Fulham owner Shahid Khan has given Felix Magath the dreaded vote of confidence after a disastrous start to the new season.
The Whites sit rock bottom of the Championship after four straight defeats and Craven Cottage supporters are becoming increasingly frustrated with the poor results.
Magath, who watched his side slump to a terrible 5-1 loss at Derby on Saturday, took charge of the club back in February but was unable to prevent the Whites slipping through the Premier League trapdoor.
However, Khan has leapt to the defence of the 61-year-old by insisting he is the right man for the job.
"We chose Felix as we wanted -somebody with experience of dealing with the threat of relegation," Khan told the Evening Standard.
"Even then, we knew we might not be successful and if, God forbid, the worst happened how would we deal with it.
"We knew the Championship was more physical. You've got to have a Plan A (to avoid relegation) and a Plan B (for promotion). Felix was the ideal person to execute both plans."
Magath’s record currently stands at three wins from 16 games in charge.
