Stand-in skipper Dan Burn gives his old U21s boss backing


Dan Burn has backed caretaker manager Kit Symons to land the Fulham job on a permanent basis.

The Cottagers U21 chief was placed in temporary charge of first-team affairs last week after Felix Magath was axed following a disastrous run of results.

Symons' chances of getting the gig full-time were boosted by Tuesday night's Capital One Cup win against Doncaster.




Heads I win: Dan Burn scores the second against Doncaster


And stand-in skipper Burn, who scored the second goal in the 2-1 win, says his old academy manager deserves to be Fulham's big cheese.

He said: " I had him as my U21s coach. He’s a very good coach and a very good guy.

"He’s very popular with the fans and I think we need a bit of stability in the club. I’m sure the chairman is assessing his options but I’d love him to get the job.



"He’s done really well. It feels a lot more organised out on the pitch. Everyone knows their positions. We’re doing more video analysis on the teams that we’re playing and he wants everyone to enjoy themselves.

"Training has been really good with loads of small sided games. It’s more about confidence but we know with the squad we’ve got we shouldn’t be anywhere near the bottom of the table.

"If we can shut up shop at the back there’s no doubt we can score goals for fun."
