Jonathan Greening was in positive mood on Friday morning following Thursday night's pre-season draw against Halmstad.
The midfielder reported that Fulham's training camp in Sweden is proving a success as the Team prepare themselves for the 2010/11 Barclays Premier League season.
"It's good to be back and involved with the team again, and the pre-season programme is going very well. We've had some very positive sessions and a very good game of football on Thursday night. It's all money in the bank as they say.
"The new season is fast approaching and I have to say the players are feeling confident about what lies ahead. Obviously there will be a new manager at some point, and of course it would be nice to know who exactly that will be, I wouldn't say it has been a problem. This is an experienced group of players and at some point or other we've all gone through this before. It's part of football.
"Everyone starts off afresh and that's quite exciting. You never know exactly what will happen, and you have to try and impress again and make sure you're part of the new manager's plans. But Ray Lewington has been first class, as has the rest of the staff - the team is certainly in good hands.
"This is a crucial part of the season, and it's what we do now that really stands us in good stead for the rest of the campaign. Last season was a fantastic year for us, and we have every intention of making the forthcoming season another to be proud of. To reach the final of the UEFA Europa League in my first season at the Club was incredible and just being part of that magnificent run is something I will remember for the rest of my life."
Greening has now joined the Club on a permanent basis and following last year's European adventure the midfielder is hoping for success on the domestic front this coming season.
"Obviously I have come in on a permanent deal now, and of course, I'm very happy about that. This is a great Club and I'm enjoying my football at Fulham - and long may that continue.
"We played a lot of games last year, and of course, that took its toll. Without Europe this season, there is more emphasis on the league, that's not saying there wasn't last year, but this is a season of domestic football now. The aim is to consolidate our position in the Barclays Premier League and once that is achieved we can then start thinking about finishing as high as possible.
"We want to keep progressing as a team and as a club, and that is important. We have an incredible amount of team spirit and that is vital - when you have that you can go far."
