Quotes about fulham (15 Quotes)


    We were a lot of points in front and we've dropped a few - we lost to Fulham and a couple of results didn't go our way. But we are still fighting. We are seven points clear and any team would take that at the end of the season.


    Jimmy's down talking to Fulham at the moment. He had a clause in his contract. I'm really disappointed to lose him, but he's been a fantastic player for us.

    England's World Cup-winning full-back and a long-time Fulham team-mate George Cohen has long been considered the ultimate fan of Haynes' ability to shape a game, and in the last few days the tone of his admiration has been the old amalgam of worship and affection. They said Johnny was slow, ... but over 10 yards he was greased lightning. He saw everything so quickly. He made his own time, his own space. It was the same with Bobby Charlton. Over the short and vital distances, he too was blinding.



    Wayne Bridge is a world class player and even though he is only just returning from injury, we are more than delighted to have him on board for the remainder of the season. Obviously with the World Cup around the corner Wayne is keen to play regular football and given that some big clubs were interested in signing him this window, we are delighted that he has chosen Fulham above everyone else.

    It was a special day for us because we were paying tribute to a Fulham legend and a football legend. It was great to round it off with two great goals and a wonderful display. I'm thrilled with the players. Liverpool had a lot of possession, but we were patient and when we attacked we did so with purpose.


    We spoke about lapses of concentration and things which he had to put right and, in this match, he put it all in. I'm delighted he's taken it on board. I can't consider sending him out on loan again. I've got a squad of players who are still in the cup and have some important league matches coming up. I can understand his concerns. With a World Cup in the summer he needs to impress his manager but, on that performance against Fulham, he can definitely do that.


    I believed that Chris Coleman was the right man to manage Fulham Football Club and I continue to believe that, so I am more than happy that he and Steve will be staying with us for a long time to come.


    We give 100 per cent every game, if we continue to do that we will get the rub of the green. We will be a little bit angry about it but then we will think about the Fulham game at the weekend.

    Maybe, though, there is in this compliment the seed of Giles' only doubt about the sweep of Haynes' career. I just wish, ... he had been stretched a little more. If he had gone to say Tottenham, as he might have done, we might have seen an even harder edge to his talent as he pushed for major honours. As it was, he was the King of Fulham, and sometimes I wanted him to push a little harder to leave that comfort zone.

    We have to kick on now. Fulham will be a difficult game ... but hopefully we now have the confidence to go on and get a good result. It is important to go on a winning run because we do not want to get too far behind.
