Fulham boss Felix Magath has explained clearing out the club's coaching staff.
Rene Meulensteen, Alan Curbishley and Ray Wilkins have all been axed.
"I had to talk with him (Curbishley) about football and he gave me information about West Brom (away on Saturday), was very good, very nice, but I decided to make a real cut," Magath said.
"If you make one here, one there, it is not the same.
"We have good relations and I know he is a very good manager who knows the English league well.
"So I am sorry for that, but I think it is the best for Fulham."
