Fulham skipper Danny Murphy foresees no problems as he begins a second stint working under Martin Jol.[LNB] With the Dutch coach having inherited the reins at Fulham from Mark Hughes, Cottagers captain Murphy has renewed acquaintances with the man who took him to Tottenham in 2006.[LNB]Things did not work out for the midfielder at White Hart Lane, though, as he was restricted to just seven league starts in 18 months.[LNB]A lack of action saw Murphy moved on to Fulham, with reports suggesting he had suffered a falling-out with Jol over his team selection.[LNB]Murphy insists that is not the case and claims he is looking forward to working under the highly-regarded tactician again in 2011/12.[LNB]"Me and Martin never fell out. Far from it," he said.[LNB]"There were a lot of different factors that I didn't talk about.[LNB]"My dad had a terminal illness during my only full season at Tottenham and it wasn't something I started talking about in the papers because I didn't think it was relevant at the time.[LNB]"When I did get a chance there was good quality about me and I only played eight or 10 games on my best run.[LNB]"We had our disagreements at the time as I wanted to play and he was playing other people, but there was more to it than that.[LNB]"But there are mitigating circumstances sometimes, which people don't see and some of it might have been my fault and some of it might have been his.[LNB]"Of course I wish it had gone better but if it had gone better then I wouldn't have had the fantastic four years I've had here at Fulham.[LNB]"He knows my quality, he knows the way I work and I have never foreseen a problem with me and him and I don't in the future."
