Johnson full of praise for Fulham matchwinner Pogrebnyak

Andy Johnson was delighted for Fulham matchwinner Pavel Pogrebnyak after victory over QPR.

The Russian struck the only goal of the game.

AJ told fulhamfc.com: "He's fitted in well and got two in two now, which is great for him. He's a great lad to have around the place and he's been welcomed with open arms.

"He's very like an English striker. He comes in and works really hard in training, puts himself about and he's up for the fight. He holds people off, he spins people and gets shots off all week in training. He scored a great goal last week and an important one for us today so he's a top, top man and we're all pleased for him."
