The Baggies suffered a 5-0 loss at home to Manchester City on Tuesday evening to remain in 19th place on the league standings, having won just twice all season.
"A few home truths needed to be said [between players and coaching staff], it had to be done now because there's a short period of time before the next game," West Brom manager Sam Allardyce revealed following his team's defeat to City.
"These next two games [Fulham and Sheffield United] really stand high in what we need to do. I needed to get my feelings to the players out of the way. They needed to air their views, which is fine as we are all in it together.
"I was disappointed in the performance and to get it out the way means we can learn from it and we don't see it again. I can accept defeat but not like that. What will determine our fate comes in the next two games. A win and a draw is the least we have to try to get.
"We have got to work out what it is, playing at home. There's no pressure from the fans so we have to work out that."
Fulham head into matches against Brighton & Hove Albion and West Brom this week in 18th spot on the league standings. The Cottagers are winless in eight matches following back-to-back defeats to Chelsea and Manchester United.

Goals from Bobby De Cordova-Reid and Ola Aina led Fulham to a 2-0 win in the reverse fixture at Craven Cottage earlier this season.
