Do you get the impression that Mark Silva is a magician? Approximately so it is. Until now, the career of the coach has been constantly on an upward trajectory, and it is unlikely that the dismissal from Watford will change this.

Mark began training in 2011 in Estoril, who then performed in the second division of Portugal. Achievements? Exit to the first time, immediately finish in it on the 5th place, then on the 4th. Not bad for a newcomer to the elite, is not it?.

After that, there was one of the three whales of Portuguese football - Sporting. Mark took the third place with the "lions" (and Estoril rolled back to the 10th without him) and won the club's first trophy for seven years - the Portuguese Cup. In the group of Championships, Sporting finished third, behind Schalke with only a point with a much better goal difference. Idylls did not work out: Silva had disagreements with the leadership because of transfers, and formally the reason for the dismissal was the refusal to Mark to wear a club suit for the match of the Cup with the Vizela.

Without work, our hero for a long time did not remain - he took Olympiakos, with whom he broke the record of the championship of Greece in the number of victories in a row and won the duty for the Piraisi champion. And the day before the preparation for the next season - withdrawal "for personal reasons".

Adopting the course of the Hull City season, Silva gave fans of the "Tigers" hope for salvation, but this time it turned out that his magic is not powerful enough. Only in the 37th round Hull lost the hope of retaining residence in the elite. Hull, but not Mark Silva. The management of the "Tigers" wanted to retain the Portuguese coach, but his plans included the Premier League, and not the Championship.

The media wrote about Crystal Palace and Southampton, but the most substantive interest was shown by Porto and Watford. After reflection, Mark led the "hornet", from which he first turned upside down.

The fact that Watford for Silva - just a staging post, there was no doubt. The leadership of the "hornet" has a great conceit. For two seasons in a row, it fired good results Kike Sanchez Flores and Walter Mazstar. But whatever one may say, the prefix "top" is not applicable to their club at all, and financial opportunities are relatively modest.

Mark started well at Watford - so much so that the wealthy Everton desperately wanted to get him after a couple of months of working with "hornets". The club retained Silva, but the results have since been catastrophic: 1 victory, 2 draws and 8 losses in 11 matches. Is it then necessary to be surprised at the resignation? The Portuguese initially came to the club with a cold calculation - with the same cold-bloodedness Watford bosses him and fired.

It is unlikely that Silva will disappear from the radar. Southampton, who has now descended into the relegation zone, may well recall the summer interest in Mark and offer him a job. It is not excluded and the option in the summer with Everton, in which not everything is smooth in the one who wanted to complete the career of Sam Allardyce. And if Silva in the next half of the season will show excellent results, then in the summer of 2019 a contract will end with a Frenchman in London ... Look at his results: Mark Silva is a magician. Look at his behavior: Mark Silva - an ordinary mercenary. In his future there will be more clubs and more Watford. But this is in the future. In the meantime, Mark Silva is unemployed. He did not have a love affair with the club, the fans of the "hornet" will not long for him and if you think about it, then pity the dismissal of the Portuguese also does not cause.
