You make me laugh.*ignore*
Years ago I read a paper on this that showed that replacing the manager mid season usually brings a dramatic change in points per game (and not always a positive one) before regression to the mean. The average length of the disrupted period was 8 games.
I'm not sure, unless there is a stellar long term option immediately willing to step in, that canning Silva is the answer to our problems. Locking him in a room and showing him videos of teams playing a 433... maybe.
He is gone to Orlando to get away from it !!

Could be the same paper quoted in the BBC article I linked to, it's from a few years back.
I want the club off the changing manager mid-season merry go round as it's an expensive and disruptive ride. Obviously if the wheels fall off completely as they did I'd say with Koeman, then yes, press the alarm button, get an Allardyce figure in and preserve top flight status. Just remember how disruptive that can be and how it could make things harder for the next permanent appointment though...
Otherwise, even if Silva isn't the long term solution* I think it's better to get through to the close season. At that point you have a greater choice of managers to speak to, you have time for a new guy to get their way of playing across to players, you probably have to pay less compensation to the previous incumbent and the club that his successor is contracted to etc. etc.
*At this point I don't think he is.
No mate you are correct you don't seek attention, I might put you on egnore for the rest of the day.YAWN

I genuinely fear the consequences for us if the wrong call is made yet again.
I didn't even spot that, drat.*Hawking
According to Moshiri, Silva was the suitable replacement. Brands is the captain now. At least I hope he is
