Slavisa Jokanovic: I can find the solution at Fulham
Saturday 20 October 2018 19:39, UK
Slavisa Jokanovic insists he is the man to turn things around at Fulham after his side dropped into the Premier League relegation zone with a 4-2 defeat at Cardiff.
The Cottagers took an early lead thanks to Andre Schurrle's stunning long-range strike only to then concede four, meaning Jokanovic's defence have now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 23 top-flight games away from home.
This defeat also meant they have gone six league games without a win, but the Serb is adamant he will find an answer to their current struggles.
"I can find the solution," said Jokanovic after the full-time whistle. "My job is to keep working and fighting to find the solution.
"Last year people were against us, but we found a way to improve ourselves and be more competitive. We showed some positive things, but the negative things are killing us. I will keep going and keep working for my best XI."

Jokanovic bemoaned his team's defending, with Fulham having now conceded 12 goals in their last three games, as well as a league-high 25 in just nine matches.
"We are frustrated after this kind of defeat," he added. "We are conceding too many goals even when we defend in numbers.
"We made too many mistakes and we were not confident with the ball after we scored."
