So we judge silva on one game at selhurst, when in theory Swansea winning on that Saturday. Near enough put the nail in the coffin. He took over a hull side that was the worse on paper and gave it a fighting chance in the league. Had an impressive home record at hull. Had similar success abroad with olymkiakos. In not saying sack de Boer but surely parish knew we didn't have players for a possession game or was he asleep when pardew was in charge. Given the lack of funds at Palace. Surely would of made more sense, he knew when appointing big Sam successor the budget roughly. De Boer a good manager record at Ajax but you use the conveyor belt of youth that makes up 75% of Ajax side every season. Premier league is unforgiving league, I'm not for one minute think de Boer is bad appointment and saw a massive improvement today. Just wondering if others thought we missed a trick, not going for Marco silva. You clearly don't . No, I don't. Those Hull fans I mentioned said he'd been the same for most of his time there & that, if he'd been given the same support on transfers, Phelan would have stood as good a chance of keeping them up. Based on their observations, I reckon we dodged a bullet rather than missed an opportunity.

Silva was just as much a risk as De Boer. I don't know if he was ever a main target but I much prefer who we got. Strange him going to Watford. He could finish in the top ten a still get sacked. There is no chance that Silva is as much a risk as Frank. Silva took over hopeless squad in the prem halfway and almost saved them. Frank is a virgin here. Your palace specs are riveted to your forehead.

Fifield is, ultimately, a journalist looking to earn a few quid yet you'd take his hearsay over a categoric statement from the man involved? I also don't get why Silva would have made perfect sense for us. The day we beat Hull 4-0 he showed absolutely no desire or ability to change anything. There was no sign of him trying to spur his team on or offer any real encouragement - the Hull fans we chatted with after felt the same way. Not sure I'd want such a lack of leadership anywhere near my team.
They had 3-4 players out and gave a penalty away in the 1st minute. It was a miracle he got them in that position and more, when before January you all wrote hull off. Edited by Rudi Hedman (20 Aug 2017 12.12am)

It could be said that Parish was more pleased with Frank over Silva with regards to things like: the long term; youth; hiring of younger player players and assets; long term strategy across age groups etc. All that means nothing if relegated of course but there's always a point of out. I think some of that's evident with Cheek and Mensah. Managers trusting Frank. Dutch hopefuls aren't as guaranteed as aren't other foreign players.

Silva and Hull were relegated. We missed no trick whatsoever so stop panicking and give deBoer a chance.

Ask this one question has anyone tried to buy benteke, no, that is the reason we will struggle this year, he is the only striker we have, and he is lazy, plus the so called system does not suit him, we now have just two fighters luka and RLC, I really think we are heading for trouble

Also not saying isn't allowed a holiday. Not in anyway am I calling for frank de Boer to be sacked but do you think we missed a trick not getting Marco Silva. Done reasonably well on a small budget at hull, although got hull relegated he remained his reputation. Especially given our lack of budget. He bought in young and hungry players in Hughes and chalobah. Also had a release clause, where he called walk away for nothing. I guess this hypothetical question, but would like to know your feelings on this .

FDB will prove to be a much better acquisition than Silva would have ever been.
