Fulham manager Scott Parker hopes his team will be brave against West Bromwich Albion at the weekend.
The two newly promoted sides go head to head in what is a certain relegation six pointer.
Parker hopes his team can improve their form, having only managed one point from six Premier League games.
"It's just more an understanding of where we are really," Parker told reporters.
"At this present moment in time you see the errors at times and you see the mistakes, how ruthless this league is and that's obviously ongoing from my behalf and the team that you need to be brave in these situations.
"What I mean by brave is you need to see certain negatives and certain deficiencies in the game where you need to improve and you need to stand up and realise that and put your hand up on the Monday and come in and work it and keep trying to improve that."
