The discontent amongst West Ham fans is clear to see. The Hammers are far from happy with their recent form and who can blame them seeing as they’ve won just a single game out of their previous nine. It’s not been helped by Lucasz Fabianski’s absence, though, as his replacement, Roberto, isn’t good enough.
Is Roberto out of his depth in the Premier League? https://t.co/pFk7OQOaX9

Yesterday, Football.London’s West Ham correspondent Sam Inkersole took to Twitter to conduct a fan Q&A and one of the questions that came up was about the club’s stand-in Spaniard, with the fan in question asking if the shot-stopper is out of his depth.
However, this is one that Inkersole didn’t really need to go into, seeing as the fans were very quick to flock into the comments and fire their own opinions across, as many of them cannot stand seeing the goalkeeper keeping net, seeing as he’s already made a number of high profile mistakes.
Will Fabianski's return save the season?
Yes
No
You can read the Hammers’ thoughts on Roberto here:
I bet he starts against Spurs in our next game….
Pellegrini is to stubborn to admit he is out of his depth.— Jay83 (@Jay8320) November 13, 2019
He’d be out of his depth in my old Sunday league team! The bloke couldn’t catch a cold

By a long way. He seems to keep in a different post code.

He’d be fine for back up games like first couple rounds of cup ties. That’s about it. Such a shame Fabianski got injured

He’d be out of his depth in the Ryman’s League

It’s not that he is out off his depth but the premier league has moved on since he was at man city. The way we play does not work anymore in prem league but he persists with it regardless. Could see this Last season and was surprised still had support until recently. #coyi

The fans are not at all fans of Roberto, and as far as they’re concerned Fabianski can’t return quickly enough.
