Marco Silva leaves Fulham

[Colinwhite]

Thankyou Marco for doing a fantastic job for us .You will never be forgotten as one of our best ever managers.

[SimonDaviesEnjoyer]

Best of luck Marco.

Club legend for me.

Be careful what you wish for. He may have lost a few fans recently but did we ever really fear relegation these past few years? Maybe for a very brief moment. I wish him well but feel this didn't need to be the end.

Word has it Derek McInnes is in the frame for the job

To be fair, in the two seasons before 25/26 it was nigh on impossible to get relegated considering 18th place only managed 25 and 26 points in those two seasons. If we somehow got relegated with those points, then it would've been an achievement.

Derek Mcinnes?

Khan saying they prepared for this moment,and won't be long till a new leader is installed.

But after the WC there may be some worthy managers who would be suitable like Vincenzo Montella.

[Rambler]

Thanks for everything Marco. Some great memories.
Hopefully the club has prepared well. All on the Khans now to find the right appointment.

Onwards and upwards

[LittleErn]

I have enjoyed Marco's positive approach which has given us some fantastic moments. However, form has stuttered recently for whatever reasons, and without expensive reinforcements, which I'm not sure we could afford or attract, I could see the team's form going backwards. We are at a crossroads and if he is to lead us upwards then the new manager will need to be experienced, ambitious, and proactive in the transfer market. Most of all he will need the charisma to attract players of the necessary class. A tall order. 🤞

Sad news, but some here and on various social media will be happy. I hope we get the right appointment in. I've not been excited by the names linked so far in the slightest.

Personally im sad to see him go, but I do think all things comes to an end, even the good ones. So in excited for our next chapter.

Change is usually a good and necessary thing, even if its changing from something good. The market is packed with talented managers and I dont see why we couldnt get a good name in when teams like Bournemouth got Rose, CP got Glasner, Brighton got Hurzeler and so on.
If we play out cards right, know what we want in a manager and show the will and desire to get it, in sure we can land a really good manager and that cpild really elevated us to the next level.

Im positively sure that if Silva would have signed a new contract with us, somewhere down the line it would end up in us sacking him or some bigger clubs comes and get him mid season. Him leaving us this early in June is the best time for him to leave

Sad to see him go 😢

Thanks for all the memories - a terrific promotion season where we scored 19 goals in 3 consecutive games (remember that !?) and he stabilised Fulham as an entertaining midtable team in the PL.

Don't forget along the way we've won a lot of West London derbies (v Chelsea for first time since Cookie Coleman) and our usual bugbears Brentford.

It's been a fun ride while it lasted 

[Ludlow Richard]

Sad to see him go. The best clubs seem to have managers who stay around for a long time but in Silva's case it had gone rather stale and it felt like he wanted out. His demeanour at press conferences seemed downbeat so I just wonder what he was like in the dressing room.

A question for those in the know. Is he staying on our books until the end of his contract at the end of June? Leaving "in the summer" suggests that he is...... 

[sunburywhite]

Thank you Marco for the ride
Best wishes for your future and all you have done for Fulham

[Sgt Fulham]

Absolutely gutted to be honest. It is critical that we get the appointment of his successor right, otherwise we could be in trouble. Hopefully someone with a strong personality who will re-establish our identity.

Best of luck, Marco, and thanks for the memories.

[Andy S]

Thanks Marco and good luck for the future

Yes, I agree. Five years is a long time looking at his track record. Time for a new challenge, and one for the Khans - I have more faith in Marco, sadly...
