I’d say decent is stretching it. He’s done nothing in the Premier League to suggest that.It's not good enough. But he is a decent manager. He's not a bad manager. That's all I claim.

But three games against poor opposition which we need to be beating if we are going to move forward into European spots.
Away wins against the likes of Bournemouth and Villa are the bread and butter of the top 6 teams and if we can't win these games it is going to be very hard for Silva to improve our league finish.
Last year was acceptable but people want to see improvement and this early run of fixtures was an opportunity for us to show we've progressed. From what we've seen so far the early signs are not great.
What about last season during the first few months thatBecause we're 5 games into the season?
We are not getting better results after hes been here well over a year and we have spent a fortune.FS football to Silva isn’t even debatable but crying for the manager to be sacked when we lose is pretty low
Because we cant defend. We have been vulnerable at the back, set pieces especially since Martinez imo. Having frigging schneiderlin in midfield, who has literally zero interest in passing forward, doesnt help our transition from back to front either. He has the odd half decent game and folk think hes turned the corner but hes 29(?) now and his career is pretty much that by definition.A poorish set of player that hes spent a fortune on. How can we spend so much on players over the past few years and be so poor?

Not as frustrated as the fanbase I can assure you.
Are you kidding? I've said all over this forum today how baneful that was from Silva.Your blind support goes nowhere. Look at the way we create chances. Push it to the wings and let percentage take care of the rest.
You must be silly not to admit it
Just about the most abysmal post I have ever read on football anywhere.I think a big problem for us away from home is that we are seen as a scalp. They know we have good players and that means they´re absolutely switched on from the word go, the opposition crowd are always up for it too. Silva has to find a way around this but it´s difficult when you´re away from home and teams are defending solidly.
There hasn’t been enough emphasis on this. Our fixtures early on were made for a great start but it’s been squandered. I’d even worry about Sheffield UnitedWe've had a very easy un-Everton sequence of fixtures to start this season - we have well and truly blown them one solitary point away from three very winnable ties.
If we're not on 20pts at least by the beginning of the horror show December is looking like at this moment I fear for this team.
Away from home?That's rubbish.
You've seen how we can beat good teams.
That sort of criticism gets us nowhere.
Agreed. I suggest he acquires one....quickly.Ok fair enough mate. I think he’s a better coach than manager. Managing a team including setting us up against good or bad teams home or away I believe he ain’t good enough. He always says he likes to control games, of the players aren’t good enough, you won’t control games. He has no plan B.
