Fulham boss Jol convinced getting something from Man Utd

Fulham boss Martin Jol feels they can get something against Manchester United.

The Cottagers go into the game on the back of victory over Bolton Wanderers.

"We have always had that belief," Jol said of the Bolton victory. "The only difference is we got the points and played well, scored a couple of goals and didn't concede.

"Obviously United can punish you and sometimes they will.

"Man United and Chelsea, for example, they have got the extra quality if you give them space. We allowed Bolton to have six or seven shots but you cannot allow the likes of Man United to do that.

"I think every game stands on itself. Liverpool was good, Man City was nice but Man United is probably different. You have to play to your strengths and that is what we will try to do and try to avoid them exploiting us with their quality.

"We had a 3-0 win and a 2-2 draw recently so we seem to do well against them.

"I think it could be coincidence but it could be our style as well."
