Slavisa Jokanovic insists Cardiff City are still promotion favourites after Fulham jump into second place

Wednesday 11th April 2018


"I don't know how they feel, we catch our first target and we must be quiet and try be ready for next step," said Jokanovic when asked about the race for second place.

"You must ask them, because I don't know how they are in good momentum or not, I didn't watch the game (against Aston Villa)."

The former Watford boss, who has masterminded Fulham's astonishing 20-game unbeaten streak, cited Cardiff's game in hand — which comes against Derby County on April 24 — as the biggest factor in determining who finishes behind Wolves.

“Everything is in their hands and we will try make it our job, it's natural that we try and put them under pressure and we will try for our side to win the next game," he added.

"End of the season, they will play five games and we will have four, it's possible many things will happen and we will need to be ready for next step and try.

"If we do it or not, I cannot answer you."

Nonsense.

Mind games.

The pressure now is on his Fulham side and he knows it, hence why he is trying to play down their chances. As has been said, it's sometimes easier to chase down second place than hold on to it as the pressure increases the longer you stay there.

He's trying to make sure that they feel no pressure by claiming to be underdogs still.

Let's hope they begin to crack from hereon in.

Would love him to be our next manager.

The pressure is on Cardiff, but, that might suit us, we like to not be talked about and the talk will now be Fulham and their run! Still think 92 will do it, still think we got 4 wins in us.

He must sort the midfield out, even if it is to bring back Bamba in midfield, put manga centre back. Whatever it is Gunnarsson must drop to the bench.

Would love him to be our next manager.

Yeah and bring the bulk of the Fulham team with him. But I'd still want Warnock as DoF and Hoilett and Bamba to stay.

Mind games just making himself feel good the prick.

Would love him to be our next manager.

And what could he do with our pedestrian midfield and toothless forwards?
