Special Juan

Sorry I couldn't find the sarcasm button on my keyboard.

I've gone the other way, this is cracking me up

Big noises surfacing that we have bid £35M for him.

Well after watching the press conference against my better judgement it is now fully clearly to me that Conte is done with the club. He looked ill, he looked broken and he sounded completely disillusioned. The board have single handedly drained every ounce of charisma and zest the bloke had, and other fans, the media and people you speak to have no idea why we are so fucked off and why our manager is too. It's actually got to the point where I actually feel more for Conte than the club itself based on the whole way he's been treated and the way they have handled the transfer business in the last few years. People can tell you there isn't anything wrong, their fooling themselves. There is a lot wrong right now at this football club, a lot. I don't know what direction we are going in, the spine has gone from the team, something we were noted for over the years and we do not have leaders in the dressing room anymore. It's been allowed to get to this because of a short term outlook, the quick fixes and the penny pinching. City are now paying the asking prices, the big wages and probably going to be very dominant for the next few years, we cant afford to follow the copyright set by Arsenal, were we allow ourselves to fall into the background, just saunter along and win fuck all. And believe me this is very realistic and possible, and quite close to happening than people actually think. Every window we are missing out on more and more and more targets, this then has the knock on effect it has with Conte we are seeing now. We are also seeing something now that we haven't seen for a while, teams like Liverpool are starting to up their game in terms of big signings...Van Dijk is in, Naby Keita is about to join they are really pulling up their socks. Other teams are starting to do big business, big players for big money. My fear is we are starting to drowned, the tide of other teams is starting to come in. We aren't identifying targets and we aren't nailing them, other teams are. This club needs to be very careful, we are walking a fine line because other clubs around us are spending and moving forward, and right now we are stagnating and not dining at the top table, in fact, and I have said this before we are not a big pull anymore. The Andy Carroll thing isn't made up media shite, we are actually chasing him, I mean what the fuck is this all about, even Arsenal are chasing Aubameyang and Sanchez looks like he's about to join United. It's embarrassing what's happening right now, and I actually think the board are so focused on this new stadium everything else around them is being shoved away. We need to be very careful.

It's been ages since I had my face in a bush...the wife just isn't the same anymore

I agree with you, but once again the fail safe switch is flicked and another 'regular' gets the nod ahead of him.

I'm excited now, no Barkley and Bat boy up front. In other news, Hudson Odoi won't play apparently Conte saying he needs to make the next step before playing in the first team.

"That's it from Antonio Conte, you can read more, including his thoughts on Alvaro Morata on the official website soon" Glad it wasn't me giving my opinion

Apparently it's to do with him not being registered for the first match in the cup tie you can't be eligible for the replay. He wasn't registered.

Pointless watching it, same things asked and same things said.

"I don't know I don't think so" Make ya fucking mind up

Great, No Barkley tomorrow, apparently didn't sign in time.

I want to be really anger but I have given up.

Like most of us he's probably hoping if he ignores them they will go away.

Right now, and I wouldn't put it past the board, it sounds like Batman is off on loan and we are no nearer to a second choice striker. Morata first choice and Hazard back up/false 9

Sanchez wouldn't be a panic buy, a panic buy is the likes of Zappacosta and Drinkwater. Sanchez is still an elite footballer, he will give you 3-4 seasons of pure quality football and he is a complete game changer, we only have one player in our team right now who that applies too. Players of the ability of Sanchez are ten a penny now a days, and whilst the wages are high the fee isn't so it counter acts itself. People are looking too closely at the age, it's a number, not only that but who is available on the market now, and I'm talking now because it's relevant to this window, that can come into not just CFC, but any club and be THAT outstanding player? The answer is nobody. I don't think it will happen, but I think you have to be pretty naive to think he cant make a difference wherever he goes, because he is that good.

Conte won't give anything anyway, never does.

All steered and engineered by agents, the biggest cash cows in football that dictate where the client goes.

Just found out it's on BBC, looking forward to this. Hopefully it catapults us with a few goals and kicks us on. Really excited to see how Barkley does.

Send Willian to Arsenal.

Didn't watch the game, despise United. Saw the goals on SKY this morning and their wank fest over Pogba.....I also saw a Tweet salivating saying his 90M now looks a bargain, well I have some news for you.....N'Golo Kante.

I could see us paying it.

Fuck me these pages have moved faster than Bakayoko.

More chance of me getting a tit wank off Kim Kardashian

Late, late and late.....Typical us, we won't get him because it's bullshit and we won't pay the poke he wants or his agent.
