Former Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur striker Garth Crooks says Ademola Lookman has what it takes to save Fulham from relegation this season.
Lookman was the hero for Fulham who pipped Sheffield United at the weekend.
Despite the win against Sheffield, Fulham are still in the relegation zone on 18 points.

And Crooks, named Lookman in his BBC Sport Team of the Week, is confident Lookman’s goals can help Scott Parker’s team beat the drop.
“Fulham on the other hand have started to find the net. Two against Everton recently and another one against Sheffield United, this time by a player who will be crucial to Fulham’s fortunes if they are going to survive in the Premier League.
“Ademola Lookman can score goals and has Fulham’s sights firmly locked on Newcastle with only three points now separating the teams.
“Lookman has the ability to save Scott Parker’s Fulham side.”
Fulham’s next Premier League fixture is a London derby against Crystal Palace.

All those clamouring for the inclusion of lookman (including myself) into the Super Eagles may have to wait a little longer to see it materialise. I just realised that his club is fighting relegation and he is one of the players looked at to pull them out of relegation. So I don’t think his club coach will want to risk him getting injured on international duty even he has switched to Nigeria (which no one knows he has). So lets keep hoping on the future and believing on the players readily available to us now.
Lookman has written to FIFA for a change of nationality along with seyi Ojo, Ike ugbo, Oviemuno Ejaria and Jordan Torunarigha of hertha Berlin these guys I am very sure they have but what I cannot confirm yet is if they had received the green light from world football governing body..
And I if they hadn’t, they will in couple of days ahead as it has been long they signal FIFA for a switch…
