One week after missing Fulham’s home loss to Everton, U.S. men’s national team left back Antonee Robinson made his return to action.
Robinson played 89 minutes in the Cottagers’ 3-2 comeback victory over Brentford, moving up to 10th place in the league standings. The 27-year-old won the most duels (11), completed three dribbles, and made three tackles, delivering a strong return to action.
Robinson has been Mr. Consistency for Fulham this season, missing just one league match due to injury. With larger European clubs like Liverpol and Manchester City circling, Robinson will aim for a strong season finale against the Citizens on May 25.

Is there any word on McKennie? I read he was subbed off late due to injury…
The games they play. Not complaining it actually is good Robinson came back early from injury. When sites report players injuries they need to be accurate on the return date.
It depends on the country and the league. If a guy isn’t in a top league, you are never going to get accurate reports. Netherlands you are very rarely going to get good information because they have strict medical privacy laws, England you are typically getting pretty good information because of their gambling culture, but wait until Wednesday or Thursday, early week is usually just guessing. With Jedi it’s an over use injury so it appears they’re giving him every other week off to rest his knee.
Have a feeling we will see Downs get a call up.
Pulisic and AC Milan still had a shot to qualify for Europe competition for next season. Had Milan defeated Roma, they would have both been on 63 points heading into the final game. But, one of Pulisic’s highly rated euro teammates got himself sent off for a stupid elbow to the chest of a Roma defender. Glad to see Musah back on the field.
Thought it was a bad decision to buy Santi Gimenez. But maybe he comes good next season.
Is there a team in Europe that underachieves more than AC Milan? With all that talent, a spot in UCL or Europa is expected. But then they lose to Bologna in the Coppa Italia just days after beating them 3-1. They then lose to Roma in dreadful fashion in a crucial game to win a Euro spot. So disappointing.
PN,
Too many cooks
It’s like watching a constant power struggle with new contestants every couple of months and I’m talking off the field.
CP has a decision to make. If he wants to get back to winning big things he may have to leave.
