'We can't blame it (the crash) for the pain.' Of course, it will impact us for the remainder of the season, but Heckingbottom says "I don't think it affected us" (in the game).

BY IAN LADYMAN, an exhilarating interview, Willian did not expect to be back in England so quickly. Not at Fulham. Not anywhere. As the 34-year-old left Arsenal for his boyhood club Corinthians in 2021, it seemed as though he had completed a career circle. He had made it in England, winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and League Cup in seven years with Chelsea, and it was time to give the club that had supported him something back.
