Slavisa Jokanovic was pleased his Fulham side were able to secure back-to-back wins with a 1-0 victory over London rivals Millwall at the Cottage.
Oliver Norwood's first half penalty gave the Whites all three points as the side managed to keep their first home clean sheet of the season, and first blank state since the 2-0 victory over Ipswich in August.
Despite riding their luck for parts of the game, the boss was pleased with the performance and is now looking ahead to the Brentford game next Saturday.
He said: “We saved some important players for this game.
“It’s positive news because we won the game at home and made our supporters happy. This victory means back-to-back wins in the Championship.
“We are fighting. They sent many long balls into our box and are solid. They’re bigger and stronger than us in these situations. We don’t have enough tools to find a solution for certain problems.
“In the end, the team suffered together and got a clean sheet, which is fantastic. It’s the third game this week without a few players so we must be satisfied – we won seven points."
Kevin McDonald, Tim Ream and Floyd Ayite were all missing from the squad, and Jokanovic gave an update on their situation.
He added: “We expect we’ll recover some players and be ready for another London derby.
“Tim Ream and Kevin McDonald are injured, but we expect them to be ready for the next game. Floyd Ayite is a few weeks away from being available to help us.”
