Fulham skipper Murphy says they must build on QPR triumph

Fulham skipper Danny Murphy says they must build on their 6-0 thumping of QPR.

He called for the same level of performance at Stoke City after the current international break.

"On Sunday it all clicked, but let's not go overboard," Murphy told fulhamfc.com. "They [QPR] had a bad day at the office and I'm sure they'll admit that but we did play some terrific stuff and it's a good foundation to move forward.

"It's only three points at the end of the day. That's seven games and seven points and really we feel like we should have done better than that. It's pleasing but we've got to be careful because you can get carried away with a 6-0 win.

"We've got Stoke City away next and that's as tough a place to go as anywhere and you can soon come down to earth with a bump if you think you're better than you are. We've got the international break now but we've got to make sure we go there with the same hunger and passion we showed against QPR on Sunday."
