Pog will be great for PR and selling shirts but I reckon N'Golo would be BETTER FOR US with a Conte attitude.

YAHOOOOOOOOYA!!!! Already bonding with Happy His names N'Golo Kante he came across the sea He left that team called Leicester cuz he loves CFC His names N'Golo Kante tell everyone you see La La La La La La La - La La La La La La La La La La La La La - La La La La La La La La La La La La La - La La La La La La La La La La La La La - La La La La La La

Weren't being funny just stating a point I know we gotta keep an eye on HG but I just dont agree wit that rule. Did once when I used to follow England around but I'm more for club than country now.

And all I keep hearing is 'We are waiting for the right players' I'm like a fruit jelly thinking we are going to be fielding JT/Cahill and Bane again. Ive had this nightmare too long as it is. Cant we get some miracle worker to lay hands on Happy?

I couldn't give a toss what nationality our players are just as long as they're bloody good eh. But can't see this 16 year old making it into a 1st team any time soon.

Hes a machine bruv. A bloody rusty one but a machine.

I dont mind mate. Theres been reasons to sack or keep all of them but if we dont start giving 1 a good chance, put full faith in him and back him to the hilt then its going to be an ever revolving managers door. I understand that in this day and age theres not many managers (or players) that stay with one club like Fergi/Vinegar tits/JT but wouldn't it be good to get one to stay 3 years?

I agree mate but I'm afraid going by our not too distant history I dont hold much faith in it. I'm fulle emersed in the project and with some proper defenders it should be the bollox but the thing is what does Roman ad Buck consider as successful? Will they say 6th is a big jump, top 4, FA or League cup? And say we make top 4 and in CL again. Will they EXPECT silverware next year? Will they sack him if not? Even if he has integrated youth into the 1st team and playing regular? We have sacked managers for a fuckin lot less. Look at Carlo. Does the double his 1st season - sacked the next. AVB given boot after what, 3/4 months? Mou coimes back wins league - club goes tits up in every direction but rightly or wrongly Mou gets the royal shaft. If I had been Roman I'd have kept things chilled, take Mou away for coupe of days to get on the same page and say what the fuck can we do to cear this shit up. But he throws his toys out the pram and listens to the changing room/Emenalo and al and makes him the easy option to save face. I understrand results/silverware is the only thing that keeps Roman happy but imagine if we was NORMALLY a mid table team. How much easier it would be. They would be extatic to see the project working and the team progressing each season over a couple of years then to be fighting both home and Europe. We keep doing what we are doing we wont achieve fuck all. We need to usae Conte like that North London club used Vinegar tits. Build the club into having its own character so when the time does come that the manager needs replacing we can hire one to fit Chelseas character and not change us to suit ervery new maager. Talk about MPD! (Multiple Personality Disorder) .

Be about as much as we see of Pedro me thinks.

Nemanja Matic warms to Chelsea stay after being given 'special feeling' by new boss Antonio Conte Matic admits Real Madrid would not have suffered same slump as Blues I wish he would hold his hands up and admit that the players should hold some responsibility tho I would also like to see a formation of 3-1-2-4 used at some time with Cescy behind Matic/N'Golo - just as long as we got the right defenders brought in http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3714397/Nemanja-Matic-warms-Chelsea-stay-given-special-feeling-new-boss-Antonio-Conte.html#ixzz4FnNQbQOz

Arsenal open talks to sign Shkodran Mustafi Hes got a £42mill realease clause http://soccerlens.com/arsenal-open-talks-to-sign-shkodran-mustafi/197553/

Sport in general is big business bud. The way of the world. Speculate to acumulate.

Took a fuckin wild imagination to come up with this one eh. Looks like those cheap white T's that you wash once and they go baggy - without being washed. No style whatsoever. Nike really aint got to try hard to make it better.

Personally for Contes system I would take N'Golo over Pog and I honsetly couldn't be happier we have him. I think hes the buy of tis season so fare. BUT I would have jumped for the chance of Pog. Ive had this dream of Pog/Happy/Varane but that boat has sailed So we now need a shit hot CB to replace Varane. As for money I cant see the problem apart from his apparently £800k a week wages! He will pay for himself many times over in endorsements, image rights and shirt sales. And just look atall the new supporters that they will get worldwide. I think its perfect business sense.

As long as theyre doing their job you can let 1 spit his dummy out and its coming to the end of Kompany so just rotate the other 3. A problem I'd love us to have.

I domt think our dealings with them for Lukaku has done yet.

Bloody great to see Drogs score against them North Londoners. Nothing changes!

That smile of Happys makes me smile too. Got a good mate just an older version of him and sttarted calling him Happy. I'm afraid hes from North London tho!!!

Theyve got the upper hand. Theyve got loadsamoney so can buy Maskimovic and wait till last day of transfer window to see if they can build this bidding war up. Sellers fuckin market. I just hope we havent stopped looking for FBs cause we dont stand a cat in hels chance of doing owt decent without them.

These ones??

What I like about Contes interview was his insisting that Cescys red doesn't stop them from going in hard. The Italian wants viewers to turn on the TV and recognise his team from their style and identity without noticing the individual players, the colour of the kit or the badge on their chests. 'I like my team to play with great aggression and high intensity,' said Conte. 'I like to see that. 'We train to prepare for that because I want that my team has an identity. 'I want that if you see Chelsea you recognize: Oh, Chelsea are playing. That is important for me, it is important for the club and the owner; everyone.' At Juventus he was able to blend this with success, winning the Serie A title three times in three years, playing an aggressive and intense brand of football. 'This is my football and everywhere I have been I have been I have worked at that,' said Conte. 'I always gave an identity to my teams. 'I am searching to transfer this to my players and I am pleased because I see a great attitude. 'I want to continue in this way because this is the only way to come back very soon for the title. Not to speak, but actions. Now is not the moment to talk.'

Thats not in US. Hes got French top on
