Fulham defender Michael Madl admits shoring up the defence is still a work in progress.

Whites were in control at 2-1 against Derby on Saturday - and then the back four and everyone else went AWOL to allow Alex Pearce a free header from a corner and the equaliser.

Have a second look in the video above.

Boss Slavisa Jokanovic was left frustrated by the ‘mistakes’ in defence. Madl says set-pieces are still a bone of contention.

However, the man who came on for the injured Tomas Kalas reckons overall, Whites deserved more from the 90 minutes - and it’s hard to argue.

He said: “The game could have gone in any direction but over 90 mins.

One of them blocked one of our players like we tried to do it in training; but we have to defend set pieces better.”
