Cocktail-themed football XI

CARDIFF, WALES - JANUARY 08:  Dennis Odoi of Fulham closes down Kadeem Harris of Cardiff City during The Emirates FA Cup Third Round match between Cardiff

It's not just on the field where promotion-chasing Fulham are hoping to strike the right mix!

Off the field, Fulham are shaking and stirring with Craven Cottage housing The Clubhouse, the first dedicated gin bar in a football stadium.

To mark Cocktails at the Cottage, Fulham defender Denis Odoi and new signing Athanasios Petsos had a lesson in cocktail making, and while they were getting the right consistency at the bar, Odoi is keen for a better consistency on the pitch.

"We need a consistency on the pitch," Odoi told Sky Sports News HQ. "We need a streak of winning games and if we can do that we'll be in there."

Slavisa Jokanovic's are 10th in the Championship, six points off the play-off places and they will need to put everything in for a successful promotion push.

To acknowledge Fulham's cocktail bar, we have picked out a Cocktail XI, who will play in a trendy 3-4-3 formation, and under the guidance of Roberto Espresso Mancini, we think they'll be in the mix...
