"We are working 70% less this season. We are playing every two days, it's impossible and we are paying for this.

"When you play every three days it's impossible to work on the tactical aspect and physical aspect.

"I think we are paying less attention in every detail.

I'm not liking the negativity coming out from our camp. Other top teams are in the same situation as us, of course our squad is smaller, but complaining about the schedule doesn't bring anything good imo.

Well Conte, others are playing every three days too. What you really wanted to say is this:

"When you play every three days it's impossible to work on the tactical aspect and physical aspect WITH THIS BUNCH OF PLAYERS. MAYBE WITH SOME BETTER TEAM YES."

Fake news,Conte did not say "Chelsea's playing schedule is impossible".Conte said that workloads are 70% less because it is impossible to train as last year playing every 3 days.

According to mephobia (99% accuracy)!

 

[positivefootball 195]

Just realizing more and more how much this team is average when certain players are overplayed. Bakayoko and Cesc in midfield in relegation stuff. Alonso and Azpi overworked. Poor guy.

It does look as if the players are pulling another power play by jogging around the pitch and not taking the game seriously. If so they are a fucking disgrace to the badge and owe the fans a lot more. I won't put up with another Mourinho-esque saga. Travelling fans pay their good hard earned cash to watch these overpaid wankers throw a strop and under perform. If they don't like some of Contes decisions then tough fucking luck. Go and play for a mid table team where they need to play their best players despite their attitude... go play for a shitty little club who trains like what they are. I am sick of watching grown men acting like bitches at the cost of our money and time. Conte is a fantastic manager with player and game experience other managers just can't buy. These average footballers who should feel blessed they are wearing our shirt under whilst being managed by such a character. Who do they think they are? Seriously? We are not Real Madrid. I'd love to have a 30 minute sit down with some of these clowns.

[Laylabelle 9,292]

That's what pisses me off everytime 'dont want to play for the manager' Grow up!!! In real life if don't like the manager you either leave or get on with it don't just think nahhh sod this! 

Like you said the fans make the effort turn in week in week out turn up for them! It's no excuse and if keeps happening then the problem needs to be addressed

If the players were trying to get Conte sacked then we would have lost the last 2 games. It's not power play that's going on. There's still fight in this team.

We just have a small squad hit with injuries that has a lot of average players and the system no longer masks that.

Nonsense.. I really don't think that's the case. 

We started off poorly in the league (plus we wont it last year) so I think in that sense the players are not as highly motivated as they could have been. We're also playing in Europe now plus that whole injury crisis thing..

This is nowhere near as bad as the Jose saga, we have to lose the next seven league games for thing's to be that bad, statistically at least. 

I think this player's downing tools thing is fantasy, the reason it went wrong under Jose was because he pushed the player's to the point of mental exhaustion with his intense behavior (and believe me, you can't give your best with a poor mental state no matter how hard you try). This season however it's a combination of many thing's, poor tactics by Antonio, injury's, player's off form, wingbacks getting found out. Unfortunately there does seem to be some truth in the player's not being happy with Conte but i certainly don't think they will start throwing games.

[Georgy 439]

Wonder what will happen if Conte does see out the season. Will he continue? I wouldn't honestly, he can always attract big money clubs like PSG and Milan while at Chelsea he got fucked in the ass 2 years in a row by the board. 

[Beigl 1,387]

Ranieri also won a Premier League and he managed that with Leicester.
Conte is actually an ultra limited manager in terms of tactics.

Lets not forget he won the league with Moses and Alonso as starters and a thin squad compared to the ones Guardiola and Mourinho have got.

[Miki-Liki 405]

Lol, I wonder which coach is supposedly tactically "unlimited".
