Marco Silva believes the gap between the Premier League and the Championship is increasing and that it will become much harder for sides to replicate what Fulham achieved last season by retaining their top-flight status. Burnley, Sheffield United and Luton Town are yet to secure a win this season after their promotion to the Premier League, with Sheffield United suffering an 8-0 defeat at home to Newcastle on Sunday.

They are going to feel it tomorrow. You have to be humble enough to understand this is an important competition.
