Fulham puffed and puffed but could not blow the Everton house down as points were shared in a goalless draw at Craven Cottage on Tuesday night.
Marco Silva's side dominated against the Toffees with a confident showing in all departments but up top with strike options failing to meet a flurry of crosses provided by Andreas Pereira, Tom Cairney and Antonee Robinson. Raul Jiminez was hooked at half time in favour of Rodrigo Muniz but little provided the threat needed to win a Premier League game.
There were plenty of positives for Fulham supporters to take from the midweek action but will feel that was a match their side should have picked up three points from. Here's how the Fulham players fared.

2. Antonee Robinson - 9
A different class of late. His pace was once again a major danger going forwards and an asset getting back on the break. Muniz had to score Robinson's late cross. Photo: Getty Images
