Belgiannutt 3,201 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 7 minutes ago, Mana said: I'm sure if it weren't for Salah, Pool wouldn't be in the CL final, nor made 4th place. They relied on him. KDB you may have a case, but City wouldn't have dominated the league like they have, if they didn't have KDB. KDB consistent passing and attack is why KDB is the 2nd best player in the PL. They had dips, but that's dips. If Hazard had small dips, I won't be having a go at Hazard. The problem was he had a drop of performance since 2018, and it remained that way until the end of the season. Ofcourse Salah and KDB played a big part in their teams succes and performance this season but it wasn't just them though. Their entire team performed well. It wasn't just them that performed. That's the thing Hazard's dips and KDB and Salah's dips are similar but KDB and Salah's teams kept performing so it wasn't that noticeable. They kept getting into dangerous areas even when they weren't in form because other players were carrying the attack. Once Hazard's form drops we aren't getting into dangerous areas anymore. This is a team sport. Individual performances effect team performance while team performance also effects individual performances ( a player will find it more difficult to play well when his entire team is playing poorly. Similarly if his team is playing well he'll still get opportunities to score and assist even when that player is in poor form). Also side note, think you're exaggerrating Hazard's drop in form. He was still performing well in january and february(7 goals and 3 assists in those 2 months.) He had a poor march and halfway through april. Then he performed well again (not saying he was super form but he was good) till the last game against Newcastle where pretty much the entire team was shit.

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Tuchel took charge at Paris, Mancini at the Italian NT, Allegri is going to stay at Juventus for at least another season and Napoli have Ancelotti lined up should Sarri leave. It's the jobs Conte's been linked to for the past months and frankly, watching his last interviews, it gives me the feeling that the situation has completely changed now - He moaned all season and I had the feeling he does not want to be here anymore, but now it seems he looks out of alternatives (no top clubs in need of a new manager) and he'd be willing to stay, but frankly I have no idea what the board thinks of him anymore. Maybe an FA Cup triumph could save his job. Personally I'm advocating for his stay if it means we're not getting the likes of Luis Enrique. But with two conditions - a total change in attitude and tactics. For all the flaws in this squad, he's been at fault also for this bad season because of his constant moaning. Disrupted the atmosphere for the start of the season and he's looked a shadow of his former self. Also a change in tactics is needed. This five at the back shite is outdated and totally not fitted for a big club. kellzfresh, Sideshow Luiz, Johnnyeye and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Partridge 1,124 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 League title in 1st season FA Cup in 2nd Doesn’t sound too bad but I personally don’t want to watch another season of this poor excuse for football. His subs are often too late and his tactics are ugly. The board didn’t back him but I can’t see how this team would be playing any different. The squad needs huge changes and I don’t think his style of play should warrant huge investment. I personally would rather someone else come in who plays exciting football and not this dinosaur style of play. Invest in a new philosophy Even Hazard just had a dig at our boring play DYC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 He gets to leave on a high. But it's really time to go. Chels need to go into a different direction, man. This defensive and chaotic shit, hoping for a miracle moment up top is so tired. And it scares away quality players. The Chels and Amblève. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 That was some shockingly defensive stuff even by his standards. Lets be honest any half decent coach could have done what he's done today. It doesn't take anything special to nick a goal and defend for 75 mins. Time to go.

Today was understandable but your right we need a new direction. Good way to leave on a high now we can remember his good times rather than the last few months.

Pizy 18,992 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Almost universal thinking amongst the journo's that he's off. Think in the end it's comments from our players like Hazard today that will do him in. I'm sure quite a few of them are sick of setting up defensively and playing like a small team.

The stupid thing in all of this is the journalists framing Conte's inevitable departure as another case of Roman sacking the manager because he didn't meet expectations, when Conte has spent pretty much the entire season begging to be sacked. Roman being a trigger happy owner when it comes to sacking managers is one of the stupidest myths ever. Supermonkey92 and !Hazard! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
