There are players who actually deserve such comments. This and other reasons have been explained over and over in the last pages.

We can use Hazard as CAM and until Jose made those comments there was not much reaction.

Nothing wrong, you guys have last season's best players of Premiere League and Bundesliga, currently third national team in Fifa ranking. Of course some Brazilian, Spanish and Italian fans will be jealous and will sound salty. If this interview actually happened Musonda just gave them an opportunity to attack all Belgian players.

Are the only options we have Brendan and Jose?

That would sell more.

They should if they are actually behind the manager.

When you have a strong bench rotating players does not mean taking your foot of the pedal.

Defender Tim Hoogland, who Klopp signed for Mainz back in 2007, remembers the fundamental rule of working for Klopp: “I think this is one of the important things you have to know about him. The whole team has to run 120 km (74.5 miles) collectively every game. 120km minimum." http://www.fourfourtwo.com/sg/features/jurgen-klopp-what-its-really-working-him-those-whove-done-it#:a3MXkmHAZt_CnA

Belgian fans can defend Belgian players, Brazilian fans can defend Brazilian players in the team, that is fine as they are not professionals who got paid from Chelsea. When the manager favors a Gestifute player because he is a good friend of Jorge Mendes, there is a problem for Chelsea FC. It is not our job to revive the careers of Gestifute players, it is disgraceful and unethical.

Juventus and Bayern board think differently obviously. These are the clubs who spent much more wisely than us btw. Of course not every Ballon D'or winner would become a great football director, but these players were not just talented, but also hardworking leaders/directors on the pitch and the teams (national and club) they led were successful both in domestic and international competitions.

Unless they change the board and Emonolo I don't think changing the managers will make any difference in the long run tbh. In Spain or in Italy directors get same if not more blame when the results are bad. Who the fuck is Emenalo and why is he in charge? Director at Bayern: Matthias Sammer, Ballon D'or Winner, champion of Bundesliga both as a player and a manager. Director at Juventus: Nedved, former captain of Czech national team and Ballon D'or Winner. Real and Barca also use their former players as directors and also get advice from people like Sacchi. Our board and director have no idea what goes on in and outside the pitch compared to the teams that we are competing with in Europe.

I wrote this also in Matic's thread. Hazard, Matic, Fabreagas are exhausted. Consistently succesfull teams like Bayern, Juve, Barcelona do not use their midfielders like we do. Just compare how many minutes their midfielders played last season compared to ours and they play in less competitive leagues. Terry and Ivanovic similarly played more than any defender last season.

Muller: "People should accept that wages will always play a role in a player's decision-making. Of course, the wages that are being paid in the Premier League are very tempting." http://www.foxsports.com/soccer/story/muller-suggests-money-could-lure-him-to-the-premier-league-101115

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has claimed that he looks at a player’s star sign before signing them, and says that he likes Geminis as they are aggressive and intense. http://www.espnfc.us/spanish-primera-divisi%C3%A3%C2%B3n/story/1764420/atletico-madrid-coach-diego-simeone-a-believer-in-horoscopes

Benitez also signed for Liverpool as hot shit after winning La Liga two times and reaching to CL final with Valencia. I am glad that Klopp is not going to work for other London or Manchester clubs. Right now he thinks his English is not perfect. Soon he will realize that he is actually too good for that place. Liverpool fans share his mentality in a way. If the manager is above their level, they bring him down to their level.

I think you don't know much about the Agnelli family. They don't hesitate pulling the trigger at all as you see in the link I posted. They are as ruthless as any other rich owner you mentioned. The difference is that they understand football better than our board. I think Klopp will have trouble now as he has to work with the Liverpool board who seem clueless compared to the people he used to work with. You compared Allegri's record to Conte's, but last year they did not just change their manager they also transferred a striker who steps up in important games. That's why I mentioned Morata. I already wrote that I agree Conte should have done better with the squad he had.

None of the consistently successful teams in Europe use their midfielders like we do, and they are in less competitive leagues. Check out who played more than any player among Chelsea, Barca, Real, Bayern and Juventus midfielders last season. Matic spent freaking 3122 minutes on the pitch tackling, pushing opponents, covering his teammates mistakes, on average he used run 11.5 km each game last year. Hazard played for 3373 minutes. We should have improved our midfield significantly this year if our goal is actually consistency and stability.

From http://www.theguardian.com/football/2001/jun/18/europeanfootball.sport Second place is definitely not good enough for Juventus. Sometimes first place doesn't even cut it. Juve announced that they had sacked Carlo Ancelotti at half-time during their 2-1 win over Atalanta on Sunday. Never mind that he had recently signed a two-year extension to his contract. Never mind that it was their 11th game without defeat.

They are actually. Just check out how frequently they used to change managers before Conte. I agree that he has not been successful in CL, but Morata who joined to Juve after Conte left made a huge difference. In CL he scored consecutively in five or six matches now. When he doesn't play Juve struggles in the league too. I did not say he is the perfect coach btw.. Among the options we have he is the best in my opinion. Carlo as football director, Conte as coach would be the perfect combination actually.

A German and a Brit discussing austerity vs. stimulus as they always do.

To be successful in England a manager must know how to give hairdryer treatment. Del Bosque is not that sort of manager and if fans think Mourinho is the best manager for a southwest London club Low must be the worst. No one wants to see him picking his nose at Stamford Bridge. Yes it is not a big achievement winning the league with Juventus but so is winning the Scottish league with Rangers, Bundesliga with Bayern. Conte cares about diet like Wenger, builds a squad and yells at players like Ferguson, knows the psychology of top players and rich owners like Carlo. Among the options we have Conte is the best.

I would love to see Conte as Chelsea manager. He can build a squad for consistent success, knows how to motivate players. He would not have any problems working with the board. He is the perfect coach for us.

Guardiola already said he likes the atmosphere at Old Trafford. They would probably go for him. Tottenham would like to hire Mourinho imo. He would increase their popularity in two years.

That's why he used to pick Arbeloa and Coentrao at Real back then. After he left they did not play much and Real won the Champions League with Carvajal and Marcelo.

Don't forget that you are talking about Liverpool. Di Canio, Poyet or Allerdayce are more likely to go there than Carlo or Klopp imo.
