Go away with your bullshit.

The guy only joined a couple of weeks ago and didnt have as much training as the others.

Its not bullshit though is it?

 

If "He won more headers than Batsuayi in 12 minutes" had looked good the few times he played this preseason we wouldnt be starting fucking Boga right now. People were already pulling out the Torres Era excuses last week.  He looked devoid of confidence, and thats why he isnt starting today. Conte is, rightfully so, protecting him.

It's really not difficult to understand. Morata is not a winger, therefore boga hasnt replaced morata. Michy is fitter at the moment probably which is why he starts. Morata to come on early second half.

So, you think Conte played our no.9 out of position, potentially screwing over his confidence, in an attempt to get him to run more and build up fitness just to relegate him to the bench when the season starts?

 

I don't know man.

Conte tried him there to see if it would work. It clearly didn't.

Fair enough.

 

For the record I hope you are right.

[Hamilton 2,118]

Nice first goal! Showed more in 10mins then Bats in 60! 

[Fernando 6,376]

Best thing that could happen. 

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,738]

Absolutely brilliant display.

 

Welcome Morata.

Bench Bats.

[Polo7 3,496]

He is our first choice striker. Completely changed the game. What a signing. 

[Blue Armour 4,164]

Goal and assist.

The sole bright spot to take away from this match.

[LAM09 6,547]

Could have been so different had he started. Conte better realise that from now on

[communicate 2,703]

Absolutely brilliant game, 1 goal, 1 assist with 9 men. Love the first move, touch control just shoot the ball to calm the nerve.

His link up play is also so clean.

Well it took bad results for Conte to make changes last season. 

Hopefully he realize about Morata but more importantly about Cahill!!!

poor mentality right???????

Shouldn't be that way, but might be a blessing in disguise going forward. Christensen gets an unexpected run and Morata can flourish.

Cojones. That's what I want from him. Absolutely loved his attitude when he was on. He's bought himself some massive massive credit with that performance.

Willian and David Luiz even though limited always give their best when things bad.
