Mark Crossley is certain former club Fulham will seal an immediate return to the Premier League.

The Cottagers went into the new campaign following a summer of change, with boss Scott Parker departing by mutual consent and taking on the Bournemouth job.

Following relegation to the Championship and Parker’s exit, Marco Silva was appointed as head coach on a three-year deal having already managed Hull City, Watford and Everton in the Premier League.

Silva reacted by boosting his squad with the £12million arrival of Wales international winger Harry Wilson from Liverpool and ex-Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga heading to west London.

Fulham have got their campaign off to a promising start and went into the weekend undefeated after three outings back in the second tier of English football.

Crossley, who featured between the sticks for Fulham during his playing days, is adamant Silva and his squad are capable of enjoying success this season.
