Silva knows relegation fight is not over for Hull City
Marco Silva insists Hull City have a long way to go in their fight for Premier League survival despite moving outside the relegation zone.
Silva’s men travel to Manchester City at the weekend in 17th-place in the league, two points above third-bottom Swansea, after their 4-2 victory over Middlesbrough.
Goals from Lazar Markovic, Oumar Niasse and Abel Hernandez saw Hull recover from a goal down to lead 3-1 with Harry Maguire adding a fourth after Marten de Roon had pulled one back.
It moved Silva and his side out of the relegation zone for the first time since October but the manager insists the season is far from over.
He said: “There are still many things that we have to work on as a team but I am happy with our progress.

“We now need to do more because nothing finishes because of this win. It was a very important three points, but we have to continue to fight until the end of the season.
“It was a very good performance and my feeling is that it was our best since I arrived here.
“We worked together and played as a team – this is the only way we can change the situation that we are in.”
