Fulham midfielder Dickson Etuhu admits victory over Blackpool was massive.

Before kick-off just two points separated Mark Hughes' side and travelling Blackpool.

"This was a massive win for us, make no mistake about that," Etuhu told . "Going into the game there wasn't much between the two teams, but we've come away and opened up a bit of a gap.

"From start to finish we played very well. We knew that they were a good side and one that plays a lot of attacking football. We had a plan and it worked for us - we closed them down quickly, exploited the gaps and took our chances.

"It was good to see Bobby back and doing what he does best, he was fantastic today - he's unplayable when he's like that. Those goals will have done him the world of good."
