Fulham chairman Al Fayed expects Hughes to settle quickly

Fulham chairman Mohamed Al Fayed is confident Mark Hughes' arrival will be smooth.

Al Fayed has moved to replace new Liverpool manager Roy Hodgson with Hughes.

He said: "He is a nice guy. He is much better looking and I am sure that he will do a great job.

"I am sure that there will be no complications. We have a great managing director and chief executive and we're happy to have someone like Mark in place.

And in what Hughes will hope was tongue in cheek, Al Fayed said: "I'm sure this guy can get us to the championship."
