Schwarzer believes in Boro
Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer believes his former club Middlesbrough are too good to go down.[LNB] Schwarzer turned in a fantastic display against his former employers on Saturday to deny them all three points. The goalless draw leaves Boro in the final relegation place, three points from safety.[LNB]But the big Aussie, signed from Boro on a free in the summer, feels his old team-mates have what it takes to beat the drop.[LNB]"They're not one of the worst sides in the division and on that performance they shouldn't be in that position," he told the Daily Star.[LNB]"Unfortunately that's the way it goes. Three teams have to go and if you don't accumulate the points over 38 games you go down.[LNB]"The league table doesn't lie. You're in that position because of various reasons.[LNB]"You can't pinpoint one match and say it's our fault because we've taken two points off them.[LNB]"I had a lot of good times here and still follow their fortunes closely. But their predicament is nothing to do with me, it's not my concern."[LNB]Former Riverside favourite Schwarzer, who spent over a decade on Teesside, was on the receiving end of some banter from his former team-mates but had the last laugh with fantastic saves from Tuncay, Tony McMahon and Stewart Downing.[LNB]"He was man of the match for me and that says it all," said Downing.[LNB]"I joked with him afterwards that he didn't do that very regularly for us! He made some tremendous saves and played really well."[LNB]Schwarzer's move to Craven Cottage now seems justified with Fulham in 8th and pushing for a European place and he admits that qualification would be his dream season ending.[LNB]"The ideal scenario for me is Fulham getting into Europe and Boro staying up. If they went down I'd be sad because I've got a lot of friends there."[LNB]
