That's all from me today! Going to switch off and spend some time with the family. To all Fulham fans, have a very Merry Christmas! There will be more Silva quotes at 22:30 Christmas Day, so give them a read while watching Eastenders! See you at the Bridge, COYW! #FFC

2330

Silva: "Not much time to switch off tomorrow. All of our families adapt in this situation. We have a job to do, we never lose the focus." #FFC

Silva on Tosin: "He was so important for us. It will be nice to see him. He is a good professional, and a good lad. We are going to try and win. We did what we had to do to replace him." #FFC

150

Silva: "I took the decision to play him, not because it was Southampton. We needed a created midfielder and we didn't have AP or ESR. He's going to be in contention for Chelsea." #FFC

070

Silva: "Josh King had a bad injury at the end of last season, I met with him and told him we would be with us for pre-season. Now he is knocking on the door, coming off the bench and starting. We are here to support him." #FFC

0100

Silva: "A great feeling for King. Overall, he had some good moments, some people might be surprised by his composure at the age of 17. We are not surprised. Let's keep working with him, no need to rush him." #FFC

0121

Silva: "Sasa is probably going to be ready for the game. We will assess Sander. Sasa's was a knock, it didn't look so serious." #FFC

Silva: "Let's see if ESR will be back for either Chelsea or Bournemouth." #FFC

Silva: "We embrace the challenge of Chelsea." #FFC

Silva on team news: "Too early to be sure about some players. We need to keep assessing them. Less time to recover between games. We will take a decision after tomorrow's session." #FFC

I’m at Motspur Park to speak with Marco Silva ahead of the SW6 Derby between Chelsea and Fulham on Boxing Day! #FFC

It’s Christmas Eve, but it’s also Marco Silva’s pre-match press conference today! The Fulham boss will speak to the press from 13:30 this afternoon. Any questions for Marco? 🎄⚽️ #FFC

FT 0-0. Frustrating afternoon for Fulham. First clean sheet at home this season. Wilson and Traore came close for Silva's side. Chelsea next on Boxing Day. #FFC

3111

90+2' Lukic is down holding his shoulder. #FFC

000

82' Iwobi's low driven shot is straight at Ramsdale. #FFC

000

70' Berge is down and looks hurt. #FFC

000

67' What a save from Ramsdale to deny Wilson! #FFC

000

63' Iwobi's header is easy for Ramsdale, Traore causing problems down the right. #FFC

000

61' Jimenez replaces Muniz. Traore replaces King. #FFC

56' Armstong's shot is comfortable for Leno. #FFC

48' King draws a foul after a lovely turn and run. #FFC

Fulham out for the second half. No HT changes it seems, #FFC

010

HT 0-0 | The first time it's been goalless at HT at Craven Cottage this season. Lively first ten minutes, but it's been flat ever since. Iwobi has been Fulham's main goal threat. King has done well too, some great bits of play. Fulham need a bit of a lift in the second half. #FFC

33' Nice effort from Iwobi, curling just wide. #FFC

000

26' Wilson volleys over. Sleepy game and sleepy atmosphere so far. #FFC

020

11' Dangerous low ball in from King, but Saints clear. Fulham enjoying a lot of the ball in these early stages. #FFC

000

3' Iwobi's chip is tipped away by Ramsdale! #FFC

000

Five changes for Fulham and a first start for Josh King! Bassey, Castagne, TC & Muniz also come in! Andersen returns to the bench! Berge and TC in midfield, with King in the 10? ESR doesn't make the squad. Muniz starts after his goal last week! What a moment for Josh King! #FFC

Fulham v Southampton | MD17 in the Premier League! Marco Silva’s side will be hoping to make it five games unbeaten going into the derby against Chelsea. Fulham have been on fantastic form, but are still without a clean sheet at Craven Cottage. Looking forward to covering! #FFC

2101

Silva: "It's our identity. We go into every game to win the football match. Our goal for each match is to not concede. We want out fans to enjoy it, the best way to do it is to play in a way that they would want to see." #FFC

0110

Silva: "I prefer to not concede. We scored 15 games in a row, maybe the first time that's happened in the PL with Fulham. But we want clean sheets." #FFC

0110

Silva: "Five weeks ago we played Wolves at home when they were in a bad moment, and we didn't win the game. We have spoke about the approach for this game (vs Saints) In the last four games, we should have taken more points. Southampton have lots of PL quality." #FFC

0160

Silva on Tete: "It's a big blow. We have Timothy Castagne to replace him. We was impressive last season. When he took Tete's place, Kenny couldn't win it back. This season, it's been the other way round, as Timothy arrived a little late to pre-season." #FFC

0182

Silva: "This season so far, the way we've started has been really good. But you don't achieve anything in December. We have another six months, and we have to keep improving." #FFC

0130

Silva on festive time: "It's a great moment. It's intense & busy. We like to enjoy time with out families. We know what we are going to face, so we have time to spend with out families. Boxing Day is really good, for football. As a manager, & as players we should enjoy it." #FFC

0110

Silva: "I'm really confident and ambitious in what we want to do. We have been proving this on a match-day. I still think there is room to improve. Let's keep working hard so we can perform at our best level." #FFC

0100

Silva: "Joachim Andersen is back, Pereira is suspended." #FFC

0151

Silva on team news: "Tete will be out for a long period. He doesn't need surgery, but will be out of sessions for 8-10 weeks and then longer to recover. Reed and Nelson are still out." #FFC

Obviously a great point, but again we come away from a top 6 ground feeling like we could/should've taken more. Liverpool, even with ten men just suffocated Fulham at times. Mixed feelings? I'm pretty proud of that performance. Cuenca and Diop were brilliant! #FFC
