We asked for your thoughts after Sunday's Premier League game between Tottenham and Fulham.

Here are some of your comments:

Tottenham fans

Paul: We just did not play with any intensity and we were lucky to get a draw. Unfortunately Son is a shadow of the player he was. We should have substituted him off instead of Werner. Maddison is becoming too peripheral in these important league games. Davies had a good solid game but Dragusin needs to improve his awareness. He gets caught out too often.

Terry: True to form, Spurs do it again. Thank goodness for Ben Davies and our goalkeeper, they were both terrific. Son certainly had an off-day, but so did a few others. If Kulusevski was fit enough to come on as a substitute then why didn't he start the match? Spurs' passing was very slipshod. They must have thought it was going to be an easy game - wrong.

Alexander: Ange, just not good enough! You are stuck on a 4-3-3 system that does not work for us. Swallow your pride and change back to the 4-2-3-1 system that worked very well against Manchester City, especially when we have such a weak defence.

Emilio: We can't be so inconsistent and expect to win anything. Having been starved of trophies for so many years, I am sure that a lot of fans - like me - would rather win ugly than look good and concede goals that we shouldn't. Don't blame the fans Ange - if you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen.

Fulham fans

James: Fulham back at the races after last weekend's debacle. We turned up and really took the game to Spurs and, again, strange moments will be what we remember the game for, aside from it being a positive away result against a very good side.

Lucas: It was a good performance for a very good point. Despite the difficulty of the game, we should have come away with triple the points, if we were clinical enough. It nearly cost us the game. It was a good performance overall though, and a good bounce back from last weekend.

Dave: Given the fact that we almost gifted Spurs a goal in the first 50 seconds, we really took the game to them. We competed well in all of the key areas. Our full-backs were outstanding. We just needed a striker to put the ball in the back of the net! Bring on Brighton.

Bob: Frustrating... another two points dropped. We do need to finish teams off. It was a shame about the red card, but still Tom got his goal and helped us to get a precious point. We have a strong side now and we shouldn't struggle to overcome teams. Inspired substitutions by Marco.

Fulham are unbeaten across their last eight Premier League London derbies (W4 D4), the club's longest ever such run.

Tom Cairney scored an away Premier League goal for the first time since March 2010, when he struck for Hull City against Everton. At 14 years and 269 days, it is the longest ever gap between two away goals for a player in the competition, beating Cristiano Ronaldo's previous record (12 years and 235 days).

Fulham move into the top half of the Premier League with this point, as their quietly consistent season continues.

They have now scored in 12 successive top flight matches for the first time since 1967.

Marco Silva's biggest headache at present is his midfield, with the Cottagers suddenly low on numbers.

Tom Cairney will miss three games after his red card, while Sasa Lukic will be absent in midweek after his fifth yellow of the season.

Andreas Pereira is also a question mark, not starting a league game for the first time this season in a week where he was quoted by a Brazilian outlet saying he was sad not to leave Fulham in the summer.

Pereira says he was misquoted, and Silva said the midfielder mised the Spurs game for fitness reasons rather than any interview.

Fulham boss Marco Silva has been speaking to BBC Match of the Day after his side held Tottenham to a draw away from home: "I think that everybody should recognise that the team who deserved to win this afternoon was ourselves. We deserved to win.

"We played our way, with our identity, on the pitch. Myself, the players and the fans should be proud of it. We should have been leading the score with the chances we had. We have to be realistic, Tottenham had chances as well."

On Tom Cairney's red card: "Firstly, I know him. Tom Cairney is not the player for that, everybody knows. I have to be realistic and honest with you, everybody knows I am the first one asking him to be more aggressive in the right way, to keep some principles as a midfielder in that situation, but he is not the type of player to do that type of thing.

"He stamped on his leg and, of course, looking through the images it should be a red card and we have to accept it, knowing that Tom Cairney was really unlucky because he is not that type of player."

On the reaction to going down to 10 men: "What a reaction from us. The reaction was good - 15 minutes with 10 men and the reality is that Tottenham didn't create one chance."

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against a variety of guests.

For week 13, he takes on boxer Sunny Edwards who is a Chelsea fan.

Sutton's prediction: 3-1

I love watching Tottenham and what they do. They were missing Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero against Manchester City last week but went to Etihad Stadium, played brilliantly and kept a clean sheet too.

The big worry for Spurs is Guglielmo Vicario got injured in that game. Fraser Forster is an excellent goalkeeper, who has had a great career, but he is not renowned for being brilliant with his feet.

Forster can appear a bit clunky on the ball, a little bit like I did when I played for Chelsea, and that could be an issue because of the way Ange Postecoglou wants Tottenham to play.

Fulham were on the opposite end of a four-goal scoreline at home to Wolves last weekend but, going off what I've seen from them this season, that is likely to be a one-off.

The Whites have scored in every game this season, apart from their opening-weekend defeat at Old Trafford, and they will be dangerous here too.

So I don't think this will be easy for Spurs but, if their forwards play like they did against City, they will come out on top again.

Sunny's prediction: 2-1

Tottenham are looking dangerous. I don't want to say they will win, but I think they will.

Fulham boss Marco Silva has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Premier League game at Tottenham (kick-off 13:30 GMT).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

• Silva confirmed that Harrison Reed, Joachim Andersen and Jorge Cuenca will all be unavailable, with Andersen being "out for some games", while Ryan Sessegnon is a "doubt".

• On how they respond to the heavy defeat by Wolves last weekend: "We have bounce-back mentality. Of course the next one is always important. It's important to analyse and be clear with the message to players to make them understand deeply what happened in the game."

• He added: "In the game, we were there - that result and score does not reflect what has happened on the pitch, that is the first thing. We were the best team on pitch for first 30 minuets - clearly. We did score, hit the crossbar, the game was going in direction it has been at home for us. We conceded a goal where we were flat and not aggressive enough and that changes the story of the game completely."

• Opponents Tottenham's "identity is clear and the way Ange [Postecoglou] wants the team to play" and "they have the capacity to create different problems for the opposition" so Fulham will have to be "brave" in the way they play against them.

• On if they can take inspiration from what Tottenham are doing in regularly competing for Europe: "We know what we are going to do and the ambition - no-one is going to take from ourselves. The way I see football, I am not going to be unrealistic... Sometimes you can compare things, but you have to be realistic. The key for you to improve and move forward your ambitions, the first thing is to be realistic and understand the reality of our football club."

• On Antonee Robinson's comments that the team feel they can go toe to toe with everyone: "Really important but really nice for me to feel the players have this thought about the game and face the game and prepare themselves. It is a a message that has been throughout the football club the past three seasons."

• On if they are ahead of where he expected despite the loss to Wolves: "We lost a chance to get clear and get three points in that game. Being us and reaching certain standards we want to reach it was a winnable game. You have to be a certain level in Premier League. Before that game everyone was saying we were brilliant. We had a bad game for us but you have to react and bounce back. We cannot let one game take away the good things we have been doing."

No team is on a longer scoring streak in the Premier League this season than Fulham, with their 11-game run their joint-longest ever in the competition (also 11 between April and September 2007).

However, only Brentford (14) have dropped more points from winning positions in the Premier League than Fulham (13) this season.

Fulhamish.

Every set of fans has a phrase that describes something they feel could only ever happen to their club.

And Fulhamish is the only word I can find to sum up the events of this weekend. It certainly feels like only Fulham could be enjoying their best start to a Premier League season, be looking to win their third game in a row at home against 19th-placed Wolves… and lose 4-1.

But we are where we are - and that lack of real consistency is one of a select few criticisms you can level at Marco Silva.

We enjoyed five and seven-game unbeaten runs in the Championship as we romped to the title, but in the Premier League we have achieved more than two wins in a row just once. It is the sort of thing that separates a top-eight side from the rest of the pack.

Figure out the reasons behind this, and Fulham are suddenly competing in Europe. But these increasingly regular international breaks do not help. In the 10 games we have played since returning from an enforced break, we have won just three, drawing two and losing five.

These constant pauses stifle any chance of building momentum for clubs that do not have the squad depth of a Liverpool or Manchester City. And three of them before we have even played a dozen domestic games feels like overkill.

It is Tottenham up next, and "Spursy" is a term that has made it into the wider football lexicon. So, the fact that they just pumped Manchester City at the Etihad actually fills me with a strange sense of confidence. Perhaps we can give their fans a reason to trot the phrase back out.

Beating Big Ange's men at their place for only the third time this century just one week after an embarrassing home defeat? That really would be Fulhamish.

We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Fulham and Wolves, which the Old Gold won 4-1.

Here are some of your comments:

Fulham fans

SJLM2: Embarrassing. Unbelievably poor against a side hungry for a win and who deservedly earned it. After a decent start to the season we are now starting to pay for the lack of an out-and-out striker and with Harry Wilson on the bench we are hardly helping ourselves. The defending was woeful, we MUST be better in the January window.

Rosie: Woeful. Must be one of the worse defeats at home for a long time.

Adam: We looked sluggish, and our main enemy this season of a blunt attack came back to bite us again - only this time it was coupled with a shaky defence, sloppy midfield and panic mentality. Fair play to Wolves though, they were excellent. Hopefully it's a one-off and we'll still finish top half. Silva needs to find some goals, and quick.

David: First quarter of the match was a good performance by Fulham but as soon as Wolves scored (against run of play) it started to go wrong and I felt like we could lose it. Using all five subs was a gamble but, in truth, I believe we would not have fared any better with 11.

Wolves fans

Malcolm: A tremendous win. Despite going behind the players worked hard and showed their commitment to Gary O'Neil. Cuhna and Lemina led the pack and the Brazilian has been one of the Premier League's star players over the first 12 games. Hopefully he doesn't follow Neves, Kilman and Neto out of the club any time soon.

Mike: Brilliant result with a patched-up defence. Wolves were very much the better team in the second half and Cunha is a special talent. With the players we have we should not be in a relegation battle. Hopefully we can bring in an experienced central defender in January and look forward to mid-table at least. Trust Gary to get the job done.

Simon: Well that's not the result I expected. But it's the type of result this team, on paper, should be producing. Is it coming together like Gary said? Not sure... ask me again at Christmas.

Callum: Great performance from Wolves. After a tough run of fixtures I believe we can now push up the table with the games we have coming up. Mateus Cunha showed his class once again, this guy will keep us in the league. Gary O'Neil made the right subs again in the second half. After two wins from two, the squad's morale has been boosted. Trust me.

A tale of two managers.

The contrasting expressions on Marco Silva and Gary O'Neil's faces upon full time told the entire story.

O'Neil beaming like a Cheshire cat, fist pumping the away end, having secured an emphatic and pivotal first league win away from home.

Silva the opposite as TV cameras zoomed in on his pensive, gloomy disposition. Had his tactical decision cost Fulham the game? All substitutions used up at 71 minutes before Joachim Andersen limped off and did not return. A goal down but time on the clock and hopes of a result still very much alive… until you are forced to see those ticking minutes out with 10 men.

Silva is so often heralded for tactical genius, his recent use of Harry Wilson and the midfielder's subsequent late goals off the bench serve as an example.

But how the managerial pendulum swings. Two managers, two differing approaches to substitutions and two very different endings to this tale.

Fulham manager Marco Silva, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It was really weird game. That’s the Premier League. It’s easy for us to say we were really unfortunate. It was a situation [where we had to] play with 10 men without a red card.

"You can’t concede the way we conceded the equaliser. It was great from a top, top player, but it was different from our [own perspective].

"We’ve been a team who have been creating. It’s really important for us to keep compact, because we have the ability to create the moments. The positives are there.

"We can’t just be looking at the score. The two goals when we were with 10 men didn't reflect the game, in my opinion."

On his substitutions: "I wanted to bring fresh players, with Kenny Tete on a yellow card. I probably should have kept that one in my pocket, but the yellow card probably rushed my decision to bring on Timo [Castagne] as well."
