You don't need a body language expert to answer that question.

With a good squad, yes.
With the current fit bunch, absolutely not.

If he really doesn't he needs to do the honorable thing and leave.
Currently on the A31?
Probably not.

Think Bloom and Barber need to call him in tomorrow morning and ask him exactly the same question. Then THEY need to decide if THEY want him here irrespective of his answer!

Watching him on the touchline today he did not look like he wanted out. He was frustrated, raging and generally very unhappy. I don’t think he is looking for a way out but I am no longer convinced that he is the best manager for the club. His intransigence in how we play is not good given our injuries and recent form. Back to basics is the accepted way for a team in poor form, make sure you don’t lose before you try and win. We got ripped apart on Thursday and today with totally the wrong tactics given our form. Bournemouth could quite easily have bettered their 5-0 against us.

Be nice if they did but I think they’re not that type, we’re all very nice about everything after all. Probably wait until the summer.

If we get someone who can win once every 10 games it would be an improvement

I agree. PB is too wet but TB as a fan, will be hurting by what he's seeing. Thankfully, he sees the long game and makes decisions and not me but I'd like to think that RDZ knows this isn't good enough. I'm so fed up with his bollocks now.

Yes I think he’s got more stomach for the fight than those calling for his head

Sounds like he’s hanging the players out to dry here, from Naylor (Athletic)
Brighton have lost motivation - De Zerbi
Brighton & Hove Albion head coach Roberto De Zerbi says his players have lost motivation since going out of the Europa League and seeing another chance of qualifying for Europe via a high league finish disappear.
A 4-1 defeat on aggregate against Roma in the last 16 of the Europa League in March has been followed by a run of four league defeats and two draws including today's 3-0 loss at Bournemouth.
De Zerbi, asked if a tough situation was due to injuries or other factors as well, said: "Injuries, for sure. Motivation as well.
"Motivation in football, I think (that is) 80 per cent of my work and in my time we kept a big challenge, a big target. In this moment, finishing the Europa League, too many points from the Europe position in the table, we are working for not a clear target.
"It can happen. It's normal, but I cannot accept a game without soul, because we are Brighton and we have to keep respect for ourselves, for our club, for our fans, and I am sorry for that.
"I am suffering a lot, but I have worked in football for 30 years and I know it can happen. We have to stop this moment quickly."
Nope, he’s lost his passion for it, head turned by talk of a big club, hopefully he’ll call TB tomorrow and let him know he’s off at the end of the season.

But has he any real talent? Not that I can see, it’s not just one bad result it’s dozens!
