Mark Hughes<\/a> insists he is staying grounded until the club has enough points to be considered safe from the relegation zone.<\/p>\nThe Cottagers\u2019 boss hailed striker Bobby Zamora\u2019s return to form as he found the back of the net twice in the first half in just five minutes.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has been under the weather. He\u2019s had headcolds and hasn\u2019t been sleeping properly and he wasn\u2019t quite as lively during the week as he normally is,\u201d he told reporters<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can normally hear Bobby before you see him. This was the perfect game for him. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt was important he got over the last hurdle that he had after his injury in terms of getting a
few games and I couldn\u2019t have hoped for a better impact from him. <\/p>\n
\u201cStraight from the off he showed quality that we missed and lacked for many games this season. It\u2019s the perfect day for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
Midfielder Dickson Etuhu scored the last goal to claim all three points, the first to his name since August.<\/p>\n
Hughes feels like the pressure from the first few months of the season has dropped and that his side can relax now that they have achieved the goals they had set for this campaign, especially with Zamora back on the team sheet.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve been talking about being a top 10 side all season and we\u2019ve never wavered from that view,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s nice at the moment that we\u2019re in that 10th position and I think we\u2019re just three points from 7th and it\u2019s possible that we can really establish ourselves from now till the end of the season in that top half which is what we anticipated we would do this season. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe lost key personnel, Bobby being the key one in that respect and that hampered our season. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve been really strong and accomplished in the second half of the season and we knew we would be.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe players are really progressing as a group, they\u2019re receptive and really getting the job done and that\u2019s all we can ask from them.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously Bobby coming back is a huge boost to everybody, not least me because he\u2019s a great option and the facts that he\u2019s in a Fulham shirt now, starting games gives the rest of the team great confidence as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
However, the former Manchester City boss still has the battle against relegation at the back of his mind and insists that Fulham could still find themselves back in the drop-zone. \u00a0<\/p>\n
The Cottagers now stand six points above the bottom three, on 38 points with both Stoke City and Sunderland and although the teams above are in reaching distance, Hughes is still remaining cautious.<\/p>\n
Hughes said: \u201cIt\u2019s not done and dusted till you get the points that you know mathematically that you can\u2019t go down, there\u2019s always a little bit of a worry. <\/p>\n
\u201cIn terms of what we\u2019re producing and how we played in the last two three months, I don\u2019t have any concerns. <\/p>\n
\u201cQuality of our performances will allow us to pick up more points between now and the end of the season and that should certainly allow us to be safe. <\/p>\n
\u201cBut until we actually get them on the board you can never say never.”<\/p>\n
