Hughes predicts successful season

Aaron Hughes predicts Fulham will enjoy a successful season after making an encouraging start to the campaign.

The Cottagers routed Norwich 5-0 on the opening day of the Barclays Premier League and pushed Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday before succumbing 3-2. They face Sheffield Wednesday in Tuesday's Capital One Cup second round clash at Hillsborough with Hughes delighted by the balance of the team.

"We did really well against Norwich and there's a lot we can take from the Man Utd game too," Hughes told the club's official website, www.fulhamfc.com.
