Fulham boss Martin Jol has said that their season is not a "disaster" and that "life is great" ahead of Sunday's derby against Queens Park Rangers.

The Cottagers' first win in all competitions came against Odense in the Europa League on Thursday, and they currently sit in 17th place in the Premier League.

Despite their poor start to the campaign, Jol is upbeat about their chances.

"Today is great. We have sunny weather, it's a nice atmosphere in Fulham, the people are relaxed and we had a nice win yesterday," said the Dutchman. "Life is great. I'm totally enjoying it.

"I don't think there is a big concern because we have got a lot of draws and we should have won two or three games.

"It's not a disaster. We have had five draws on the trot and we could have won three easily."

Sunday's opponents QPR are currently 10th in the league.
