Conte is the first manager to do a league double over Pep.
-
We've done it. We just had to focus on ourselves and we did it. Massive result after the loss. Well in lads!!!
-
Someone like Bakayoko in midfield helps us gain control much more than a playmaker does. Honestly.
-
Hazard obviously missed on purpose. Trying to get that Non Penalty Goal stat. Grinding. Respect it.
-
Almost tempted to say that Matic is more useful than Kante in this game.
-
Alonso getting destroyed on that left hand side.
-
We have teams like Bayern, Juve and Real who have super left backs. Why should we settle for less? You wait till we get to the CL. In any case we should at least bring in competition for him. If someone like Alex Sandro becomes available on the market you would pass on him because we have Alonso? No one is saying he's a bad player. But we can improve.
-
Telegraph are reporting that we are after both Lukaku AND Sanchez, which I feel is correct.
-
PSG have Draxler, Lucas, Di Maria and Ben Arfa out wide, they shouldn't be so greedy.
-
Ever heard of Ashley Cole?
-
Thing is. Jose isn't the only one that's lamented Shaw's fitness. I'd take a gamble on him though. Think Conte's fitness regime would be awesome for him. Plus we do need the English talent as you said. He'd be good competition for Alonso.
-
If people are satisfied with Alonso or Moses being a starter for the next few years, we'll never be a super club tbh.
-
I don't know, he wasn't really impressive at Rennes either. Contrast someone like Pereira who's in the same team as him and still doing relatively well... huge question marks on whether Jeremie can make it at the very top level.
-
Being completely outshone by United's Pereira unfortunately.
-
I only put Hazard ahead because Messi doesn't seem to be as explosive with his dribbling anymore, but tbh you could argue he's still better. Nevertheless, those three are the top 3 dribblers on the planet right now.
-
Why is Morata worth more than £35m? Go on? Instead on trying to insult someone who has a different opinion to you, I suggest you try to argue against their point.
-
If we fail to get a top RB like Semedo, I'd be open to the idea I guess.
-
Only so much Conte can do tbh. I don't know if he has the capacity to improve like that.
-
Hazard is a better dribbler than Messi, not a better playmaker though. Doesn't have Messi's vision. Don't need stats to show that, just watch both play and tell me whether you think Hazard can execute half of the passes Messi does. Messi is very underrated as a creator tbh.
-
Adama Traore is a weird case. Don't understand how someone with such amazing dribbling and close control can be so brainless. Especially considering he was also schooled at La Masia. Maybe he'd be better training with top players everyday? If he had a bit of end product on him he'd be an absolute danger. Shame.
-
No chance. We have loads of people on the waiting list for season tickets, and people really struggle to get tickets in general. Can't remember the last time tickets went on general sale tbh.

Lukaku vs. other Top 7 clubs this season: Liverpool: 0G 0A Tottenham: 1G 0A City: 2G 0A United: 0G 0A Chelsea: 0G 0A Total: 3G 0A in 8 appearances Costa vs. Top 7 clubs this season: Liverpool: 1G 0A Tottenham: 0G 1A City: 1G 1A United: 0G 0A Everton: 1G 1A Total: 3G 3A in 9 appearances. What's remarkable for Costa is that he's been on 3G 3A since December 2016. We've played Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal since in the PL, and he hasn't contributed anything.
-
Our next 5 games: Man City (H) Bournemouth (A) Man Utd (A) Southampton (H) Everton (A) Spurs' next 5 games: Swansea (A) Watford (H) Bournemouth (H) Palace (A) Arsenal (H) Decides whether we'll win it comfortably or not.
-
Hope he drops Costa for Batshuayi if Diego produces another stinker.
-
Is that LVG's first season or last season?
