Fulham boss Mark Hughes says Bobby Zamora knows he faces a battle to break back into the first team.
Zamora is on the brink of making his comeback after almost five months on the sidelines following surgery in September. "He understands that the squad is evolving now and the squad is getting bigger and stronger," said Hughes, who this week added Stoke's ex-Chelsea and Bolton forward Eidur Gudjohnsen to his strikeforce.
"Bobby knows that he needs to work hard to get back in the side but, given his desire to get back in, that shouldn't faze him at all."
