Who's to say he will? Conte has played Zappacosta at LB before

Everyone is waxing lyrical about their league triumph, so that's were it really matters. Who said there was. Just pointed at the fact Pep was fortunate at Barca and hasn't give youth much of a chance elsewhere.

http://metro.co.uk/2018/03/05/eden-hazard-tells-antonio-conte-got-tactics-wrong-manchester-city-7362495/I agree that all players should be punished for questioning a manager's decisions regardless of their standing within the club. Hazard hasn't exactly been in similar form to Salah to warrant otherwise.

How were Hazard's comments after the City game not similar & warrant the same action?

I was talking about graduates (only offered 46 mins) & not "youth" that cost £35-50m a pop. [emoji849]

Both. City are strolling to the title but hardly any changes have/will be made. Barcelona were able to live off a fine line of players, which had to end at some point. Very few clubs can afford to filled youngsters on a regular basis or have the desire too.

So do I. Hudson-Odoi should be getting considerable game time with the options ahead underperforming in recent weeks. No other way for youth to impress. However, it's probably wishful thinking considering Guardiola has given youth the least amount of playing time amongst the biggest sides and it was supposedly one of his plus points.

I'd rate Pasalic above all of them and he probably still won't get a look in. Around 2 whole squad out on loan with no first team action in sight.

His decision to join was largely down to our CL triumph, so it wasn't as if he had a long standing love for the club.

Played that role at Juve and the burden wasn't on him at Real. He simply doesn't have the characteristics

Three of us play away in midweek, so things could be completely different.

Other three teams in the FA Cup semis lost this weekend

Seems that way. Shocked Hazard didn't experience the same after the City game.

Conte remembers the horror show that was Arsenal away

He isn't the one who should be shouldering the blame. Been arguably our best CB this year. Drop our WB's and I wouldn't questions it

Shocked to here his omission was a tactical decision. Conte is certainly taking the piss

Never expected us to turn it around. Massive props to Giroud for scoring from nothing to start the turn around

Conte trying to hold onto the lead now. Hasn't exactly gone well in the past

Giroud coming up big today

Look what a goal does

He's not getting take off, so might as well be productive for the last 20.

Alonso with a decent cross. Only taken him most of the season

Our manager is giving off the vibe that has clearly rubbed off onto the players. Get rid of him ASAP

Shocker P.S. There seems to be an issue using Tapatalk

Just skip forward to the WC at that point
