Kovacic. And if Sarri think's he can do it and urges the club to sign him, he can fuck off.

Kante back will be a huge boost. Need Barkley to step up in RLC's absence.

So Simon is saying we've appealed and will hear the results shortly before the final, whereas the article is stating we haven't even approached CAS yet. Terrific.

Your opinion. I've seen us play out from the back and retain the ball better than we've ever had, and this is without major upgrades.

They won't. They want Koulibaly or Maguire.

Don;t believe for a second Barca want to sell Umtiti

Another top striker we miss out on.

Losing Chris Jones played a part

10 days and deadlineday. The amount of Drinkwater, Alonso, and Zappacosta signings we will see during those last hectic days, will be head banging.

This is genuinely concerning. Over the past 14 years, we've only had 2 strikers that made it here. Drogba and Costa. What the fuck is wrong with us?

Thank fuck.

We need a DoF, and not another YES MAN.

This is a charity publicity stunt. You don't think Buck pressured Sarri to play his strongest XI? People came to see Chelsea's stars, not their youth products and loanees. Sarri didn't want any of this, and it was blatantly obvious given how he reacted after RLC was subbed off.

Ban or no ban, Morata, Bakayoko, Zappacosta, Drinkwater, and Willian need to fuck off.

Given it is a publicity stunt, wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Sarri was pressured/forced by the club to play their strongest team. If not, he's much to blame. Honestly had it with this season. The fact that no one at the board level will lose their job, just shows how much RA doesn't give a fuck.

He's just referencing the article from La Gazzetta. Italy's Daily Mail.

Conte was supposedly sacked October 2016 IIRC

Fuck CM. That's Ruben's. Fuck LW as well. That's CHO's We need to be focusing on RW and ST first and foremost. After that, CB and LB.

No. They can't. It's been 6 years and 4 managers couldn't get Willian to hit 10 league goals a season. Pedro will be 32 in July Giroud and Higuain are not consistent strikers. I can't see how any manager can get the best out of them, when in reality they just arn't good enough. You're only supporting argument for Lampard, is that "he will demand respect and they will show more hunger and passion." Laughable.

Having a connection with the club is a bonus. The starting point should always be competency. Some people almost take the opposite viewpoint. Particularly with this new generation of football fans. Mental isn't it? Imagine the scenes. Our greatest ever player being mercilessly criticised 6 months in because he can't make Willian (who averages 5 league goals a season), an ageing Pedro, and Giroud firing. No thanks.

You realise we were lucky Barca and Bayern didn't thrash us then? Right? Was it our 'hunger and desire' that made Barca and Bayern miss all those chances? No. It was luck and it's something you need in football.

Convinced the bloke can't win. Even if he told the truth that the squad needs a massive overhaul, the Sarri Out brigade will complain that he is only dampening the team's morale ahead of an important semi final and potential final. Stay silent? He was asked a bloody question

You two are a bit over the top You are making it seem that players only find motivation from having a manager that is animated on the touch line or is screaming at them. What about Ancelotti or Allegri? These are professional footballers for goodness sake. If anything, they should be motivated seeing Sarri yelling at the ref for 90 minutes defending them. You are just finding excuses to the fact that our players simply aren't good enough. Conte is as animated as they come, yet we saw a total capitulation from the same players last season.

Huh? He's almost been sent off to the stands literally every game for screaming at the officials

You've just answered your own question.
