bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Well it looks like he won't be sacked certainly not til the end of season, as we're still in 2 cup competitions and a chance of a top four finish.......more chance of me being elected pope Then I think they will either sack him or leave by mutual consent.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 For me, the only reason he hasn't been sacked is they are lining up his replacement. Henrique, Superblue and Fernando 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this, I think they'll have plans in place for next season and believed they could get by until the end of the season with Conte. After the last week or so, they will want to accelerate those plans and that doesn't happen over night (certainly not with this board).

bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 The only thing is his favour is he hasn't got the dreaded "Assurances from the board his position is safe" they usually get the sack next day Henrique 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zekinjo 449 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Maybe Roman won’t sack him because he can’t find any decent replacement. Listening to rumors in last 24h everyone is turning their phones off when Chelsea FC calls. DDA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Sky Sports reporting he will remain, and the club is not seeking replacements. Pretty sad if true. Season is doomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireBlue 3,277 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Maybe just maybe this is a blessing in disguise conte wanted the board to publicly back him and that appears to have happend. Hopefully this can be a turning point and conte shows some desire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The decision to introduce the back 3 was right last seaso and now it is the right time to reverse it, as people know how to deal with it: peck the wingbacks back to and get behind the midfield in numbers than there will be loads of space due to cahill's backing off and lack of pace as well as Bakayokos lack of positional intelligence, late tackling, defensive workroate or simply not being fit to play football at any level. We got way too many defenders on the field and still our centre is weak. Conte showed balls introdocing the back 3 as first manager in England, now he needs to have the balls to introduce a new system. Watford and Bournemouth dominated us because they found us out. They stopped the supply to hazard or stopped him controlling the ball, pressurized the wingbacks attacking with two players on one side, gave Bakayoko no time to breath and played balls behind cahill. Even the shittiest teams can mimic that and unless we drastically change formation and at least get bakayoko and cahill out of the team there is nothing we can do about it.

Hazard is not really perfectly utilised in that system. but i could imagine leon bailey in that role Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Conte looks so uncharacteristic this season. Back in juve,italy and even last season at cfc, he made some bold decisions, there was lot of passion, desire, character. Where is all that this season? It cant be just on Conte, he managed to keep Juve in motivated shape for few years. I believe that the players are the main problem here, same happened under Mou when they decided to stop playing and season later we win title with almost same squad. Perfect example is probably Willian who hinted at move if he doesnt play. Hell, he is simply not good enough to be playing in first 11, and he demands more play time or threatening he will leave? I can imagine the rest being the same bunch, but with difference that Eden, Tibo, Kante, Azpi, Christensen actualy deserve to play because they are good. On other hand, I dont understand Conte decision to keep playing Eden upfront (instead of Pedro or now Giroud) and Cahill when we have other defenders available.
