Hull Need To Improve Squad To Survive- Marco Silva

Marco Silva insists Hull need players to improve their squad in this January transfer window if they are to survive in the Premier League. Hull are currently bottom of the Premier League with over half of the season gone, and sources indicated on Tuesday night that West Ham had come in with an improved £5m offer for their star player Robert Snodgrass.

Speaking after the 2-0 EFL Cup semi-final first leg defeat by Manchester United at Old Trafford, Silva said “I don't know. I am in the game, I don't know about this Snodgrass offer. Of course, without doubt we need Snodgrass to help us survive. We'll see, at the moment they are important players, we need to improve our roster with quality players, not only one, not only two, we need some players to improve our roster.”

Silva, who replaced the sacked Mike Phelan at the KCOM Stadium, was pleased with his side's work-rate despite the defeat. He said “First of all it was a hard, hard game for us. Man Utd deserve the victory, deserve the result. It's a pity we concede the goal in the last minutes, we tried to keep the result open for the second game. But I'm happy with the work, of course I'm not happy with the result, but with all the problems we had to prepare for this game, all the problems we have at the moment, I think we worked well, my boys worked well, and we continue our work. It's not easy, when our team came here with Man Utd in a very good moment, with only three or four sessions playing with me, I'm happy with the work my players did in the game. The score and result is not good for sure, but I'm happy with the work. It's our obligation to try to do better, and to try to continue dreaming, our dream is to play this final, we'll see, it's very difficult, but when it is our time to play we will compete.”
