Scott Parker Says Fulham Must Win Against Wolverhampton
JAKARTA - Fulham manager Scott Parker thinks his team must win against Wolverhampton in the 31st week of the Premier League match at Craven Cottage in London, England, Friday local time (Saturday, western Indonesia time).
According to him, for Fulham who is currently stuck in the relegation zone with a collection of 26 points, all seven games remaining until the end of the season must be won.
"All the remaining games we have to win," Parker said in a pre-match press conference reported Friday.
"We've been in this position for too long, in the awareness of where we are and what we want to do, so of course tomorrow's game we want to win, but that also applies to the next game against Arsenal," he added.
As a promotion team, Fulham this season continues to sit at the bottom of the Premier League table and has only ever finished 17th.
Although Parker refused to call the match against Wolverhampton any decisive match, he insisted that Fulham still had to win it.

"Do I feel that not winning tomorrow will determine our fate? Absolutely not. But if you ask if we want to win, of course, we want to win," he said.
"It's a match we can win, a match we can play in the hope of a positive result," Parker said.
In the first meeting of the season, Fulham surrendered 0–1 at home to Wolverhampton due to Pedro Neto's goal.
Fulham currently sits 18th in the standings and if they win against the Wolves they have a chance to finish out of the relegation zone, with a goal difference advantage over Newcastle United who is just three points above them.
