Fulham boost as striker Bobby Zamora nears full fitness
On the way back: Bobby Zamora ready to face relegation battle[LNB]Fulham striker Bobby Zamora will return to first-team training in two weeks with his rehabilitation progressing smoothly. [LNB]Zamora could be available to play next month after recovering from the broken leg sustained against Wolves in September. [LNB]'Bobby's got a very detailed programme for the next two or three weeks,' said Fulham manager Mark Hughes. [LNB]'He will be finishing off with the physios and doing work specific to his position. [LNB]'Next week we'll get him involved with warm-ups and the technical things with the senior group. [LNB]'Hopefully the week after that he will be in with the group and taking part in training as normal. [LNB]'It's a case of building him up and it will be a number of weeks before he can be considered. [LNB]'When he is in the group, hopefully he will be two or three weeks away from selection.'[LNB] Fulham have suffered in the absence of their England striker, who scored 19 goals in all competitions last season. [LNB]Only recently have they started finding the net with any regularityand they host Tottenham in tomorrow's FA Cup fourth-round tie in a farmore comfortable position than when the London rivals last met. [LNB] On New Year's Day the Cottagers succumbed to a 1-0 defeat at White Hart Lane at a time when Hughes was facing questions over his future. [LNB]Two Barclays Premier League wins later and Fulham appear more settled with Hughes even insisting Spurs will approach their showdown with anxiety. [LNB]'We've played well in both games against Spurs this season. On January 1 we matched them,' he said. 'For long periods we dictated the pace of the game and possession, had chances to get back on level terms and did really well. [LNB]'We are going up against a very good team, a very accomplished side with lots of good individual talent, but we know we can compete. [LNB]'We have given a better account of ourselves against Spurs than most teams have.[LNB] 'Maybe that will give them more apprehension than us.'[LNB] Liverpool boss Dalglish not satisfied despite midweek win over FulhamKenny Jackett tells in-demand striker Steve Morison: Sign a new deal and stay at Millwall FULHAM FC: All the latest news from across the web[LNB] [LNB] Explore more:People: Bobby Zamora, Mark Hughes Places: London, United Kingdom
