You can't say that with certainty. Roma kicked mourinho out and then went on a storming run of form. It's clear a change of plan is needed, something ETH REFUSES to do.There are two different routes here.
Appoint an Interim that knows he's not getting the job long term. Pointless. Nothing really changes. A bit like Lampard at Chelsea last season.
Appoint an Interim with zero idea of what's coming next. Interim does well and gets the job on a permanent basis. Entire cycle repeats itself in 18 months or said Interim spends whole of next season under pressure because he knows he's not really the first choice longer term.
It might be painful for now but keeping Ten Hag (again, unless they've identified a permanent replacement that can start immediately) is the best option until the end of the season.
