Should I repot tomato?

Good morning, hope you a having a lovely weekend. Just a quick question, I was given a large tomato plant (not sure of variety) which is now about a metre and a half and in a 25cm pot. This seems a little small, the roots are poking out of the bottom-should I repot it and risk knocking off all of the fruit and flowers? Or do tomatoes do ok in small pots? What would you do? I just can't decide!

Yes, I'd pot it on, planting it nice and deep - mine are in pots the size of a bucket ... you'll just have to do it carefully ... another pair of hands might be helpful if available

Fab, decision made, I'll do it! Thank you ?
