Johnson scored his third goal in two games in Fulham's 2-1 home win against Newcastle on Sunday with the England coach watching on from the stands.

"Andy's a wonderful finisher. That first goal started fortuitously but he dispatched it so quickly with his left foot, which isn't his favourite," Hodgson has said.
"It was a sharp piece of moving for the penalty, provoking the defender to try and win the ball.
"That penalty won us the game and we have to be delighted with him. That's his second man-of-the-match performance.
"If Andy wants to force his way into Fabio's thinking, he will have to do what he's done in the last two games over the next few matches.
"If I was the national team manager, I'd be making a little note saying 'this looks interesting, let's keep an eye on the situation'."
