This is for me is our major problem, every game I have no confident that we are going to score. Our attack look and feel predictable.

Watching spurs who play the same 343, their offensive level is like on different level. 

You hit the nail. Spurs are somewhere else and if it wasn't for Wembley being their home stadium, they would be out of reach. Which makes me seriously think the top 4 is far away from us, despite the fact we are in it.

We have no midfield (I'm including wing-backs here) and this game proves it. This is probably why Conte wanted a target man, so we can bypass our midfield altogether.

We have replacement for cahill but who is going to replace baka ?

Barkley. If we play with 3 in midfield then it has to be Cesc, Kante, and Barkley.

[Beigl 1,387]

I don´t know what to say. Why does Conte play Bakayoko every time? Why do players like Alonso or Zappacosta play for a club like Chelsea? 

At this rate i would be content with 5th place. I hope our board finally reacts in the summer and stops buying donkeys, because we are in real trouble.

I don't feel confident till were least 3-0 up we're gana win either. Something about our defence that doesn't fill with confidence these days.

Yeah fuck the guy for getting binned for poor Cahill. 

Has nothing to do with it??? Lets not forget that Cahill was really good that season as well.

Drinkwater, Ampadu or even Barkley. I expect Conte to revert back to 3-5-2 against Watford, so Kante along with two of them would be an improvement.

Conte needs to stop playing 2 defensive minded players in the middle...Kante and bakayoko do not have the ability to play over the top balls like fabregas....We really could have exploited bournemouth's high line...

This would hurt my soul.

I would go even further. I think Conte needs to stop playing 3 at the back. You have 3 at the back, then Kante and Bakayoko and two average wing backs = 8 (+Tibo) defensive or weak players. How is that going to excite us?

[Starman60 1,343]

Why why why does Conte persevere with that donkey Bakayoko. The guy is clearly not capable of playing Premiership football at present. Too slow, sloppy passing and was eased off the ball way to easily for the second goal. Offers the team absolutely nothing, either defensively or attacking.. We cant afford passengers on the team and he clearly is one.

Conte, I love you. It must be really hard for you to work under this conditions. Stay strong, we believe in you.

Hudson odoi appearance is far better than anything both Batshuayi and Pedro has done this season...

Needs must, funny thing is i can see that causing Barca problems.

[Pizy 18,368]

Agree that Baka needs to sit for a while.  We also need Willian back as well. Hopefully by the weekend.

Hmm, I'll need to actually see that to believe it.

Can someone explain to me what is the board/Conte vision here?

They complain we dont have depth. We need depth so we can rely on other players and rest first choices. 

BUT, correct me if Im wrong, Conte still plays same players week in week out. Why? Because we dont have reliable players on the bench FFS. 

The whole point of having depth is so we can rotate and keep the quality on similar level, but now we actualy do have the depth, those players are absolutely shite. 

I cant believe our board is buying the depth just so we can have players on bench. But these players are terrible, no wonder Conte keeps playing starters over and over. Because when we play our "depth", we play incredibly shit. 

Drinkwater, Bakayoko, Cahill, Zappacosta,...they are all here to add good bench options when we need to rotate, but they are terrible players. No wonder Conte doesnt want to rotate. 

And now we added Barkley, Emerson and Giroud to the mix, I dont have any good feeling about either to be honest. Barkley doesnt fit the formation, Giroud is Giroud and Emerson had awful injury, who knows when will he bit fit physicaly and mentaly to start for us and become important member. 

We should be signing grade A players, who would bench the likes of Alonso, Bakayoko, Pedro; instead we are buying lesser! players for bench and still play underperforming players. 

We splashed shitload of cash for absolutely average players. 

When we needed to score today, or in any other game this season, you can see how useless our players are. They cant do shit, cant dribble, cant pass, cant keep possesion, cant press, cant put pressure to score the goal...apart from two or three players who do their job. 

Then you have our might depth on bench, with zero quality again. City has better bench than we have starting 11 for fuck sake, yet the board doesnt change anything. 

Even if we are out of league and have slim chances in CL, we still need to finish strong in PL and we need to reinforce team anyway for next season. We should be in for world class striker, winger or wingback this january and yet the board did jackshit. 

There should be huge changes in summer, but there probably wont be. 

The day Barkley, Emerson or Giroud perform brilliantly I will eat my words, but until then we can easily say this was another underpeforming window and we bought bunch of average or injured players again. 

And people are actualy happy with Giroud haha. Its nice to joke he will score the winner against Barcelona, but then comes the harsh reality. 

We fell so far. If Eden leaves in summer, we are fucked.
