The Conte Thread

[akgw13 867]

Conte is definitely somewhat at fault but Ivanovic came out and basically said the team didnt believe in the tactics. if the team doesnt buy in it will never work. 

I am a very big fan of Conte and think he will succeed here in the long term. We have finally hit rock bottom and i think it is needed to hit the bottom to build back up. Everyone can see what a fraud Ivanovic is, Cahill seems like he wants to do well but just cant cut it. Our midfield/attack lack fluidity and our D is in shambles as we all know. 

The talk about firing Conte is absolute madness in my personal opinion, the team finished 10th last year and there hasn t been enough changes/reinforcements/Depth to make a full step forward also he has only been here for just over 2 months. It will take a lot longer for him to get the team the way he wants.

 

It sucks watching us stink up the field but I firmly believe that you need fail and hit the bottom to realize the depths of our problems. Every person from the board to the coach to the players has failed each other. Conte will fix this mess and if he doesn't we are in VERY big trouble, more than any singular manager can fix i dont care who they are.

 

These are just my opinions and i know they are a little late but i find people get way to emotional right after the games.

Conte has to take a lot of blame due to the fact taht he is the one that is selecting the players,who do not deliver good performances.
Why does he believe that Ivanovic,Cahill,Matic and Willian belong in our starting line up?I can accept that Cahill has to play because we do not have any other option left(Tomori could play though),but there is no excuse for giving Ivanovic,Matic and Willian so many fucking chances.

In which world is Matic a box to box player?He is useless in that position. What does he bring for our midfield apart from height?Let Chalobah or RLC(his best position is still no.8) play..

Ivanovic is an horrible defender and that is the third season in a row,where he is showing how bad he is. I do not know why Conte,Hiddink and Mourinho are selecting him.I really do not know. I respect Guardiola for having the balls to bench big characters like Ibrahimovic or Yaya Toure,when they do not deliver. If we had Pep as our coach,Ivanovic would have gone before the transfer window closed because Ivanovic has the worst right back technique of al time.

Willian is a good,sometimes very good player,but he is a shit right winger.He is useless there.He is a good option as a no.10,but he can´t play as a winger,so why does Conte not give Moses a chance,who did not play one bad match under Conte?Moses delivers,runs a lot and he actually can dribble with the ball and get past defenders.Willian is not the type to get past defenders when he is playing as a winger.

So if Conte fixes those 4 issues,we can reach Top 4 andthen improve the squad in the summer window.

My line up would be

-----------------------Costa

Hazard---Cesc-------Chalobah------Moses

----------------------Kante

Alonso---Luiz----Zouma--------Azpi

 

Chalobah has good defensive abilities and he can actually play great passes and he plays the ball much faster with more brain. Obviously,he needs some game time to improve and to get to his best form because he did not play one PL game and lacks match fitness,but he ha far more to offer that Matic.

If Conte now starts to give Oscar again chances,we have one more problem to solve....

Chelsea offered €50 mil for Koulibaly, offered €70 mil for Morata. There were reports about Chelsea offering over €40 mil for Nainggolan. Last year there were talks about major money offers for Pogba and there was of course the Stones saga (£40 mil offer).

The money is and has been there but Chelsea have problems closing deals. Either the clubs turn it down or the players don't want to join.

One thing I'd love the club to learn is to stop buying average and decent players. Only buy players who will improve the first XI and players who will improve the squad. Chelsea had Salah for example and ended up with Cuadrado in the end. Salah is a better player than Cuadrado. That's embarrassing. And he's definitely not the only example.

OMG

You will be asking for Matic and Willian return if Moses, Chalobah and RLC are playing Game after Game. Really weird some people are mad with the quality of the squad and ask for Moses to start games. LOL

Well if that's true that kind of confirms my view off Roman from earlier on and that his trigger happy nature is widly exaggerated.

I am in the opinion that managers need to earn time, even if the results aren't there immediately show signs of progress and positivity that will make the club believe that we will be rewarded by showing patience. That's were the likes of AVB and full time Robbie collapsed, because they shown nothing.

The funny thing is, out of all the average/interim managers we've had, Benitez was the only one who showed signs of progress. 

Hopefully Conte is backed by the board.

After the championship the team aged.

[robsblubot 3,205]

After carefully listening to Conte, I have to say that he's both 100% correct and his strategy, by stating that publicly, is very risky and at most will work once, and only once.

If he does reiterate that he will lose players, and with a squad as small as we have, he'd be in dire straights very quick. I don't share the belief that most youngsters can replace senior squad members without a drop, not necessarily in technique but in all other aspects of the game.

[BoyBlue96 990]

Good to read that Roman supports Conte as he should.

 

It's just been 5/6 games...come on this guy is the best manager out there FOR US. Done amazing things for Juventus and of course the Italy national team.

People who already want him out so he can be replaced by Diego Simeone...please just fuck off. Not that I wouldn't want Simeone, but that they want Conte out already makes my blood boil.
The team IS SHIT and it was wrong that Roman and Conte agreed to just give players like Iva and Cahill a second change. Huge mistake.
