So Edens had a knock and cant play today. Whats the difference with that and the games where he gets lost and doesn't get a look in? No difference apart from we will have Willian on in his place who will be doing everything he can to have a good game. If we have to rely on 1 player whoever it is then we are doing summet totally wrong. I got faith we will get a win. Thing I'm pissed about is I was trying to get one of the lads here a ticket that he ended up getting and me Mrs has been bad last couple of days so I cant make it!! Sods law. Good luck everyone thats gone. Give them a shout for me.

Tactical fouling of Eden Hazard is a matter of ‘respect’, insists Conte The top 10 most fouled players in the Premier League this season Eden Hazard – 75 Wilfried Zaha – 72 Diego Costa – 62 Paul Pogba – 58 Dele Alli – 52 Adam Smith – 50 Ashley Barnes – 50 Joe Allen – 49 Erik Pieters – 47 Raheem Sterling – 45 http://www.squawka.com/news/antonio-conte-not-worried-about-opposing-teams-targeting-chelsea-winger-eden-hazard/920727#h08q7YkRexKy7IJC.99

You can hear him if hes on form where I sit in in MH anf could just hear he was shouting. I broke into a chorus of "Hello Hello Conte Agro Conte Agro"

Cant see Bats liking it for a second tho,

He woulda mate, Suit us purfic! Shit thing is we cant sign Mystic Meg. Gotta love that bit considering what hes said about us defensively.

There would be total Anarchy amd class revolutions if Leicester managed to pull off the cup win. I would love to see it happen. Then we followed it up next year as we followed them this season. (make wood - no no sorry touch wood)

But I betchya if you look on any other teams forums theyre saying exact same thing with us and LBs since Cashley left. Come to think of it Ive said similar myself! Should have a game to see if we can name them all.

Out of those two yeah mate Im with ya. Pep Guardiola's priority is to stop this player joining Chelsea - Jamie Redknapp MANCHESTER CITY must go all out to sign Southampton defender Virgil van Dijk this summer. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/780277/Pep-Guardiola-Manchester-City-Chelsea-Jamie-Redknapp-Southampton-Virgil-van-Dijk

Chelsea Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Stefan de Vrij and Thibaut Courtois http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2698524-chelsea-transfer-news-latest-rumours-on-stefan-de-vrij-and-thibaut-courtois

So youre happy with our manager not being in charge of or at least having a veto as far as transfers go? It leads to spending £30 odd million on players that keep the bench warm because the manager has no faith in his playing ability. He has at least earened the right to be given that chance to fuck up by himself. Who knows, IF Mou was given the chance to bring in players the summer after we won (which is the sensible thing to do after a winning season) then things might just have turned out alot different I am only surmising that Mou wasn't allowed transfers. It may have been his reasons we didn't do business that summer as I stated above.t

I'm afraid so would I mate. Being manager of the supposed current best team in England and not being able to pick my own players would send me crazy. But Shirley that would be an important term in the contract before ytou signed it. Specially if it was said to be a problem with the previous mnanger too. But it seems Conte is calling BS on the problem so we shall see in the summer.

Antonio Conte denies wanting more control over Chelsea transfers Really not liking this bit http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11668/10804927/antonio-conte-denies-wanting-more-control-over-chelsea-transfers

Red tape and PC gone bonkers!

Yeah I dont understand it. That guard takes pleasure in greeting and shaking all the lads hands. Wonder if its Contes OCD about washing his hands lol Sounds petty tho

Chelsea Football Club will break new ground this year when we visit Singapore for the first time as part of our summer tour. Antonio Conte and the Blues squad will play two matches at the National Stadium in the Lion City as we return to Asia for our 2017/18 pre-season preparations. http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2017/03/double-header-in-singapore.html

Intermediaries at work on Chelsea La Liga transfer, even Jose Mourinho could get involved Thursday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo claims Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic has been offered to Barcelona via intermediaries. http://sportwitness.co.uk/intermediaries-work-chelsea-barcelona-transfer-even-mourinho-get-involved/

Scored a cracker yesterday Former Chelsea midfielder Ramires scores top corner beauty for Jiangsu Suning in AFC Champions League The 29-year-old's pearler proved to be the difference as Jiangsu Suning ran out 1-0 winners against Japan side Gamba Osaka http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/former-chelsea-midfielder-ramires-scores-10039518

I think that was pretty clear from soon after season opened. What it makes me wonder is if I was blaming Mou for us not reinforcing after winning the league after I thought his ego was telling him he could win with the same lads again and all the while Emenalo was telling |Roman we didn't need to buy in OR Roman thought it himself OR there was a knot in the purse strings for some reason or other. I just hope it gets sorted or we will have the inevitable revolving managers door yet again (UNLESS of course Roman wants Conte out to bring in Simeone) BUT THEN AGAIN WOULD WE REALLY WANT THIS???? According to The Times, Conte was disappointed to see Chelsea sell the experienced Oscar, Branislav Ivanovic and John Obi Mikel in January, and has therefore asked for greater control on arrivals and departures.
