Plus and minuses of a dictator I'm afraid..... Conte will have had enough by Christmas and it all starts again. The revolving door is starting to spin.....

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 He's not going to last the season, is he? I could see him walking, to be honest. The fact he signed a new deal without committing any further time to the club, suggests both parties want to keep their options open. Obviously Conte is not the yes-man who answers to Emenalo that the board want. Anyone up for Hiddink Round 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Thing is who would take the risk and want to replace him? Be such a under pressure job with little players to work with and seeing the fact your unlikey to get the players you need to strengthen. So much potential and yet again...off he'll go...

If you're a young manager, you would take the risk at Chelsea. Worst thing that could happen is you'll be sacked in a few months and a nice payout (e.g. Villas-Boas).

Tomo 21,751 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 If he has behaved the way is being reported then he deserves his share of the flak for the the current situation. Klopp and Poch have been "screwed over" by their clubs board aswell but you don't see them going around behaving like school kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlesJuve 264 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Seeing yesterday post conference I believe Conte understands that the market is over. He'll have to do another miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Conte did great last season, but Im afraid he is a one trick manager. It seems he relies on 3CB system. Yesterday the team was playing at home against relegation bound Burnley. One CB received red. He replaced one attacking player with another CB. Then besideds the back 3 or 5, we had a mid with Fabregas and Kante plus Willian and Batshuay. The 2nd half was entertaining due to teams fight spirit, bu the final minutes aside, the team never kept Burnley under pressure. We should discuss tatics and football instead of silly talk about the board lacking ambition. Anyone who think the team need to spend more 200m to dont get embarrassed by Burnley should stop writing stuff about football.
