Fulham are a team rarely mentioned and easily forgotten, but with Roy Hodgson as manager they should never be underestimated. The signing of Damien Duff - in my view the signing of the season - has given Fulham that little bit of extra quality that they needed. Duff has rediscovered his Blackburn and Chelsea form after struggling at Newcastle. His pace and skill are the biggest contributing factors to any goal that Bobby Zamora has scored this season and he even chips in with a few goals himself. With Andy Johnson injured earlier in the season, Duff stepped up his game and expect nothing less from him with Zamora now out for while.
After proving that they can beat anyone with their 3-0 demolition of Manchester United (granted they had a makeshift defence but it was still impressive) a bet on them to win the FA Cup at 20-1 could be a great shout. With their main competitors fighting for Top 4 positions they might even get an easy ride to the final and it won't be long till they are out of the Europa League (sorry Fulham fans but its true) allowing complete focus on the FA Cup
