Unless the reason for the sacking was due to the manager's behaviour more so than results.Yeah. It’s not his fault. He also seems a fairly likeable chap. But the whole point of sacking a manager is to change things, you don’t change things by leaving his right hand man in charge.
We were dire and he had to go but it was not unreasonable to think that having Conte (or his amanuensis) finishing the season would have been better than a totally new character and approach. (Although this was what we would have preferred)
