Fulham boss Mark Hughes was delighted with two-goal Clint Dempsey in victory over Stoke City.
The USA international struck both goals in the 2-0 triumph.
Hughes hailed the contribution of Dempsey, saying: "Sometimes you think Clint's not having an impact on the game, but he's had a positive influence in virtually every game he's played, with goals created or scored.
"It was a great finish for the first, and a great touch to create the penalty by himself. He always has a positive impact."
