We will see what Tony decides to do. At the end of the season were likely to have carried relegation form (most seasons) for 32 games and while fans seem pleased about that I´m not sure being saved by handful of great games in August and September will be enough to save Roberto. Unless we win a couple of the last ones which looks very hard I think our poor run of form has been too long and with too few signs of any improvement to keep Roberto in his job. Keeping him for another season when he is in a massive slump that would have him sacked from most clubs is a big risk. If next season starts with a couple of poor results there would be panic and early manager change. Think Tony will just say bye bye to Roberto in the summer get a new voice and some belief into the team
I want to reply to this but don't quite know what to say. You have a very one eyed view of this season.

Although I agree, what's been weird about us is that we've had complete positions wiped out.

Full back, for instance, we had Veltman, Estupinan, Lamptey, Milner and Igor ALL out as the same time and were forced to play central midfielders at RB and LB for a number of games. Wingers too. There was a period when Adingra, March, Mitoma, Enciso and Pedro were all injured or unavailable. These two positions were both in this situation at around the same time and none of these were short term.

Having 8 injuries is no great issue if it's spread over a few positions in either the first or second choice spots, but ours wiped out 2-4 whole positions. In a team of 11, that's crippling.
Amazing some still can’t see that……..

One eyed? I would more say blindfolded view of the season. If you can’t see we have a really good manager I would suggest you don’t watch any football. Tony Bloom is delighted to have De Zerbi and won’t be sacking him even if we have a slow start to the season.
