Marco Silva was full of praise for his Fulham team after their performance against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Despite a late goal from Joshua Zirkzee securing a win for the home side, Silva believed that Fulham deserved more from the game.
The Fulham boss commended his team’s efforts, stating that they started the game on the front foot and engaged in a good battle with Manchester United.

Silva highlighted the changes made during the break, allowing Fulham to defend higher up the pitch and be more aggressive in their approach. This tactical shift helped them control the game better in the second half, despite the late setback.
Looking ahead, Fulham will be playing their first home game of the season against Leicester next Saturday. The team will be aiming to build on their positive performance against Manchester United and secure a positive result in front of their home fans.
Silva’s optimism and confidence in his team’s ability to compete with top sides like Manchester United bode well for Fulham’s upcoming matches in the season.
