Fulham boss Parker: We need to keep pressure on those above us

Fulham boss Scott Parker says staying up is within their grasp after victory over Sheffield United.

The Cottagers remain 18th but have cut a 10-point gap to Newcastle in 17th to just three points inside a week.

Parker said, "It's a tough league. We understand that. All we need to do is focus on us. That's all we've done this season. When we've had our little dip we've focused on us. We're a young team who are growing fast. I have big belief in this team.

"That's the aim (staying up). We've been in this position for a while now. We're comfortable with where we are, we know the projections we're on. Let's try and rack up some wins and put pressure on the other teams. That's the main focus."
