Arbeloa says focus shouldn't be on him as Fulham chase first Premier League win

Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa has made it clear that the spotlight should stay on the team rather than himself as the club looks to secure its first Premier League victory of the season against Hull City this weekend. The Spanish former defender, who took charge after a rough start, is focused on building confidence and cohesion among his players.

Alvaro Arbeloa, the Spanish former defender who took charge of Fulham last season, has made it clear that the spotlight should remain on the squad rather than himself.

Fulham have yet to win a Premier League match this campaign, and the new manager is keen to build confidence and cohesion among his players after a difficult start to the season.

By insisting that the focus stays on the team, Arbeloa hopes to shift the narrative away from individual performance and onto collective effort, a move he believes will help his side perform better on the pitch.

The club’s next test comes this weekend against Hull City, a fixture that could provide the first top‑flight victory for the London side.

Arbeloa’s emphasis on teamwork comes ahead of the match, and the result will set the tone for the remainder of the season as Fulham look to secure their place in the Premier League.
