Davies sets sights on top-half finish

Thu, 16 Feb 15:18:29 2012

Simon Davies wants Fulham to push on and achieve a top-10 finish this season.

The Cottagers have struggled for consistency over the course of the campaign, thanks in no small part to their attempts to juggle domestic and European exertions.

Their Europa League exit means Fulham's attention is now squarely on the Barclays Premier League, where they sit 12th after beating Stoke at the weekend.

Davies hopes the 2-1 win can prove a catalyst for further success over the coming weeks as they face teams in close proximity in the table, with QPR, Wolves, Aston Villa and Swansea all coming up.

"The manager did point it out to us that going into these games on the back of a win would give us that little bit of extra confidence," the midfielder told the club's official website. "We want to really push on and get into the top half of the table with another couple of good results.

"We all obviously know it'll be very hard still because they're all fighting for survival down the bottom there but they're games we have got to be looking to go and take the initiative in. We're obviously above them [QPR, Wolves and Aston Villa] in the table on merit so we've got to go and impose ourselves in those games."

  1. Never mind that, I want a top four finish, but­ we'll never get that with JOl's chopping and­ changing. I reckon half the team will want away come­ the end of the season, and if members of the main squad­ play in less than 10% of the games, they can terminate­ their contracts, and just walk away. This Jol is­ becoming a total disaster!
