New Delhi [India]: Fulham head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has stressed the importance of ambition, attacking football and a strong mentality as he looks to turn around the club’s difficult start to the 2026-27 Premier League season.
Arbeloa has endured a difficult start to his tenure as Fulham head coach, with the club losing each of their opening three Premier League matches. Fulham will next take on Liverpool on Saturday, hoping to get their first points of the season.
Speaking on JioStar, Arbeloa said he wants Fulham to develop a clear, attacking identity, with the team playing courageously, showing personality, being aggressive without the ball and maintaining passion and ambition in every game.
“I want a team with a clear identity. I want to see a team that plays with courage and with personality. We want to be a really offensive team, really brave with the ball, and aggressive when we lose it, and ready to attack. I think we need to show that passion, that ambition every game and give everything that we have,” he said.
Arbeloa also opened on Fulham’s summer recruitment, saying the club’s ambition was reflected in its efforts to strengthen the squad after losing several key players from last season. He emphasised the importance of helping the new arrivals settle quickly, develop chemistry with their teammates and adapt to his tactical ideas.
