Anthony Knockaert has sent a message to Fulham fans on social media after scoring his first goal for the club in the 4-0 win over Millwall in the Championship last night.

Fulham continued their encouraging start to the new season with a thoroughly convincing win at Craven Cottage - thanks to goals from Knockaert, Ivan Cavaleiro and Aleksandar Mitrovic.

Cavaleiro opened the scoring for Fulham with a spectacular strike from just inside the box, before Knockaert doubled their advantage with a stooping header - his first goal for the Whites since joining on a season-long loan from Brighton.

Mitrovic made it 3-0 with his third goal in as many games, smashing the ball in from the penalty spot after he had been fouled by Millwall 'keeper Bartosz Bialkowski, before Cavaleiro rounded off the victory in fine style.

After the game, Knockaert sent a message to Fulham fans on his personal Instagram account, expressing his joy at scoring his first goal for the club.

Knockaert wrote: "What a night at Craven Cottage ... happy to score my first goal for the club! Support was class today from our fans! See you on Saturday, my people".

Fulham have now won three consecutive games in the Championship and are up to third in the league table on goal difference, one point behind leaders Leeds and second-placed Swansea.

The Verdict

I'm sure Knockaert would have been delighted to score his first goal for Fulham last night and it will give his confidence a huge boost.

Knockaert was magnificent the last time he was in the Championship with Brighton and I think he'll turn out to be a fantastic signing for Fulham.

In Knockaert, Cavaleiro and Mitrovic, Fulham have arguably got the biggest attacking threat in the entire Championship.

They're more than capable of demolishing teams like they did against Millwall last night and they've got a great chance of challenging for automatic promotion this term.

After a disappointing start against Barnsley, Fulham have now recorded three straight wins in the Championship and will be full of confidence going into their next game against Nottingham Forest at the weekend.
