QPR, Villa, Sunderland target Zamora has no problems at Fulham - Jol

Fulham manager Martin Jol insists there is no problem between he and striker Bobby Zamora.

The centre-forward was left out of the weekend's loss to Swansea City but should return to the line-up for tomorrow night's Europa League clash with Danish club Odense and Jol has insisted that there is no rift between he and the England international.

"I said to him a few weeks ago 'do you love this club?' and he said 'Yeah, I love this club, I love this team'," Jol said of Zamora who is being targeted by QPR, Aston Villa and Sunderland for a potential winter transfer.

"I don't think there is any problem. I think the grass is always greener [on the other side] but it is not only for him.

"I feel if you look at the media, they started this Bobby thing in August.

"There are a few youngsters that tell me they should be playing and are not playing all the time, but Bobby is totally different.

"I wanted a good atmosphere and a good team that pushes each other so I though last weekend it was time for Andy Johnson to play because he has scored goals.

"He had good games and worked hard in training so that was the motivation."
