If Conye has decided he wants him then its good enough for me. If anyone can tell if a CM is good enough to play with us then its Conte.All thays supposedly happened so far is personal terms are agreed. Summer is a long way off . But seeing as ?I dont know very much at all about him, from what Ive read,seen,read your commenys he seems pretty good.

Maybe his calf injury is worse than we thought. Or Tite head doesnt like him? But might go deeper as he wasn't selected for the Copa America neither. Maybe its a Chelsea thing? We did have quite a few of their players at one time which you would think was a benifit all playing together regularly. But with Diego opting for Spain who knows what goes on with team selection lol

Or at least an organized event! Which Premier League club has the most international call-ups? What I find interesting is theres only 1 Italian in the PL http://www.skysports.com/football/news/12040/10808673/which-premier-league-club-has-the-most-international-call-ups

How can you say that? Or was it sarcasm? If so ignore rest We hardly have a drop of creativity and what we do have (Cescy) we hardly utilise. We only really have Luiz that can get the ball forward from the back and the majority of the time he tries to boot it up looking for Diego. We dont have any in CM. Our 2 lads are great defensive wise but neither really a B2B. Even with Matic getting a couple of assists and N'Golo finding his way to the final 1/3 more often we dont have anyone to partner N'golo to get thru solid defences. We need a strong technical CB who can dribble himself safe to pass it forward and not just boot it clear and dreferably one that can get air and a solid link up with our CMs. Our top 3 are not getting the ball often enough and we need to find ways to do it.

I just cant see him being the answer we need right now. Theres no doubting the lads going to have a great career and prob the best player at BM but we need a creative, technical CB. Someone who is not only strong defensively but is comfortable on the ball and able to take the ball upfield some to start an attack. Andreas is strong defending but as far as offence he isn't strong enough yet. It would be good for us to keep him on now and carry on his training etc on site unless he gets a year at a PL side who could work on him and still get regular playing time.|Caue I cant see him coming back to sit on the bench with his parents and Thorgen bending his ear. I think he would be good on ariel set pieces tho with the right training. https://streamable.com/lvomu

I think Willian did a pretty fair job as his stand in V Stoke TBH but its hard for anyone to replace Eden when hes feeling it. Our/His problem is that he needs to start looking for that switch that turns himself on when he/we need him. You watch Eden when he comes out. If hes on you see the cheeky chappy, dancing, laughing thinking "I'm the dogs dangleys" and hes on fire. But then theres times he comes on with that the lights on but nobodys at home look. Hes definitely got some personal doubts but why? Hes the main force of the leading team in the toughest league there is. His manager, team mates and supporters think hes made from Unicorn tusk and the sun shines from his arse. What more incentive,love,power does a player need to do his bollox every week.

So who would you say had scored the most goals by headers this season? I'll give you a clue its not us! We only have 5! Give in? Take a butchers, You won't believe which Premier League side has scored the most goals from headers WHICH Premier League side has scored the most goals from a header? http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/781694/Premier-League-statistics-goals-headers-sportgalleries

Not so good, Eden Hazard sidelined for up to two weeks with calf injury http://www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/chelsea/injury-news/news/hazard-sidelined-for-two-weeks-with-calf-injury_294239.html

The trouble we supporters have is all we can do is guess. We would get a better idea of what he had in mind IF we knew the players that he was trying / had tried to get. Bur as we dont normallt find out the players he tried for till months after it leaves us coming up with loadsa daft conclusions. All Id like to see is us not penny pinching and going for a standard of player to fit into the 1st team, And hopefully he will be the one pulling the strings and not 2 penpushers who are glorified salespersons, Let them do the schmoozing and paperwork which theyre good at.

I was thinking maybe 4-2-4 which is what he was wanting to start with. As for Mou he never got shouted at or slagged off (by most of us) on his 1st visit back. We even sang his name ffs. All the shit got stirred up after he himself started slagging off everything Chelsea. Who knows if it was tongue in cheek or his BS mind games. What it does is leaves a bitter taste in your mouth and removes some of that shine from the great memories we had together. I dont hold any grudges or bad feelings to him but till he leaves Manvland or starts remembering us for wshat we did thenhe is just like any other Manc and can fuck off! This is how your proper Chelsea supporter feels after a win and the epitome of excitement!

I dont think Willian got the love he earned against Stoke. I thought the lad had a pretty good game and the goal he scored was a cracker.

Sorry but Im still not feeling him. I do think hes looking a little less like Bambi on ice skates but dont see any reason why he shouldn't be out on loan learning how to do it week in week out. Tho as we are in dire need of HG players he will probably end up keeping the bench warm again unless he wants out come summer.

Suso (Ex Bindipper) Exclusive: Milan, Suso has attracted the interest of Chelsea and Juventus CHELSEA HAVE INTEREST - According to Calciomercato.com sources, in the past few days Chelsea have been involved on the Suso front. Conte likes him a lot and has added him to his wish-list for next summer's transfer market. The Blues would like to bring him back to the EPL but talks are only at an initial phase as of now. Juventus are another club who like him a lot as Marotta wants to add an offensive winger to his team (they also like Bernardeschi very much so). http://www.calciomercato.com/en/news/milan-suso-is-having-a-great-season-as-chelsea-and-juve-have-str-29772

Will be a toughie I think The Sun: Bournemouth have seen a bid rejected for Ake after a successful loan spell at Dean Court earlier this season. That leaves the door open for Southampton to target him if fellow Dutchman Van Dijk makes the move to Stamford Bridge. Landing VVD will cost more than £50million as Saints chairman Ralph Krueger is determined to keep him and has tied his player to a deal with five years left to run.

I've never disliked the old gurner. His character is what our players need to have more of. Not one of us doubts ih love,passion and enthusiasm for the club but this really can't be a time for sentiment. If we could keep him on the bench to just use for set pieces then great, keep him. But unfortunately our defence needs more than Gazza can give us and he needs upgrading. Also I cant see Ake,Christensen or sadly Happy having enough to help us in Europe neither. Whether Christensen will be good enough to keep to work with we shall see. But Contes got some big decisions to make and this is one.

Benjamin Mendy Chelsea Transfer News: Antonio Conte Eyes Benjamin Mendy, Top Blues Rumours http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2698907-chelsea-transfer-news-antonio-conte-eyes-benjamin-mendy-top-blues-rumours

Not knowing much about him Ive got to go by what I read,watch and everything points to him being a very good player. His supporters on youtube love him and think he would be great in the PL. And from what Ive read it seems he likes the idea of coming to us over Mounure.And Conte APPARENTLY prefers him over going for Radja! Manchester United target Tiemoue Bakayoko keen on move to Chelsea Antonio Conte, the Chelsea manager, is a big fan of the France U-21 international and he is willing to spend big for him. Chelsea are also interested in Roma’s Radja Nainggolan, but Conte feels the Monaco star is a good long-term option. http://sportslens.com/manchester-united-target-tiemoue-bakayoko-keen-on-move-to-chelsea/209985/

You gotta think that Wenger must shirley be upset about the state over there right now. Now I detest their club and him but if it was any other manager I could have empathy on how he felt. Having had such a successful era to go into a long bland time must hurt, and he would want to put that right before he left. But as vinegar tits ego and stuborness rules his head lets hope it only gets worse for them. There really cant be many of their supporters that would sign a petition begging him for 4 more years but I'd sign it.

Lalana missed opeen goal

Spoke too soon

Cmon Lolpool!

Didier Drogba could help Chelsea seal huge summer deal CHELSEA are reportedly hoping Didier Drogba’s friendship with Romelu Lukaku will help them land the Everton star. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/597991/Chelsea-Transfer-Gossip-Rumours-Didier-Drogba-Romelu-Lukaku-Latest-CFC-News He would love the chance to become like Drogs for us!

This summer coming up is probably going to shape our club for the next 5 seasons. We definitely need 4 or 5 and that includes Cahill. And I cant see that Ake,Christensen would help us in Europe. It will show us the kind of players Conte wants. And altho I do think has earned that right to pick or at least veto new signings it also worries me some that he didn't want to lose Oscar,Bane or Rami. So lets hope the players we want are free and that they also dont put up obstacles about coming to us!
