I would be more disappointed if fans boo Conte. He made mark here unlike Lukaku. But fans already booed biggest legend Mourinho and called him Judas so wouldn't be surprised. 

If he hadnt sued the pants off of the club id agree and he was to balme for costa leaving

Chelsea finally have a manager that doesn’t allow player power to dominate the club...

Nothing ive seen indicates that. He's just saving face and getting himself even more fines.

Costa started bitching in January about not going to China for crazy salary. Conte handled it in best possible way. Acted like he forgot it, used him for the rest of the season in title race and told him to fuck off in the summer. Marina did her thing by ripping Atletico.

@Pizy, you got your wish...SIX minutes of it!

 

I've never seen such a PR exercise in all my life and I've spent the last year laughing at Arsenal for the lengths they go to for Arteta.

Why wouldn't you? In 2nd season he still delivered Fa Cup and in the league he won more points than Lampard and Lampard/Tuchel. Let's remember only good things. 

Courtois won both those trophies plus an additional PL and league cup.

Does the same apply to him?

No. But Conte did not do much wrong. He just couldn't hide frustration because he was in environment that was not able to match his ambition. He was the biggest victim in second season. 

If that City game was worst thing people remember that's not bad. I'm even with Tuchel frustrated at times with his pragmatism. Are we going to boo him in a couple of years when he comes with other team? 

Mourinho was booed because he signed for United and called Judas. In these times it's expected every top manager to go to PL rival because PL is the best. And we change managers often. 

Lampard went to City and was not really successful manager, are we going to boo him?

Showing frustration is fine, chucking in the towel however is unforgivable. 

His little paddy cost us top four and indirectly started Liverpool's dominance.

Even if that happened (which I'm very doubtful about as still to this day the only witness is Jose) it was one fan and he threw the entire fanbase under the bus for it.

But one thing I will give him, atleast he waited until he was actually at another club before he threw the support we gave him back in our faces.

I know people get upset when current, or even former, players say that XYZ are a bigger club than us but it never bothers me. I've loved this club for all but the first six years of my life. I bring the passion, I want players to bring the talent and the effort. I don't need them to lie to me and it certainly doesn't bother me if they tell the truth. Unless I get a negative covid result tomorrow I won't be there but I hope fans either get behind Rom or stay quiet. We don't need to keep putting on an off the pitch show for the world. We've entertained the football public enough this past week. Let the circus move on.

If Conte gets cheered after the way he behaved (especially by any fan who went to that game at The Ethiad) then that makes them doormats in my book.

That  entire game at the Etihad became a meme in my eyes.

Conte's prematch comments about having to 'suffer'..

Fabregas standing like a zombie in front of an attacking City player.

Nauseating stuff. I'm half convinced that this was the game that made Hazard 100% convinced that he needed to move.

Line should be drawn under this for now.

I mentioned previously actions will speak louder than words. I'm hoping this humbles Lukaku but serves as additional motivation for him to make an impact here.

Scoring goals and helping us win games is what we need.

All for pragmatism in situations like these, so will agree.

Infuriating stuff and I feel this will need revisiting in the summer, but if Tuchel himself has decided to stick with Lukaku, then why should us fans think any different.?

Never made such a 180 turn as I did that day.

Any other time I've veered towards wanting a manager out it's been a slow burn over months. Before that game I was very much on the train of give him a season to redime himself, that game turned me with no going back.

The guy is fake as it comes, you can tell from the answers everything was practiced beforehand.

Anyways he will be here at least for the shorterm and hopefully get rid of him in the summer. Could be worse still, we have only one of these lazy entitled players in our squad, the report about United squad this morning would be much harder to deal with, so I think we're lucky our situation isn't as bad.

What's the deal with United squad?

In other words. Ronaldo coming in with demands to actually win has made a bunch of players getting an easy ride for underachieving for so long feel uncomfortable and out of their depth.

It's early days but with Rangnick struggling right now, it's kinda scary that the club have easily hired him last January.
