Sure, shouldn't Silva have done this from the beginning.
He's had the players to get better results.
Rather than build foundations and improve from there, its been all over the place, schoolboy tactics and little improvement in players (reverse in the case of Gomes, Pickford etc)
In the two derbies and against chelsea he proved how difficult it can be to beat us.
In many of the other matches he pissed it away.
If he had got it right we would have surely nicked a win against one of the top sides by now.
Yesterday was about the players responding to the supporters and the occasion.
How much of it was down to Silva is hard to tell.
He's a very lucky manager - what manger gets a free 17 days to work out the problems
If he didn't get a bump in performance out of the players after that then he really did deserved to be sacked.
