The 2018-19 campaign delivered a devastating return to the top flight for Fulham as The Cottagers spectacularly burnt out, finishing a crushing 19th in the Premier League, resulting in immediate relegation despite a record-breaking summer spend. Leading the charge amidst the turmoil was their talismanic forward Aleksandar Mitrović, whose 11 league goals proved vital. The season, marked by three different managers, Slaviša Jokanović, Claudio Ranieri, and caretaker Scott Parker, and a disastrous defensive record of 81 goals conceded, remains a painful but defining chapter in the club's history of struggle for Premier League stability.
