Gera: Fulham pleased with Wolves point

Zoltan Gera says Fulham can be happy with their 0-0 draw against Wolves.

The Hungarian attacker was a lively presence at the front of the Whites' brightest moves. Bobby Zamora hit the post with a 25-yard strike, while Gera himself, went close with header late on.

Gera told fulhamfc.com: "Okay it was a frustrating afternoon for us, but there are certainly positives that we can take. There were times during the 90 minutes where we could have taken something because there were periods where we played some good football – unfortunately the clear cut chances eluded us. For me this was a game that we should have won.

"But we can take a lot from the match. Firstly, the defence played very well and helped keep another clean sheet, which is always important."

COTTAGERS CLOSE IN ON CAREW
Fulham fancy Villa forward

ASTON VILLA striker John Carew looks set to join Fulham this summer.

The Norwegian has spent £2.6million on a three-bedroom flat in the luxury Battersea Reach apartment block in south-west London, within two miles of Craven Cottage.

Fulham boss Roy Hodgson has worked closely with Scandinavian players during his career and recently managed Norwegian club Viking Stavanger.


Carew, 30, has a year left on his contract but looks certain to replace compatriot Erik Nevland, who has been told he can leave the Europa League semi-finalists in the close season.


The former Valencia striker, who has scored 35 goals in nearly 100 appearances for Villa, would attract a bid of around £3.5m, and make an ideal partner for Bobby Zamora.

Fulham - Zamora Edging Closer to Call-Up!
It`s something we`ve covered many times this season but something that refuses to go away.

With the Wold Cup getting closer by the day, many of us have given up hope that our 19 goal scoring sensation, Bobby Zamora, can make a late impact on the international scene and therefore grace the World Cup stage.

But in the News of the World today, Bobby gets a big boost from one of their journalists, Neil Ashton who is of the opinion that a dip in form for Emile Heskey and Carlton Cole, could finally see Bobby give a chance.

With Fabio Capello set to name his provisional squad in May, keep your fingers crossed that the name of Bobby Zamora makes it onto the list.
