Fulham crashed to a 2-0 home defeat on the opening day of the Premier League against Crystal Palace.
The newly-promoted side started the game well with their free-flowing attacking football but they were undone by goals in either half from Jeffrey Schlupp and Wilfried Zaha.
Jokanovic will be disappointed with the start his side have made after the massive outlay this summer.
Fulham were one of the most active clubs in the transfer market this summer and they signed players with a combined worth of around £100m.
The home fans were particularly unimpressed with new signing Fabri’s display. The former Deportivo keeper had a very poor start to life at Fulham and it will be interesting to see whether the Cottagers decide to bring in Sergio Rico for the next game.
Fabri’s error allowed Zaha to score the second goal for Palace. The 30-year-old was too quick to come off his line and he opened up a favourable angle for the Palace winger to shoot.
The on-loan Sevilla keeper is expected to be the number one keeper at the club anyway.
Here is how the Fulham fans reacted to the 30-year-old’s display against the Eagles yesterday.
Fabri is the worst keeper I have ever seen

Might as well sub the keeper at this stage, Fabri is having a mare. #ffc

Rico needs to play over Fabri

i’m really not convinced by Fabri

We should learn from this. Fabri made a big mistake for the second goal, Christie and Bryan looked really good, Seri will be a big player for us, Mitro was Mitro, absolutely everywhere, we will get better once this squad has gelled.

Fabri is the worst signing of the summer in the prem. Shit Bravo.

the second whoo boy

Fabri looking dire here. Lots of good signs today as a team but some lack of composure at times. #ffc @FulhamFC #coyw pic.twitter.com/5c0uFlzhoX

The team needs to gel but there is clearly potential to have a really good side however Fabri was awful and I think Christie is not premier league quality (bad crossing and losing the ball constantly in the wide area). Seri, Chambers, LeMarchand all had a good game as new signing
