I like Pellegrini, that's why I hope Conte is interested in him too. Oh I see. I forgot to put "not" there.

Hard times ahead for Qatar. We should watch closely the situation at PSG.

One of the worst weekends.

Embarrassing, it is like R.Madrid vs. Getafe.

I hope he is not under Conte's radar too.

Did you have a chance to watch Lorenzo Pellegrini? I am a little bit surprised not to see his name mentioned anywhere in this forum.

@Jason He is not going to United. You should use again his picture as profile photo.

That's a fact in team sports. People who ignore that fact even called Courtois overrated last season. No I am not saying he is another Willian. He's a better dribbler than Willian.

Some fans also said that Mourinho is not good for long term success. Again some fans were against selling De Bruyne. It does not mean fans know better, what is written here is just food for thought.

Players motivation/performance is affected by team performance and quality. Losing Kante affected very badly Leicester. Galacticos were similarly affected when they lost Makalele. Very fast players without much skill are only effective when they have open space. Mahrez is not like that. He has good technique, just needs to be trained to improve his decisions.

I don''t like this at all. I think he is Makalele, Davids, Kante type of player and with the right manager he can change destiny of a team. I hope either we sign or he doesn't come to England.

Last year Conte was at the Euros around this time. I think we'll have a much better transfer period this time.

Reaction of my Italian friends

We don't have to be pumped to beat the worst team in the league.

2nd season Juve's number 9 was Vucinic and they faced Drogba. We know how he is in knockout competitions, Gala scored 3 goals in two games, Drogba had two assists and one goal. Drogba's side had also beaten 4-1 Mourinho's Real one year before that. Still Juventus should have eliminated but Gala is known for such surprising results. A year ago people doubted Conte because he had no experience outside Italy, now they talk about his cup record after almost winning the double in his first season.

I would hate to see him playing for another PL club. If he leaves Leipzig he should be coming to Chelsea.

We won the most competitive league and cancelled our celebrations. Don't forget that while you are watching them celebrate and laugh.

Edit:Whatever

A shorter version Match preparation: I’ve never seen someone prepare a training session like Conte does. He’s absolutely obsessive: he wants every player to know everything about the opponents. When you get on the pitch to play the match, you are ready for anything. He works on every detail for hours and hours: even how players line up in the penalty area before corners. Half Time: We were winning at the end of the first half but we weren’t playing well. Antonio came into the dressing room and was absolutely livid. He demanded that of everyone of us, every player, shouted in front of everyone: “More.” What to expect from next season? Even after a victory, he thinks there is always something to improve, even after a win he will have a meeting with the squad and will immediately show the players how and why certain things will have to improve. He will not stop for a second, not even after a 3-0 win. He always wants a reason to surprise everyone, it is what drives him on.

I think Conte can help him perform like he did in the previous season. I also hope that we sign a better player but I won't be sorry if we get him for a reasonable price.

But heis1ofus.:D
