We'll try hard to do Manchester United a favour claims Fulham's Roy HodgsonMar 24 2009

FULHAM manager Roy Hodgson insists his side can still have a major say in the destination of the Premier League title.

The Cottagers still have to face Chelsea and Liverpool before the end of the season and Hodgson’s side are brimming with
confidence after their 2-0 defeat of league leaders Manchester United on Saturday.

Hodgson is already relishing Liverpool’s visit to Craven Cottage on Saturday week and their trip to Stamford Bridge in May.

“We will be doing our very best to make certain that the performances we give against Liverpool and Chelsea are in no way
inferior to the performance we gave against Manchester United,” declared Hodgson. “We will work very hard, we will do our very best, and we will try and get points off them.”

But Hodgson was quick to warn Anfield manager Rafael Benitez and Chelsea’s Guus Hiddink that they will have no easy ride
against them.

“I hope they won’t be thanking me when we play them, because there is no interest from my point of view in favouring any of the teams at the top,” said Hodgson.


“I can assure all Manchester United fans, and certainly my friend Sir Alex Ferguson, that we’ll be working every bit as hard, and trying every bit as hard, to beat Liverpool and Chelsea.”

Bring it on

Yeah, I can Danny Murphy going thru the motions for that game!
