There are growing reports that Venezia will start to consider sacking coach Eusebio Di Francesco after a fourth consecutive defeat left them rock bottom of the table.
The Lagunari were flattened 3-0 by Bologna at the Stadio Dall’Ara this evening, albeit by two soft penalties and a Dan Ndoye tap-in.
It was their fourth loss on the bounce, during which they scored one goal and conceded seven.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, the situation is increasingly tense and coach Di Francesco is now at risk of the sack.
They managed two victories all season, 2-0 against Genoa on September 21 and 3-2 with Udinese on October 30, along with two draws and nine defeats.
Venezia also crashed out of the Coppa Italia in the first round with a 3-1 loss to Brescia back in August.
The team was promoted from Serie B via the play-offs under coach Paolo Vanoli, who walked away over the summer to take the job at Torino.
