# Fulham: Fans praise youngster after making Whites debut

**Fulham were knocked out of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night, but there may have been something positive for supporters to take from the 1-0 defeat to [Southampton](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49402993).**

Scott Parker [included](https://www.skysports.com/football/fulham-vs-soton/teams/420142) a number of youngsters as the Whites were beaten at Craven Cottage for the [second time](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49378596) this week, though a brief cameo from one of the club’s youth prospects had some fans looking to the future.

Tyrese Francois, who was recently named as the club’s academy [player of the year](https://www.fulhamfc.com/news/2019/august/22/academy-duo-scoop-awards), made his Fulham first-team debut after coming on as a late substitute during the slender defeat to Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side – and supporters have praised the youngster online after his runout.

Some fans are hoping for the 19-year-old to gain more minutes in the weeks and months to come, while his short-lived performance gained a positive review from the supporters.

So despite Fulham’s Carabao Cup adventure coming to an early end, it was potentially the start of a bright Whites career for Francois – as far as these fans are concerned:
