Leno Targeting Three Wins

Bernd Leno joins Marco Silva in his motivation to see Fulham surpass 53 points this season.

With the Whites currently sat on 45 there is little margin for error, but Leno and his teammates are keen to end an already excellent campaign on a high.

“[Silva] said after the Liverpool game that we’ve got four finals to go,” he stated. “You could see against City, against Liverpool, we are not preparing for holidays or whatever, we want to give something back to the fans because their support was amazing.

“Also, there’s still the Club record to beat. We need three wins, which is ambitious but not impossible. We have two home games, we play at Old Trafford and we know what happened at Old Trafford a couple of months ago.

“Good challenges and we are looking forward to it, and let’s see what will happen at the end of the season.

“I think it’s been a great season, from all of us. For me personally as well, I’m very happy with my performances.

“We can be happy, we can be proud with what we’ve achieved this season. We were not even close to the relegation battle, that was the main target.

“And also the way we played was very impressive, but we still have four games to go. We’ll try to win all of them to give the fans something back, because they’ve been amazing.”

Monday’s opponents Leicester City need every point they can get in their fight for survival, and Leno wants Fulham to take inspiration from our performance against another side down the bottom recently.

“It's completely two situations [for Fulham and Leicester], but we had that the other week against Leeds,” he explained. “They are fighting for their lives, but we still beat them 2-1, we dominated them, so we will prepare the same as we did against Leeds.

“It will probably be a similar game, and we’re playing for the three points because we want to win.

“We’re playing at home, where we deserved more in the last game. We have to get the win, nothing else.”
