Ex-Spurs coach Wells happy to work with Parker at Fulham

Former Tottenham coach Matt Wells is delighted with his move to Fulham.

Wells joined the Cottagers as first team coach after Scott Parker took the caretaker manager's job.

Wells, whose grandfather is Cliff Jones, told fulhamfc.com: "We've got an incredible relationship, we just clicked as soon as Scott came in [at Tottenham]. We both see football in a very similar way. Scott came in with incredible playing experience, and I think we both really helped each other.

"I could help translate some of his ideas into sessions and how we deliver that to the players. We just struck up a really good relationship, probably a friendship first and foremost because as people off the pitch we're very close, and in a footballing sense with the way we view the game tactically."
