Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp was grateful to goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes after their 0-0 draw at Fulham yesterday.

"He's done well recently and for £10million he should be half decent," Redknapp said. "When he was as bad as he looked you were thinking 'this can't be right'.

"He's now showing what we thought he could be - a top goalkeeper - and a lot of credit goes to Tony Parks who has been working hard with.

"He's instilled confidence and we are starting to see the benefits."

There was a hint of a penalty when Andy Johnson's shot was saved as Ledley King appeared to clip him - but Fulham boss Hodgson had no complaints.

"From my position on the bench, my first thought was that he was tripped or pushed but Andy said it was an unfortunate stumble," he said. "The referee made a good decision and perhaps we should congratulate him and his linesman because it's very easy to give it."

It was Roy Hodgson's fourth successive 0-0 away from home in the league.

"The players are working very hard in their defensive duties," he added. "In the second half we had an opportunity on the counter attack but were profligate with our passing."

Jimmy Bullard picked up a dead leg and is a doubt for the clash against Chelsea.
