cfcs most wanted 657 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Alot of this comes down to the formation, when we play the 3 at the back, we essentially have a useless 3rd defender, two wing backs who are essentially shit at attacking, yet still have to because no other width is available. When we play 3-4-3 we have 2 midfielders, usually Kante and Bakayoko who are both better defensively. This just kills the attack, everyone knows the striker can't do anything on his own, leaving just Hazard who should be kept calm. 4-3-3 might make are otherwise useless wingbacks being more defensive minded occasionally trying for an attack, which suits our team better than losing the ball every time. And this also allows us to have 4 players up top, almost ready to pounce on any attack. This won't just help our attack, but also help us defensively. A lot of matches that we have lost comes down to our inability to press teams, and in the end we have our goal subject to waves of attacks from smaller teams. With more attacking players in our squad up top, these teams would be wary of trying to press us and they would be defensive in their matches, I think a attacking 4 like Liverpool have would be amazing for our squad, considering that we are mostly pretty organised at the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styles 9,790 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Is he still here? 10 years ago, Roman would have sacked him after the game. How times have changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,578 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Conte was asked if Michy Batshuayi’s departure on loan to Borussia Dortmund affected his planning for the game?‘Now it would be very simple to find excuses and that’s not the right way. For sure we made a lot of mistakes together. When we win, we win together and when we lose, we lose together.Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sainttourist 68 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I blame Conte for not thinking ahead and bringing Cudicini, us assistant, instead of Drogba, Zola etc. Would had three attacking option before the game. Negative manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Football is all about cliches and soundbites and the one that's used about Chelsea the most is it's a soap opera. Well to be honest it is and always has been going back to the 60's when Tommy Docherty sent home most of the team for sneaking out to a nightclub. We don't do stability never have done never will do.

Special Juan 28,187 Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 His over 'achieving' comments are just a smack in the face with a wet fish to the board. He's pushing and pushing and it will come to a head soon, they won't tolerate these words much longer and with him apparently walking a fine line for weeks it wouldn't surprise me if the hunt for a new coach started as early as 10PM last night. I love Conte but hes been sold down the river, these fuckers running the show are absolute control freaks and there in lies the problem. There is no gel or bond between him and the board, the relationship is finished. He hasn't helped the situation with his latest comments but come on. He's speaking in riddles now that we all understand, you don't need to be a genius to work it out. Is he out of order? Yes, it should of been discussed behind closed doors, but how can you discuss something and someone when you have got no respect coming back the other way, he knows he's gone whether it be now or end of the season and he's thought "Fuck it" The club is rotten and it starts at the top. laura90 and drog.ba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,993 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Man, I really really like Conte and hope he somehow stays past the summer. Gets us a top 4 finish and is then given adequate funds to get a few more in. We have to break this cycle of sacking great managers when they hit a rough patch. Unless it gets very bad like Mourinho at the end I hope we stick with him. But the way he's talking I fear he's teetering on the edge. Said it before but Tuchel is my #1 choice if Conte does go. Know he has flaws but I think he'd be great. DDA and FabHazard 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,187 Posted February 1, 2018 Author Share Posted February 1, 2018 Nothing will change, you could bring in Pep, but the board and upstairs frauds are still there, still controlling every single movement. Your always going to get some gullible fucker, but from the outside looking in you wouldn't come near this job if you had anything about you. Like players, we will become a lesser and lesser attraction from managers now. El P. and bigbluewillie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drog.ba 239 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 The club obviously want a yes man, who will accept every situation thrown at them. Problem is this kind of manager won't bring the success the club want. Either the club back the manager more with his own players, or accept less success. Of those potential replacements only Allegri, and possibly Simeone are close to Conte's level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever happens happens I'm going anyway. The fact as soon as we hit bad form media start linking us to other managers shows the way we've become.

Duppy Conqueror 1,557 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 we need an influx of 3 or 4 good signings..that only seems to happen now in the summer when a new head coach arrives. it`s sad..but it is what it is. crazy how we have won the PL 5 times since Wenger last won it aswell as European trophies that he has never and he`s outlasted all of them combined. we sack way too early,they sack way too late..the club make it impossible for our head coaches to succeed once the novelty of one season has worn off. they make it impossible to grow from within because they want instant success and sack whenever a non-championship season occurs. they add too much tension for coaches and players to perform under.Fergies reign would have never happened for us or Cloughies with Forest..we won the league twice since any of the Manchester clubs have and yet less than a year from winning the league we have fallen behind them and it`s looking like it will be a few years until we get ahead of them again if we do atall. there`s a limit to how many great Head Coaches are out there and some may just not want to up root their lives for 18 months to 2 years with us.

FabHazard 655 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 This is my opinion..Yes Conte has his faults... Look at that squad most of them are average players who are playing above their level..I agree with his opinion that we must be realistic..If we are in top 4 at end of the season that is successful I have never seen a more honest manager than conte...He speaks what he has in his heart...English is not his native language... So some of his words are lost in the translation..Even in yesterday's conference he did not give any excuses when many of us are expecting it..I just hope he rejuvenates this team and get us into the winning mood..I want us to back him as long as he stays El P., zekinjo, Barbara and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
