Hodgson forced into changes

Fulham boss Roy Hodgson admits he will be forced into changes for Tuesday's FA Cup replay with Swansea. The game at Craven Cottage will be Fulham's second in 48 hours following their 2-0 win over West Brom on Sunday.Hodgson has voiced his displeasure with Fulham's congested fixture list and he concedes the busy schedule will force him to rest some players and bring in others."Our people tried every avenue to get the game changed, so that we would have a better preparation time, but unfortunately they didn't succeed," said Hodgson."I don't want to make any more of a fuss of it than I'm already making by saying that one day's preparation is not enough. That's just stating an obvious fact."We have a high energy game and we ask a lot of our players."With only one day's rest, it's going to be very hard for those players to go and give the same performance again."I'm not anxious to make big changes - that's not something I want to do. But it might be forced upon me, because I want to put a team out that can run around for 90 minutes and work hard."
