Conte has 45 mins to save his job

At the point where he is sabotaging us. Baka & Cahill start again and look who are involve in the two big moments.

Only has himself to blame at this point

Conte pleased with his contribution?

Bakayoko is going to gift them a goal one way or another. Pathetic

I thought 3-0 defeat at home to Bournemouth would be a wake up call. Clearly not

False nine and Baka & Cahill retain their places. I'm shocked

The board have left him out to dry. That's who's support or lack of, you should be questioning.

He's English along with Alli. Salah would have been crucified if he was in that position.

Need a CF for us to have any hope

Dumb and Dumber

Ended up good for us. Have to feel for Salah after that sensational goal

A draw is ideal, so we stay in fourth regardless of tomorrow.

Fair enough. Keep him on the bench till then

It's all dependant on your style. We supposedly bought a ball playing CB in Rudiger. How has that work out this far? Tevez played as CF most of the time for Juve - https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/carlos-tevez/leistungsdaten/spieler/4276/plus/0?saison=2014 https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/carlos-tevez/leistungsdaten/spieler/4276/plus/0?saison=2013 Almost 55 goals in two seasons & involved in another 21. Morata alone is the issue and nothing else IMO.

I don't disagree. I'm just going off what we have/had; Michy had a presence that any striker we play at this club needs to have instead of someone falling like a leaf. Think the general problem nowadays, is people wanting everything from players regardless of where they play. Basics should be come first whilst the rest follows. This point keeps coming up but how can one adjust with limited game time. How many players are going to go down the same route?

Who's meant to score, then? Alonso? Every player is employed & deployed to do a job. If our CF can't score, we might as well call it a night.

I rarely criticised Michy and said on numerous occasions that he was the best CF on our books. His debut performance has little bearing on my post other than reaffirm my point. Conte needs to know when to drop deadwood instead of beating the same useless horse. Michy probably isn't the man to lead us in the coming years but his was the best option we had. All we can do is hope Giroud can do a similar job to Costa, as Morata ain't.

It was Conte who favoured a CF that hasn't looked like scoring in his last 10 games (unable to score with his feet almost all season). This favouritism nonsense is something I despise.

Watford failed to score against the worst defence in the league. Should be the same of Cahill is left at home

I believe we have little to no hope of beating Watford if he play with a false 9 again.

What does your crystal ball say about our impending defeat to Watford?

That sentiment could be applied to the majority of our first XI at this point. Don't think we've needed a clean out more than we do now.

Think the saga in China hurt him massively this season.

I never said he would be my choice but several reports are pointing his way. We seriously need an identity going forward
