Cottagers defensive rock Martin Djetou has played down his importance to the Fulham backline.
The win over Middlesbrough saw the fourth appearance of the Djetou-Alain Goma central pairing — a sequence which has earned three wins and a draw.

But Djetou said: "I don't think I played that well. I thought we were a bit up and down in the game at times, sometimes good, sometimes not so good, and we did let them have a couple of chances to score and Maik (Taylor) had to make some good saves.
"Overall I'm very happy with the way things are going for me though. I don't mind which position I play.
"What has been good for me has been to play some games in midfield and now some games in defence.
"I think that it gives me a better understanding of the way the team works and makes me a better player," he reasoned.
Djetou has been focussing on the F.A. Cup game with Charlton on the weekend and is hoping for a win.
I hope to win something this season, because with every other club I have joined I have won something in my first year. I think that Arsenal are too far in front for us to win the League, so it will have to be the Cup!
"With Strasbourg we won our League, at Monaco it was the Championship, and then with Parma we won the Coppa Italia. I hope that my run of good fortune continues here with Fulham."
