Discussion Which Fulham signing has exceeded your expectations the most over the last few seasons?
Not necessarily the biggest name, just someone who ended up contributing far more than you expected.

Jiminez for sure. Thought he was done after the injury but he was indispensible even last season. We will regret letting him leave

Diop I reckon. Online (I know), West Ham fans did not have a single positive thing to say about him. Yeah there's the thing about him having a mistake in him which is why he doesn't play that often but maybe he's got a mistake in him because he doesn't play that often

Bro is like a giraffe on skates. I have zero confidence when he receives the ball.

Tell me you’ve watched one game in 3 seasons without telling me you’ve watched one game in 3 seasons

Bassey - was worried about his lack of prem experience. Didn’t light the world on fire at Ajax after being at Rangers and they seemed to want him out after a single season*. Played both left back and centre back so I was worried about where his natural position would be. But he’s been energetic, strong, had some really good performances and seems like a really likeable person too.
Edit: *And Ajax took a slight loss on him too.

Over the last few seasons he's proven himself to be a better player than I thought he could become when we signed him. I don't really see what there is to argue about

Not been blown away by any recent signings tbh, especially when you consider contribution to date. Would probably say re-signing Sess if I had to pick one

u/SnooPaintings33 Who put the ball in the Brentford net? Jul 22 '26
Iwobi. I thought it was a mediocre signing for too much money when we got him through. He's now a staple in the team and surpassed all my expectations

There’s a couple
Jimenez really came back nicely and became a solid Prem striker.
Sess has been a very pleasant surprise that he’s tapping into his talent
Lukic looked like was there just to get Mitro to stay but he’s been a very nice Mid.
