As much as I would blame Conte for his team selection and his stubbornness to stick to a formation which the PL teams have clearly figured out. The board is every bit responsible for this debacle.

This club as become a big joke, starting with an incompetent board and no wonder other fans mock us for the way managers are treated like shit. I really liked Conte and his passion, but that has been destroyed by fucking primmadonas playing for this club and a shit board, this is how we reward and back a manager that took us from 10th to Champions.

Jase 43,479 Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Putting the whole Conte issue aside, can I just say that the players are absolute spineless and useless in the face of adversity? Were playing awful but somehow managed to get it back to 1-1 with less than 10 minutes to go but what did we do next? Continued to pour forward, continued to let ourselves get exposed. The last 3 we conceded were absolute trash of the highest order and we're in 2018 and the CB partnership of Luiz and Cahill is still actually a thing...FML!

Milan 17,957 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Trying to find some positives... At least Liverpool and Tottenham gained only a point over us this weekend. But truth to be told, we have no business being in the top 4. We are miles behind. I am just trying to figure out this - having a season without European football completely or playing in Europa League? Well, we would have no chance of winning the EL, so...

Alabama 1,992 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Why should conte keep persisting with same tactics and formation over and over again... Bakayoko Cahill and Pedro shouldn't be in the starting line up... False nine system is not working... Conceded 7goals against teams fighting for relegation ....not City Barça or Psg we are playing...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 This shit isnt just on players or Conte or board. Its on the whole lot. Players not giving shit, defending is amateur level, attack is nonexistent. Conte for keeping same shit players over and over and not changing formation. Again Hazard as forward in 3:4:3 thats clearly not working but we see same again. Cahill in defense no words. Board for terrible buys and sells and finaly for the policy of the club that replaces managers every summer expecting great results without any financial support. But to concede 7 goals against fucking watford and bournemouth, there is no excuse even with the limited budget we have. Conte, players and board all look clueless and even if we replace manager, get players to perform better and even win title next season, that wont be longterm, we will reverse to shit season later. AND I think Hazard is as good as gone, anyone that thinks we will recover from his sale is wrong, at current rate we will be next arsenal/liverpool for a while. People call shit on him and that we can replace him, but soon fans will see what we had and how shitier we will be without him. Much like with Costa, but even worse.

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I'm totally fucking shell shocked I haven't seen such a piss poor performance from Chelsea no exaggeration in decades. From the kick off you could just sense the vibes were bad and the starting eleven injuries or not were just laughable. Conte looks like a kid whose father has told him to mow the lawn bad body language shoulders slumped doing a half arsed job and then expecting to get paid.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We were down to ten. I saw the second half and we were awful, but Hazard managed to equalize and I expected us to win. Then the collapse, before we even regained the ball. There was an element of bad luck -today- but overall the team has become unwatchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFC-Hazard10 19 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 How some of these players are deemed professional and worthy of playing for the reigning champions is beyond me. Bakayoko - What honestly has he done since joining Chelsea? Played in one of Monaco's most exciting teams and okay I understand some players may need a season to adapt to the Premier League, but this guy cannot even pass to a blue shirt. When he loses the ball, he doesn't try to win it back, strolls back. On the rare occasion he does run back he clatters into the player who dispossessed him. Awful signing, flop of the season. Pedro - Headless chicken. I love Pedro when the team is on form, but he is useless when we need our forward players to create and hold up the play. Hudson-Odoi would have been able to have put in a better performance tonight. David Luiz - You can tell he and Conte fell out. He just doesn't 'care' anymore. Back to his bull in a China shop ways. Cahill - No words. I can name many more in this side who are not Chelsea standard. It seems a distant memory where we had leaders in our team. Terry, Cole, Lampard, Ballack, Drogba, with players around them like Carvalho, Ferreira, Makelele (my favourite 'recent' player), Robben, Joe Cole, Cech.... only Hazard from now would get in that team. Conte has made mistakes, sure. He even admitted that tonight with his selection. But he needs to have a plan B when it's not going right. At 0-1, we didn't need 3 central defenders. We was creating nothing. Why not take off Moses, switch to a 4-2-3 with Hudson-Odoi replacing him. Okay, he may not have sparked a comeback, but we saw from the Bournemouth game that he is willing to take on his man and try, something our players are not doing at the moment. With just Giroud & Hazard, we was getting crowded out, needed that 3rd man in attack. Speaking of Giroud, I was glad we got him, I think he would do well. But why did we not play to his strength when he came on? He had one opportunity to attack the ball with his head, which ended up with good defending from the Watford attacker. Our season is over. We should from now use our youth to get them more match experience and who knows, even unearth a gem. Hudson-Odoi won't do any worse than current form Pedro/Willian. Sterling won't do any worse than Moses/Zappacosta. As much as he is the main scapegoat for some, Cahill will play as he is captain... It will be an absolute miracle if we somehow progress against Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohops 7 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Couple things, 1. Wat & Bour go man for man tactical & look better. This should show the quality at the club, outside of Eden, Kante, Azpilicueta & Courtois (today) it's a push position by position at best. 2. Last 2 goals should show why Fab didn't & shouldn't start for a team wanting to compete for titles & may be top four. (Other top team don't have a player that they have to change formation to cover for him) 3. I like Conte hope he makes it through, but I understand if he's broken with high expectations but low quality. Don't see a good out come if they axe him. (who would want to step into this, so many holes to fill) 4. Morata will be critical going forward, he gives us something no one else does that's at the club. 5. Teams needs CM that can keep the ball & link the D to O, this is the biggest problem. But quality upgrade is needed in about 4 to 5 positions.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I have zero idea why Conte again played Eden as striker which clearly doesnt work instead of either Giroud or Pedro. And our so called transfers that were brought to add dimensions to our bench, we have Bakayoko in first 11 who I would drop immediately, but there is not single player that can effectively replace him in 3:4:3. Bakayoko. You need good options to rotate, our first 11 isnt great, but when we need to rotate, our bench players make absolutely disaster performances. We now CAN rotate, but we prefer not to because the board bought players that are too shit. 105 million on Drinkwater, Bakayoko and Zappacosta. Let that sink in. What a ridiculous mess the club is in right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
