Fulham boss Parker admits 'blip' ahead of Arsenal clash

Fulham boss Scott Parker has urged self-belief from his players facing Arsenal today.

Parker admits they're now experiencing a "blip" as their Premier League survival hopes diminish.

“It's been a normal week," he said. “This squad and this group of players have got a resilience about them, and we bounce back and we're now looking forward to a London derby against a very good side in Arsenal, and hopefully we can get a result.

“Results-wise, we've hit a bit of a blip, but I've got to believe that we can win football matches in this division, against any team I believe we can get a result.

“We now need to get a run, we now need to win some games, starting at the weekend. That belief comes from what I see during the week, it comes from results we've managed to gain.

“While it's been a difficult season, we've had some real good performances where we've looked solid and a very good side, and we need that to click in the next six."
