Fulham manager Marco Silva was full of praise as his side put in a complete performance to dismantle Brentford on derby day.
Even though we went behind to an early Mikkel Damsgaard goal, that was the only blip in an otherwise faultless performance.
Alex Iwobi, Harry Wilson and an Ethan Pinnock own goal completed the turnaround in a relentless and dominant display at the Cottage.
“We were the best team on the pitch,” said Silva. “Our first-half was top level from the first minute. Front foot, very aggressive on and off the ball, building up our moments in the right way, causing them many problems with the positions of Alex Iwobi, Josh King and Saša Lukic.
“A good first 20 minutes but we conceded a goal that we didn’t deserve – a mistake from ourselves in that moment. I loved the way the players reacted straight away and the support for Josh in that moment was lovely to see.
“What a reaction from us. We kept ourselves cool, but we showed character, we showed resilience and kept doing the good things we were doing before. We controlled all of the first-half from the first whistle to the last, with some great moments of football too.
“Second-half, we scored early and after that moment we didn’t give much to them. We were brave, organised and kept ourselves cool, controlling the second-half. The only moments in our box came from long throws or corners.
“I’m proud of our players and the way they did it. A great night for our fans, they deserve it. Back-to-back wins in the Premier League is very important to achieve. Tonight, we won the game, we were the better team and we won the game in our way.”
