Wolves had taken the lead through Man\u00e9 as they sought a first victory since beating Liverpool on 3 March.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Silva is out of contract at the end of the season and has been linked with a number of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/football\/premierleague\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Premier League<\/a> clubs as well as Benfica. \u201cI will not say something if the decision is not made,\u201d the 48-year-old Portuguese said. \u201cWhat can I communicate to the people if I haven\u2019t decided?<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cI said I\u2019m going to meet with the board, we are going to analyse, we are going to say some important things which will be crucial to the club\u2019s future in the way I want the club to move. And after [that], the decision is going to be made.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cIt is a moment for the club to address many things, it\u2019s one of the most important summers in this football club.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Fulham are three points behind eighth-placed Brentford, with one game to play and with an inferior goal difference, meaning their hopes of securing European football for next season are all but over.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Wolves\u2019 next competitive league game at Molineux will come in the Championship, with pockets of fans showing their discontent by booing the manager, Rob Edwards, on his lap of appreciation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Edwards said the reaction came as no surprise, and pointed to big changes in the summer. \u201cThe response was expected, a few boos at first but then a lot of people showed their understanding the longer I stood there,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThere is a lot of frustration and anger around. It\u2019s down to us to prove to them that we are heading in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThe situation is horrible, the season as a whole. If you look at our results since Christmas at home \u2013 it\u2019s not horrendous, in challenging circumstances, but it\u2019s away that\u2019s been a problem.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cThere are changes needed. I came in and we had a bit of pre-season in the middle of the season, bottom line is we have not been good enough.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Fulham manager, Marco Silva, insisted he had not made a decision on his future after his side\u2019s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":677223,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-677222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=677222"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/677222\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/677223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=677222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=677222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=677222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
