Joe Bryan has called on his Fulham team-mates to find some much needed consistency in the Championship by following a fine victory over Swansea with a win at Coventry City tomorrow.
The Whites ended a frustrating winless run with a 3-1 win over the Swans at Craven Cottage in midweek, inspired by Aleksandar Mitrovic’s first half hat trick. Bryan insists that will count for nothing unless Fulham can back it up with another win in the Midlands – although Coventry have won five out of five on their home patch in a fine start to the season.
Bryan told FFC TV:
“Obviously, they’ve started brilliantly. I think they had a tough result last night. That’s the Championship for you. We know that we can win four games in a row and then get three or four stuck past you. We’ve had a couple of tough results in this little block of games but if we can take the point on Saturday, three points on Wednesday and get a victory on Saturday, I think we’ll look back on it as a good run of games.
“I think when you play for Fulham, you have to understand that we’re a very, very talented and good team in this division. You respect the opposition, of course, because they are where there are for a reason, but we know that we’ve got an abundance of quality. Not just the starting eleven, I think you’ve seen over the last few weeks with injuries, playing coming in and doing well, we’ve got real quality in depth and we’ve got to show it with consistency. You can’t show it with spurts, we make to sure we can nail down that consistency now.”
