Don't 'panic' but will Silva get 'frustrated'?

We asked for your views on whether Fulham should engage in transfer activity with the first of the two summer transfer windows closing on Tuesday. Here are some of your comments:Gordon: I think we should wait until the first Club World Cup window is closed. We don't want to scramble for players and pay over the odds. Patience and quality are needed if we are to grow. Loan deal for Jack Grealish? Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall might be worth a go, and a striker who can score. Take from the Championship rather than a big name who costs a fortune and is no better than our current two strikers. Get Emile Smith-Rowe to be more consistent. Chris: I don't expect any business to be done on this transfer window. They shouldn't rush and panic buy before the deadline day. They need to use the time before the next transfer window to research and reflect on what the team needs to thrive next season. Ian: Though the club is in need of strengthening, it is always notoriously slow at transfers, so I can't see anyone being added before the close of the first window. I can imagine Marco getting frustrated again by the lack of movement in and out. Robbie: Definitely need to sit tight in this window on any outgoings unless it makes sense for the club and the player to sell them. Ultimately, survival will always be on most fans' minds, so any incomings should be better than anyone we have currently and bring some flair and excitement when they are on the pitch to get the crowd up!Alex: It's clear, we just missed out on Europe because of silly mistakes. Now let's correct this, make the step and sign key players, keep key players and create some squad depth at least. Keir: I wanted Fulham to at least make some advances to players. I expected exactly what has happened - nothing. Fulham will leave things to the last moment and try to grab a bargain for a mediocre player. We lack ambition under our owners.

The man with the most important job in Scottish rugby right now is essentially phoning it in from Bondi Beach, writes Calum Crowe

Franco Smith is not a man known for wild displays of emotion. Generally speaking, the Glasgow Warriors head coach usually wears a facial expression that would turn Medusa to stone. But there was a raw sense of candour in Smith's voice when he spoke to journalists in the aftermath of Glasgow's defeat to Leinster in the URC semi-finals last weekend.

England ‘not good enough' but won't panic

Three days on from an underwhelming 1-0 World Cup qualifying win over Andorra, Thomas Tuchel's side were again booed off by fans. Goals from Ismaila Sarr, Habib Diarra and Cheikh Sabaly inflicted England's first defeat to an African nation following Kane's early opener at the City Ground in Nottingham. 'Again, not really good enough,' Kane told ITV Sport. 'We had again moments; just with and without the ball we aren't quite clicking, aren't quite finding the right passes, finding the right tempo. 'One v one, we're losing duels, we're losing just that aggressive nature that we've had and we got punished, we're playing against a good side. We just weren't good enough today. 'We're not going to panic. But for sure we know we need to do better.' Defeat for the #ThreeLions against Senegal in Nottingham. — England (@England) June 10, 2025 England thought they had levelled late on through Jude Bellingham but his effort was ruled out on review for an adjudged handball by Levi Colwill. 'If you know the rules, it's not handball,' said Kane. 'It obviously puts us back in the game at 2-2 and maybe we go on and win the game so it is quite a big moment. 'But that's something to discuss with them (the match officials) afterwards.' Defeat for England was a first in four matches since the appointment of manager Tuchel. The German coach, who was unhappy with the decision of French referee Stephanie Frappart to disallow Bellingham's effort, said: 'Of course, a disappointing result, not sure if we did not maybe deserve a little bit more result-wise. 'But I felt again we were a little bit frozen, not active enough for a long time of the match. '(We) defended quite well for a long period in the first half, then our best period came when we were 2-1 down. 'We conceded the first two goals, very easy goals that we need to defend better. 'The reaction was good after we were down. I felt suddenly we were more active, more free, more fluid, more aggressive towards the opponent's goal. 'We had big chances to equalise, we 'equalised' (Bellingham's disallowed effort) and couldn't get the last one.'
