Liking things a lot so far, obviously far from being 100% but the signs are very encouraging. Attack looking a lot better, despite playing with inept full backs, the boys deserved a goal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gomes atm needs to go to a better team (needs a better coach). He needs to develop himself tactically and hone his decision making by a fair margin (a bit like Renato, but the latter is only 18 and physically a monster). IMO João is the better pick between both, although I may be biased since he's my favourite player lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, he's a B2B, he even started the season there. Only moved to the right flank when William came back from his injury and Carrillo went out of the team. It worked brilliantly at Sporting but it didn't work in the NT, the dynamics were very different. It's not a coincidence that his best stretches in the Euro were when he played more central instead of being isolated on the wing. He's one of the few players in the portuguese league that seems to be regarded as a top top player by nearly all the fans of the "big 3", and god knows how hard it is for a player to be consensual between all three sets of fans. He works really hard for the team, great technique, extremely intellegent, good dribbler, more than enough pace, great passer... He'd fit in perfectly! As for weaknesses, I'd say that finishing and at times being a little shy at times are his Achilles heels. Don't think he'll ever be a good finisher, but a few screams from Conte would make him stop being shy in a hurry! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, I guess I was wrong about this not being true. As of right now the offer stands at 45M euros and a player (don't know who).

I can see a lot of people barely watched him outside the Euros. Saying that he's Swansea level is dead wrong. I think Conte would like him a lot. The rumour isn't truthful though.

Welcome Conte! Hopefully this means we're back to making our business early, unlike this summer. Would give me a lot more hope for next season...

2nd half was terrible. Back to the shitty tactics. We won't go through this way, I'm afraid.

Pleasantly surprised by this 1st half performance, much better than expected.

LOL forever our bitches ahahaha. Ez.

Tapatalk is still fucked fam.

Tbf I think we went in for both... Pogba's really really expensive though, and we all know what happened with Stones. The whole summer was poorly planned though. We started bidding way too late, unlike last season, and were left with very few quality options.

That's a fucking shit line-up. Let's see the football it produces. Giving Guus a pass because it's his first game, but it's pretty dissapointing. Hope we get that win.

Watch us somehow fuck this up fam.

The truth is he absolutely done when it comes to top flight football. His knee is shot. Jorge Mendes feels like he owes him (Falcao was basicaly forced into Monaco) and keeps getting him into top teams. And this came to me from a pretty reliable source.

He's useful for about 30 meters on the pitch. If he goes too far back, he's useless defending. If he goes too far forward he gets easily disposessed.

I saw people praising him in the match thread but I really didn't see a change, apart form slightly improved positioning. Technique and passing still shocking and he's clearly slower. I'd ship him out for a better option in january tbh.

Who's that guy wearing number 8 though.

The fact that Chelsea's 2 ahead and you're upset is quite telling.

Welcome and I wish you the best of luck. He's got a hell of a task in front of him, hopefully he'll manage it properly. All things considered I'd be happy with a top 10 finish and the FA Cup. No expectations for the CL.

Fam, for the sake of a cleaner discussion, please don't believe every single thing that comes from the media, good or bad. They're taking advantage of our situation and posting everything here definitely doesn't help. Let's not point fingers without certainty. #ainsleyharriottformod

As much as I love seeing him in a Chelsea shirt, he should go. Everyone turned on him without any concrete proof, he's doomed here. But the same people shout fickle from the top of their lungs when others are criticised... Chaos is well and truly installed at Chelsea.

The bed is made for a terrible season. The interim manager will be criticised left and right for the smallest of mistakes and most of the fanbase is against the players since Mourinho apparently can do no wrong. This is going to be a hell of a ride.
