Hodgson Hoping Stars Don't Leave

Both Jimmy Bullard and Brede Hangeland are reported targets of Premier League rivals and Hodgson has admitted that should sizeable offers come in for any of his squad then the club woud find it hard to hold on to their prize players.

"We can't say if Bullard or Hangeland are not going anywhere," said Hodgson in the Daily Star Sunday.

"If you say are we trying to sell them the answer is 'no' - we're not.

"But at the same time we are Fulham Football Club. There are bigger clubs who unfortunately have a lot more money and pay enormous wages which we do not have.

"So I can't say that anyone is not going anywhere.

"I just hope we will keep all our players and the big clubs will look elsewhere and leave Fulham alone."
