Fulham moved back into third place in the Championship on Saturday after they beat Huddersfield Town at Craven Cottage and closed the gap on Leeds United, who suffered a surprise home defeat courtesy of Wigan Athletic. 

Scott Parker’s side raced into a three-goal lead through Bobby Reid, Tom Cairney and Aleksandar Mitrovic – however, the pick of the bunch was scored by Fulham’s 27-year-old forward.

Were Fulham right to sign Bobby Reid on a permanent deal?

Yes

Yes

No

No

Reid took the ball down on his chest by the touchline before dancing his way through a number of defenders and finishing emphatically.  It was a goal the club’s fans thoroughly enjoyed.


Others were keen to highlight the quality of the pass from Michael Hector in the lead-up.

What do we think?

Bobby Reid has only started in 60% of Fulham’s Championship fixtures this season but in his 29 appearances so far, he has contributed directly to nine goals with this one arguably being the best of the lot.

Having spent the first half of the season on loan in London from Cardiff City, the Cottagers moved to make the deal permanent for an undisclosed fee last month.  As Scott Parker’s side look to hunt down West Bromwich Albion and Leeds in the automatic promotion spots, they will be hoping to see more of that from their exciting forward player.
