Hodgson warns Fulham players
Fulham boss Roy Hodgson has warned his players not to get too carried away after their impressive 1-0 victory over Everton last week. Hodgson has called for focus with games remaining against fellow strugglers Newcastle, Derby, Sunderland and Reading.
"I do feel the confidence in the team is good but I hope they are aware that one victory doesn't solve any problems," he said.
"If we start believing that because we have done quite well in the last couple of games our problems are virtually over, then we are unbelievably naive.
"Our problems are still great because we are in the relegation zone and adrift of a pack of teams just above the relegation zone.
"Everything depends on us making certain that the hunger, appetite, desire, enthusiasm and work rate is there in every game and then I would like to think if we have that, we might just have enough quality.
"In the beginning it was a tough time for me, but since I've become more comfortable with regard to the players and the way the team is playing I don't think my confidence or belief in them has wavered.
"We haven't, as yet, been able to get ourselves totally back in the mix. We are four points behind and that is better than six, but it is still a lot of points behind."
