Jol admits Fulham didn't turn up against Swansea

Fulham boss Martin Jol admits they were never in the game during defeat to Swansea City.

Fulham came into the match unbeaten in six home games in all competitions, but they looked second best throughout at Craven Cottage.

"I thought in the main you could say, especially at home, we have had a lot of players that put in good performances," he said. "But today we didn't play like a team and all the players that would normally make a difference were not there.

"I feel Swansea will always have a lot of possession, even when they play Manchester United or Chelsea. There is two ways to respond to that, which is either to press them or drop off, let them play and try to break them."
