Fulham boss Marco Silva has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game against West Ham (kick-off 15:00 BST).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Carlos Vinicius is "out of the options" for West Ham at the weekend due to a small injury. Silva said: "All of [the] other players, they are going to be available."
On Reiss Nelson joining the club on a season-long loan: "We were looking for a wide player and we are really happy to have him with us. We can see straight away that he is a skilful player."
Silva spoke about naming the same starting XI: "If I am not happy then I will change and that is what you expect. It is clear that some of our signings were late in the window and it takes time. It is not easy for them to come and start playing straight away. They have to show their quality but it takes time to adapt."
On opponents West Ham: "West Ham have quality in all positions. You can see straight away that Julen [Lopetegui] is trying to get them to play a different way. I know the manager well and he will be trying to put his stamp on the football club. You can see they are starting to play his way and he is changing the style. They can punish you as they have top quality players. It will require top concentration from us. It will be a tough game, the first London derby of the season."
On Adama Traore's start to the season: "It’s been a good start for him. He had a good pre-season and that is always important. It is good to see him arriving in spots in the box as that’s what I’m demanding from him. But football is not just about assists, he has to score goals and it shows the work we’re doing with him makes sense."

Who has made the most Premier League appearances for Fulham?
Answer will be revealed at 17:00 BST
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham won both Premier League meetings with West Ham last season, by an aggregate score of 7-0. They have not won three consecutive league games against the Hammers since between October 1965 and October 1966.
However, West Ham have 16 victories in 28 Premier League games against the Whites - their best win-rate against any team they have faced at least five times in the competition (57%).

Image source, Getty ImagesThere are few things more satisfying in football than bellowing out "he's one of our own" - and that's why we were so pleased to see Ryan Sessegnon return to the club this summer.
One name set to join him on the team sheet, at some point during this campaign, is Josh King. The 17-year-old won 'Scholar of the Year' last season and he has been handed a first-team squad number this term.
The cherry on the cake? The youngster captained England Under-18s last weekend.
King is the latest jewel in our academy crown. Fulham has long been considered a great place to develop future stars – with Moussa Dembele, Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho all coming through our youth set-up.
Under Huw Jennings, it won't be long until Motspur Park is talked about in the same breath as Hale End, in terms of its footballing pedigree, but we haven't been so good at integrating these starlets into our first-team fold or holding on to them if they break through.
Elliott and Carvalho were gobbled up by Liverpool for a pittance – and the latter has ended up at Brentford just two years later anyway.
Dembele went north of the border to Celtic for a paltry fee, after scoring for fun in the Championship, only for Brendan Rodgers to speak like he scouted him from the Moroccan second division!
Then there are the players who got away - the most notable is Matt O'Riley. He couldn't get a game under Scott Parker during our 2019-20 promotion campaign, so it was no surprise when he declined a contract offer and left for MK Dons in search of first-team football.
A successful stint at Celtic preceded his £25m move to Brighton this summer. Recent ankle surgery aside, I think he will be a success for the Seagulls.
Carvalho was our last academy graduate to make his first-team debut, but that was back in 2020. King will be the man to end that drought – and it will happen soon. As the famous commentary line goes: 'Remember the name...'

The Premier League's summer transfer window saw clubs spend almost £2bn in all.
Data from Footballtransfers.com, external shows the biggest net spend by a club - that’s all the money spent minus all that came in from sales - was Brighton.
The Seagulls had a net spend of £153.5m.
On the flip side, the club who generated the biggest net summer profit on transfers was Manchester City, who made £115.8m, thanks in large part to the sale of Julian Alvarez.
Fulham had a net spend of £22.9m.
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham winger Martial Godo has signed a new deal that will see him extend his stay at the club until summer 2028.
The 21-year-old arrived at Craven Cottage from Margate in March 2022, making his first team debut five months later against Crawley Town in the Carabao Cup.
Godo spent last season on loan at Wigan Athletic, scoring eight goals in 34 appearances for the League One side. He also featured heavily in the Cottagers' pre-season preparations this summer.
Speaking to the club after signing his new deal, Godo said: "This season, I would like to make my Premier League debut and make a few more appearances, possibly chipping in with some goals and assists along the way.
"But, mostly, I just want to keep growing and improving around the amazing coaching staff and players at this club, giving myself the best possible chance to keep edging closer to showing the potential I have as a young player."
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham winger Reiss Nelson says he "couldn't turn down" the offer to move to Craven Cottage on loan, after manager Marco Silva "convinced" the Arsenal academy graduate about his project for this season.
Nelson revealed the behind-the-scenes of his transfer deadline day move on FFCtv, external: "Deadline day was a lot of waiting around. My brother is my agent so it was a bit easier because he lives around the corner from me.
"I was just waiting at his house and all of my family were there as well. It was a bit up and down, we didn't really know what was going on, but I think I made the right decision in the end.
"I spoke with the boss and he convinced me about the project. It was something I couldn't turn down. The boss likes to play out from the back. He likes inverted wingers that can play with either foot and combine with the striker. I think that complements where I want to play."
The 24-year-old said there is "competition in every position" at Craven Cottage and outlined what the club's targets are for this season: "The ambitions are really high. I think we have got great players in every position and that is something every team wants. That is something we can thrive on.
"We just want to play good attacking football, be able to go to any of the grounds and not be afraid of the top teams, and show what we can do. I think that will be really exciting for the fans.
"Just know that we are going to be pushing for every single game."

Image source, Getty ImagesWe asked you for your views on how Fulham have started the season - and where you thought they might finish.
More than 90% of respondents to our poll on Wednesday put Fulham's finishing spot between sixth and 16th with little danger of relegation or threatening the European places.
Here's are some of your comments:
Mike: I believe we will finish 10th/11th this season The one bad thing about the transfer window was the lack of a decent striker. I can’t see Raul Jimenez or Rodrigo Muniz troubling most keepers. Hopefully Alex Iwobi and Adama Traore can get a few goals between them.
Sean: One good thing - proven Premier League players being signed. One bad thing - we don’t seem to have replaced the bite and aggression in midfield that Joao Palhinha gave us. Also, let’s give Muniz some time people. He has all the attributes to be brilliant and he’s earned a little patience after last season.
Simon: The board have really backed Marco Silva. It was unfortunate we were unable to sell Carlos Vinicius but we made some really good signings and also reduced our average of the squad. I would have liked to have the option to buy Reiss Nelson instead of just a loan.
Tim: A perfect example of a mid-table team. Fulham have settled back into the Premier League and are now a fixture in it. If they ever do find another clinical striker, Europe beckons. It should be an enjoyable season regardless.
Paul: Jimenez and Muniz are simply not good enough for this difficult league and we never gave Jay Stansfield a chance. Without a striker who can give us at least 15 goals a season, we're not getting into the top half by relying on the midfielders and wingers to provide the goals.
The dust has settled on the transfer window, the Premier League is well and truly back, and we are into the first international break of 2024-25.
So we want you to predict where Fulham will finish in the Premier League this season - thinking about the start to the campaign and summer transfer business.
And also, please tell us what is the one thing - good or bad - you have learned about the Whites so far in the campaign?

There are three things in life I absolutely detest: traffic jams, hoovering, and the September international break. But this season I’m actually grateful for it.
When the transfer window closed on Friday night, we’d brought in a total of six first-team players and lost five - six if you include Jay Stansfield, who was set to be included a lot more this season before Birmingham found £15m down the back of their League One sofa.
It was a nine out of 10 window, in my humble opinion - and I think we did about two windows’ worth of squad transitioning in just one. Relatively early moves, like the swoops for Emile Smith Rowe and Ryan Sessegnon, were crucial to achieving that, but the fact remains that when there’s so much change, it takes time for the new players to bed in and for everyone to gel.
Three games in, we have only seen glimpses of our new arrivals, bar Smith Rowe. Sander Berge and Joachim Andersen played in the Carabao Cup in midweek, but - Andersen’s cross-field assist aside - it was clear the pair were not quite up to speed.
It is hard replacing your tyres at 50mph - so it is safe to say Marco Silva will appreciate this two-week window to get this house in order. Berge and Andersen are likely to be away for part of that on international duty, but the rest of the new recruits - including deadline day signing Reiss Nelson - will be at Motspur Park, understanding how they can slot in to serve the greater good.
That could mean it is a different animal altogether that faces West Ham on 14 September.
And, considering not many of us could feel hard done by anyway after picking up four points from nine, we could still be in for a pretty special season.

Image source, PA MediaWe asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Ipswich and Fulham.
Here are some of your comments:
Ipswich fans
Jonathon: A very promising performance. Ipswich certainly were not outclassed by Fulham - actually they shaded the game. Liam Delap was great, Omari Hutchinson had his first good game of the season and the defence was pretty solid. Two issues: Leif Davis continues to struggle defensively, and I am yet to be convinced by Arijanet Muric.
Matt: A good game, but I have to say that I am a little disappointed with the result. Given how much we pushed and that we played well, I feel we probably should have edged the win. But, it's a point on the board and a point closer to safety! Looking at the teams around us, I think we've started quite well and I think we will be OK this season.
Charlie: I believe this a good point for Ipswich. Fulham are established in the Premier League and will be pushing for a top-half finish this season. Ipswich are just missing some cutting edge in the moments it matters most.
Matt: Excellent all-round performance, fully deserving of a point if not more. Brilliant debut for Kalvin Phillips and thought Delap was excellent again. Really need to look at how we deal with cover for Davis when he's forward as Fulham exploited that to score.
Fulham fans
JD: I can’t see where our goals will come from this season. We don’t have a clinical forward. We still haven’t replaced Aleksandar Mitrovic.
Paul: Very disjointed performance by Fulham. We were slow moving the ball and had trouble moving past the Ipswich press. Expect the new signings to take a while to bed in.
Brian: Right from the get-go, Ipswich were physical and full of energy while it seemed like Fulham were still on holiday and needed oceans of time just dwelling on the ball. Two good goals and an even game that Ipswich shaded. Fulham need to show more energy and fight and are too lightweight for me. But, a point is a point. I'll take it.
Will: Not our greatest outing by any means and despite having possession we didn’t do anything with it. Adama Traore is continuing to improve so that’s a plus. Just one we need to move on from. A point's a point.

Image source, Getty ImagesAdama Traore now has two goals in his last four games for Fulham, albeit spread over the end of last season and the start of the current one.
The 28-year-old has only started four times for the Cottagers since his free transfer a year ago, but the signs in his display at Ipswich were encouraging.
His pace and strength are undoubted assets, but if he can add more goals as the season progresses then he will be key to how Fulham fare.
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham manager Marco Silva, speaking to BBC MOTD: "The reaction from us was good, we scored a good equaliser and after that we took a step forward and were completely in control.
"The second half was a lot more difficult for us, we were not able to control the game the way we liked. We were solid, we did not give many things but we did not create.
"We should create a lot more when we are on the ball, we have to be more effective in our build up and have more chances to score."
On the impressive Adama Traore: "He created some good moments for other players, he is in good shape, he is helping the team and the reason why he is playing is because he can be decisive for us if he can take the right decisions."
Image source, Getty ImagesFulham’s Antonee Robinson has provided an assist in each of his last two Premier League appearances.
It is the first time that the defender has been directly involved in a goal in successive league games since December 2023 (run of three).
