Marco Silva praised Fulham’s players for their largely dominant performance in the 5-3 win at home to Leicester. The triumph was dulled by two late goals from the Foxes, but Fulham, who led 3-0 at the break, was still the superior team and had several high-caliber moments. Willian and Tom Cairney each scored twice, while Carlos Vinicius also scored. Silva, the Whites' manager, proclaimed, "Clearly, we were the best team on the pitch. I don't believe there is any question. We ought to have won this game far more easily, in my opinion.

Vinicius, who took Aleksandar Mitrovic's position up front while he was on suspension, received accolades as well.  "He is in a better place right now. Everyone, in my opinion, can see it, Silva stated. He has a lot more self-assurance. The reason I'm happy for him is that he deserves it.
