Fulham captain Danny Murphy believes Andy Johnson's return from injury will have as much of an impact at Craven Cottage as a new signing.[LNB] Striker Johnson has been out for more than nine months following knee surgery but looks set to make his comback before the end of October.[LNB]Murphy told his club's official website: "He's very close now, and I'm really pleased for him because he's been out for such a long time.[LNB]"I've been very fortunate in my career because I've never had to experience that amount of time on the sidelines.[LNB]"I couldn't say to him, 'I know what you are going through'. All I could do was offer him support.[LNB]"But he's maintained such a positive attitude throughout his injury and has worked tremendously hard to get back to where he is now. "Physically, he looks great and is as sharp as ever - it will be like a new signing for us."[LNB]
