Share Posted February 11, 2018 7 minutes ago, The Chels said: Antonio Conte: "There is nobody better than me at improving players but I'm a disaster at getting clubs to spend" Conte and Mourinho love to do their talking off the pitch. Shame about what their teams are doing on it, eh. Well this has now come to a point where I wish he would just shut up. With things like these it's difficult not to think that he wants the sack. He's basically calling the board and the players shit while bigging up himself. Last season he was different, much humbler, now it looks like he just doesn't give a fuck anymore. I can't imagine it rubbing off any positive mood to the squad, especially what he said there about "not smiling while working hard". He's like Rihanna with all this work talk. kellzfresh, Fernando, Tomo and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Unbelievable the difference between current Conte and past-season Conte. At this point I don't know whats the difference between Conte's and Mourinho's negative aspects. At least Mourinho had a past story, while Conte is around for only one season and half. Conte must shut up and do his job. A great coach is the one who can turn things around when the team is getting bad result. If a team collapses when the first bad results appear the manager is not doing a great job. Right now the team is playing worse from game to game. This is the moment Conte must show what he is about, specially in the game against Barcelona. I really hope at least we can give them a game and avoid an Arsenalesque demolition.

To be fair, this is the real Conte. Used to be combative figure when he was back in Italy. His other quotes, though, were even worse. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/feb/10/antonio-conte-chelsea Quote “You continue to work with a manager or coach not because of what he achieves in one season but because you trust in him,” he said. “Then you build something with him. “But it doesn’t mean you have to win something, because that’s not simple. Not easy. Especially in England. The way I look at it, you can win [a trophy] but, at the same time, the club might not be happy to stay with you. In that case, [they might consider] it’s right to send the coach away. At the same time, you can trust in a coach and his work and continue with him even if you don’t win, and try and build something important. “There are two ways. There is a stupid way and an intelligent way. This is my opinion. At the same time, I have great respect for everyone’s opinion. If the club decides to send me away, I don’t know when, it’ll be because they’re not happy with my work. As you know very well, my contract expires in 2019. From my point of view, there is the will to stay and continue to work for this club.” Also, in that same article, I don't get how he can moan about the media creating speculations, negative vibes around the club when he's been feeding them with negative stuff to write about on a weekly basis.

Popular Post! El P. 1,354 Posted February 12, 2018 Popular Post! Share Posted February 12, 2018 Conte is maybe not doing us favor in this moment in speaking the harsh truth all of the time, but long term that's exactly what this club needs. Someone important to say that this team is not good enough and that he made them better, and that our board is not doing good job. Truth is important.

Popular Post! Barbara 15,149 Posted February 12, 2018 Popular Post! Share Posted February 12, 2018 The truth hurts people Dozens of you said many times that Conte brought the best out of many average players we have, that we overachieved and outperformed and when he says that he's able to do that he's lacking *false* modesty and humbleness *rolls eyes*Why can't someone admit what they are good at?

Were there vocal support for Ancelotti, Scolari, AVB? Conte even has his own banner at the Bridge! Don't think even Mourinho had one in the past?

If we never won the CL and FA cup that year RDM came in, people would probably have called for his head too. I think people have seen now that the club has a big chunk of blame to take for not only how we’ve been this season but also in previous seasons gone by, like Jose’s last year, although he was always going to get sacked things were worse then than they have been this season imo but could habe been easy avoided with a few better signings to keep first 11 and squad more competitive.
