A tired West Ham were held to a draw as relegation-battling Fulham failed to put them to the sword.
David Moyes brought Jarrod Bowen back into the side after the winger sat out the win at Villa Park, but even with his pace the Hammers looked as if their flying start to 2021 had caught up with them.
Michail Antonio looked to be running on empty and offered an example of just how much West Ham would suffer without him in peak condition.
Fulham controlled most of the match but a goalless draw is simply not enough for them at the moment. Nine times this season they’ve now come away with just a point while Burnley’s draw at Turf Moor before kick off meant they started the game nine points from safety.
Scott Parker must be wondering what more he can do with his forwards. The Cottagers create plenty, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek at the heart of everything they do, but no one is on hand to finish. Ademola Lookman dragged a first half effort wide while Ivan Cavaliero headed straight at Lukasz Fabianksi before, in the second half, blazing well over the bar.
