I think that the board feel some responsibility for the lack of key players signed in the summer. The three he wanted (centre back, box to box centre mid, left footed wide forward) were not signed.
I also feel they look at the VAR dramas which cost us 5pts.
Im sure they are also seeing we have our starting 2 centre mids out (who barely got to play together), Bernard and Delph too...
Whichever knives people have out against Silva, its important to remember that everything has gone against him.
This may actually work well in the favour for fans with Moshiri really opening up the chequebook in Jan.
