Fulham boss Silva happy Raul off the mark

Fulham boss Marco Silva was happy seeing Raul Jimenez off the mark last week.

Raul scored his first goal for Fulham against Aston Villa.

“It was really important for him first of all," said Silva. “We lost the game so it's not the same feeling when a player has scored a goal and you lost the game.

“He is always trying to help the team. Definitely, we are going to see more confidence for sure.

“But now it's up to him to keep working hard and to be more confident in certain moments around the box because he has the capacity to do it. He has the quality to do it as well."
