Fulham boss Martin Jol says he is feeling positive ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash at Manchester City, despite having won just one league game since Christmas.

Jol also risked upsetting City supporters ahead of Saturday's meeting by claiming they were "a bit lucky" to win the title last term. "I feel that they are in a similar position to what they were before - all of the top three clubs," the Dutchman said. "They have to fight for everything and last year, of course, they were a bit lucky - (to win it) on the last day, in the final seconds. "And maybe it could be the same (this season) because it was quite exciting. There is not a lot between teams like City and Manchester United. "They are out of Europe but they can live with it and focus on the league now so that is one advantage they have got over United."
