Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*
- Thread starter LutonSpurs
- Start date
I don't think it's going to be that pressurised. There will be obvious question marks do we not finish in the top half. But we have finished 17th twice in a row and we were relegated were it not for him.
No amount of investment guarantees anything, if we were to finish 8th (or even worse than that)I don't think his position would be under threat. It's the following season where I think results are going to be under real scrutiny....

Nah, pressure is when you get to the final day of the season, and have to win to confirm your Premier League survival.

We'll walk the top 6 with our eyes closed

I think that will come by passing it better. As simple as that sounds.

was top 5 stats wise in his 7 games in charge so far. ill take that for next season.
Outside the club, we will still fly under the radar (unless we are sitting top of table in December), pretty much every pundit not only has us not in top 6, but has Villa (who has been picked apart) ahead of us in their PL predictions
Inside the club, RDZ will have pressure, if we give him 9 PL ready players at a cost of 400M+, the goal is not top 10, it isn't even Europe, it has to be CL football. He'd be well served to prioritize whichever of the two domestic cups we get a more favorable draw in as well.

The LC is pretty much at the SF stage when the FA cup kicks off.

I never really got to the bottom of what you said. I know we were 5th on the form table over his 7 games, but never saw the double click into the other data points. It just felt like we conceded less but scored about the same and got over the line. We need to be scoring about twice as many as we concede this season in Roberto's new setup. Then we'll really compete.

De Zerbi will be putting that pressure on himself and the players anyway. You can tell from the way he talks and acts that his aim is to win and not just make up the numbers. Personally I don't think De Zerbi would be happy with a Champions League place, I think he will only be happy if we win the league.

Who else will be shown is on Roberto's farewell list, he only wants 21/22 players
In this moment I think no, we have Archie Gray, he prefers playing in the midfield position, but he can play very well also as a right-back.I think we are good. I don't want 25, 26 players, I want 21, 22 players, I think that's enough, especially if these players or more players, they can adapt in more positions on the pitch, and I think we have many players who can play in different positions, Gray midfielder, right back, Gallagher number 10 or number 8, it's the same Micky van de Ven or Ben Davies left back, I think we have Kudus, winger or number 10, we have a lot of solutions.

I think RDZ is the type of A+++ personality that he will put himself under a tremendous amount of pressure to have the team playing the very best they can regardless of pressure from outside or upstairs.
