Fulham boss Jol sends Ruiz SOS

Fulham boss Martin Jol admits he's rushing back Bryan Ruiz from injury.

Ruiz, who has been badly missed, is rated 50-50 to be in the squad for the visit of Southampton on Wednesday.

"Of course it's not 100 per cent that you would win your games with him, but before his injury, we had better results," said boss Martin Jol.

"After, we struggled a little bit in the midfield and the link up play, and we tried to fill that role with Dimitar Berbatov. But he's a different player, not a midfield player."
