He could be a great playmaker if he keeps up with impressive passing. Maybe he is the new CAM and Kenedy our left winger

Kenedy can also score and play well as a winger. See his game against Walsall.

Good debut with a great assist. Gets himself in the right positions to score as well. Good to see. I was kinda surprised with his sub as he was playing so well.

His first start as a LB was against Norwich I think. Maybe some tactical reasons there that we can't see, but the coaches can see?

I want to know what happened with Kenedy and why he was substituded. If it was because he was tired/Baba is better in defence then alright. If it was because of the goal then WTF since Iva also made a mistake for the goal. Also spotted Kenedy and Redmond fighting a little just before. Also, what happened at the Chelsea bench? Some arguments between supporters and players/coaches?

I get the change. Kenedy was looking very tired out there.

What is Thibaut doing!??!?!

I just like him more and more after each second he plays!

No reason to drop Baba really. Just when he was getting his feet in the first 11 one bad pass makes it all go away. Of course we don't know whats going on behind the scenes. Maybe he is resting Baba? Saying all this even though Kenedy is one of my fav players in Chelsea.

My mistake. I thought Conte was much older than he is I know Hughes isn't young. It was just an idea saying that sometimes the "small names" are good enough. Hughes isn't crap at all. Ancelotti is a terrible example as he had won the CL recently, and is one in a thousand managers that everyone knows is a football genius. Howe is not "crappy" and has achieved a lot (some people don't think there are leagues under the PL in England apparently). As I said before. Conte is a good manager and I would welcome him here. I was merely stating that maybe it would be a good thing to look in the direction of someone who knows "English football".

Van Gaal has no choice with all the injuries really. The Tottenham players are just crazy good.

I would also, of course, welcome Conte. However, I do worry about the transition from Italy to England (Cuadrado, Salah is doing great there now). Its a whole different playstyle and all that. Conte is said to be very smart so I think he will adapt. Just a question of do we want another season like this one in order for that to happen? Reports say that Roman wants a long term manager. I can't think of a better "long term manager" than a young one who has been doing well. Just my two cents

We had no manager when we attracted the worlds biggest young player at the time: Eden Hazard. Well since you only base your logic on where his team is placed right now, then he is ready to challenge Mourinho. Mou didn't get us very high in the table this season did he? Also keep in mind the squad he has and the squad Mou had. Getting your low rated team from near-relegation in Football League 1 to the PL (and in a place where the team would still be in the PL next season) is not a "good showing" in the lower leagues. Its a terrific one! Hence the "football league manager of the decade award". Some think I meant that we should go all out for Howe. I wasn't saying that. What I was trying to say is that he is worth a shout. And do you think Conte is ready to challenge José, Pep and Klopp?

"he was the youngest manager in the Football League when appointed Bournemouth manager in January 2009.[2] Howe rescued Bournemouth from relegation out of the Football League in his first season in charge, after the club started the season on -17 points, then led them to promotion the next. After a brief spell as manager at Burnley Howe returned to Bournemouth and led them to two further promotions in three seasons resulting in the club playing in the top flight of English football for the first time in their history. Howe's successes with Bournemouth resulted in him being given the inaugural Football League Manager of the Decade Award in 2015". This is from wikipedia. Its not like he just got the team and getting them to 15th place. He got them from relegation in the football league to the PL for the first time in the clubs history! He is also young (38) and has proved that he can stay at one club for a long time. He is also English, which some value dearly on this forum. Some people also wanted Zola to be our manager. While he is a legend, he didn't get the team promoted to the PL and is now managing in Qatar. Not that impressive either considering your logic.

In Italy yes. Rodgers was fucked over by Liverpool (transfer commitee) and Howe has done really well with what he had/has. What a great point. Really great way to start a discussion on a forum

Am I the only one who is for an young manager who has done something great in recent years? I know people like Pochettino, but what about Eddie Howe? Has been great at Bournemouth! Mark Hughes at Stoke is also a good shout. Man I wouldn't even be that against getting Brendan Rodgers. He knows English football, not Conte Conte would be a good option though. I'm just afraid that he won't understand English football, and how to make his tactics work there. As we have seen, Italian football is very different from the PL.

So true. One does think if the hoes stay more loyal, though, when they are in a relationship with an attractive, rich footballer?

Got a picture of his girlfriend on his ribs. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3458596/Tats-got-hurt-Chelsea-star-Kenedy-goes-needle-Brazilian-gets-face-girlfriend-etched-ribs.html Lets hope they won't break up

We seem to do better with interim managers than with full time managers lol

I still worry about Kenedy not getting to play as well.

Well done Traoré WTF Oscar!!

What does Guus have against Kenedy?!?!

We also did field a B-Team against Liverpool and won couple seasons ago

Miazga to make his debut?

If he keeps impressing, he will have a role in the team. Ask Courtois! 2 years is still a long time, and we can extend his contract while all this time (plus the 18 months) are ongoing.
