Daniel Agger is close to a first team return. The Danish defender is finally recovering from his calf injury and could be fit to face Fulham at Anfield a week tomorrow. "Agger is much better and working very, very hard. He's really pushing himself beyond what we could expect him to do. His attitude to getting back is first class," said Roy Hodgson. "We're targeting the Fulham game. The Sports Science people are telling me it's too soon and that really he needs a bit longer, but in my conversations with him he is in agreement that Fulham isn't out of the question so he's pushing it."
