Can’t see how this is going to end in anything other than an early exit. By early I'm talking Santini/de Boer early. We have an ‘easy’ first 5 games and if we are in or around the relegation zone after those first 5 then the polls will be up here and he’ll be a dead man walking. At this point I’d say the odds of us being in deep trouble after 5 games are very high indeed.
In terms of Silva himself I don’t think he’s a good manager, he’s probably a poor one but the reality 90% of managers would struggle with the rubbish at their disposal. The other 10% who could get us top half would be percentage merchants who wouldn’t endear themselves to the fan base. So something of a catch 22, although I’m certain a firefighter will have to be called in at some point this season.
he couldn't stop hull's slump and Watford were abysmal too.
he doesn't know how to organise a defence, that's for sure
