Fulham boss Martin Jol is delighted seeing Bobby Zamora appear for England this week.

Zamora will be back in action when Fulham head to Sunderland in the Barclays Premier League on Saturday.

And Jol is hoping to reap the benefits of having a player desperate to prove himself over the rest of the season.

"Even if you are not involved in the national team you should be motivated and I think he is," said the Dutchman.

"It certainly gives you an extra dimension playing for the national team and hopefully he'll be involved. I think it can certainly help."
