Italian media - Conte unhappy with Chelsea board, may quit club

English media - Conte will stay, club working on signing players

Who to even believe?

I don't think we have seen much news about Chelsea working on singing players from RELIABLE English media.

Also, even if we are working on Lukaku and it's most likely a done deal, but Conte wants Morata...

[Pizy 18,368]

If it's true, I wonder which scenario it is that's pissing him off.

1) That we aren't signing players in general

2) That we aren't signing them fast enough for his liking

3) That we won't give him his targets

4) He's seeing players he wanted go to other clubs

Think I'm gonna go with a bit of #'s 2 and 3. Those are the most believable for our board.

That briefing from Chelsea was quick.

I don't believe it, but if it ends up being true, I can't think of a time I'd be more mad at the club.

Well, they are definitely not the most bullshit-news reporters out there.

We'll see what happens. Could be from camp-Conte pushing the club.

Indeed. Di Marzio are a legit source. 

 

 

this is not looking good. 

Are you guys surprised?

It's already mid June and even Everton are doing business and we nothing!

Funny how everyone was saying Bakayoko is supposed to be a Conte signing when everything suggests Conte doesn't really want him. He's probably sick of Emenalo.

It's is kinda funny seeing other clubs doing a bunch of business already. A club like Everton spent over £50m today alone and are apparently close to another signing or two. City have made two first XI signings, Arsenal have made one, United have made one and are closing in on Morata.

Only reason I'm not worried is that neither ourselves nor our closest rival last season in Spuds have signed anyone. That shows you that it's not panic time yet. If in a month from now we haven't I'll be shitting it.

To be fair I think they are just spending Lukaku's money... The problem is Conte wanted Morata, not Lukaku. And that's where the problems start.

Think he wants both.

This man has balls, isn't he. Being ruthless with one of the most ruthless board around. Wonder what happened next, but he definitely getting at them. First Costa, now this. He wants the power, that it, I think.

[Unionjack 7,531]

Got more than a whif of the Emenalo power play about it again.

He knows hes fitted tight up Romans arse and hes stamping his 'authority'

I'm sorry if I upset anyone who likes him but he reminds me of a snidey bacjstabber who arsehole creeps to anyone.

He should fuck off. But not much chance of that eh.

IF this comes down to a powerplay and the Don says I'm outta here then we got that revolving managers door again,

Lets just hope its a load of bollox!

about as close to bang on as any journo out there. Not 100% but definitely 70.

The Daily Mirror originally reported this...

[whats happening 1,525]

I remember when the club came and supported Mourinho and the few weeks later he was gone.

The club needs to provide the support with action not just words. 

[Pizy 18,368]

Tbf, the club are hardly going to come out and say it's all true. 

You know what would calm things down? Announcing a player within the next week and extensions to the contracts of Hazard, Tibo, and Conte himself.
