Ex-Fulham boss Hughes happy Zamora in England squad

Former Fulham boss Mark Hughes is happy seeing Bobby Zamora in the England squad.

Hughes feels Zamora can definitely make an impact with England.

He told talkSPORT: "Bobby was absolutely flying and got into a previous England squad just prior to breaking his leg. He was a huge loss to us last year and I feel sure that if we'd have had the benefit of Bobby's services for the whole of the season then who knows we might have even been higher than the 8th that we actually ended up.

"I'm delighted for him because he worked exceptionally hard to get back to the level of fitness that you need to have to perform consistently well at Premier League level.

"Now he's back there's no denying everyone appreciates what a good football player Bobby is when he has got real belief in the way he is playing, and in his current form he is very difficult to cope with."
