Fulham manager Roy Hodgson was full of praise for his side after they kept up their fine recent run of form with a 2-1 victory at home to Tottenham Hotspur.

Goals from Simon Davies and Andrew Johnson gave the Cottagers the win and made it 11 points from their last six games for Hodgson's side.

The Craven Cottage chief said after the weekend success: "I really did think we played well.

"It was unfortunate for their goalkeeper that he made such a bad, glaring error for the first goal.

"But over the 90 minutes, the way we played and the amount of pressure we put on the Spurs defence, I don't think we've got any reason to do other than pat ourselves on the back and to claim the victory was a well deserved one.

"I thought we started well, our passing was good and we were asking the questions of Tottenham and defending in the way I wanted us to.

"I thought the two front players and in particular Bobby Zamora, gave outstanding performances. I hope he gets the credit he deserves from it.

"It was one of our better performances and something which I hope we are going to keep up."
