Fulham boss Roy Hodgson is delighted with the form of goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer this season.

Schwarzer has had a big say on Fulham's success this term.

Hodgson said: "With goalkeepers you can get away with it a little bit more. If you look at the records of the players who have played the longest number of consecutive games, quite often goalkeepers are right up there.

"Mark has been fantastically consistent, he's been very good for us. He's a calming influence, just the type of goalkeeper that we need."
