Conte wants a goalless draw with that selection and hope we can nick something at the Nou Camp. I'm honestly lost for words seeing 2 CF's on the bench. Yeahhhh cause that worked well before against them... Dire dire dire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,962 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I am really angry at the line up. It is not like Morata and Giroud are injured, suspended or totally, totally out of form. They will surely be introduced in the second half but all the time before that is looking to be fucking wasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El P. 1,354 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I guess Conte is playing with Pedro and Willian to compensate Fabregas'es lack of mobility. It will for sure be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've given up home in this man. He's probably going to walk in the summer anyway. He moans about money for transfer and leaves two of our only recognizable strikers on the bench. Shameful.

Shameful. spot on...I will yet back him if only his head will be here but going by all indication...it seems his head is no more here...playing false 9 against one of the most inform team in europe right now and failing miserably with same set up against piss poor bournemouth and watford yet he has two healthy strikers on bench....watch him moan about his targets the club fails to sign after the game...

Leif 6,006 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I wonder how many games Zidane, Ribery or even Kaka played as a false 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Drogba 2,000 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 In our case Hazard should be called "the wrong number 9" This tactic is ineffective, it is wrong, it does not work. I am pretty sure it killed the buzz of players too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 By dropping Cahill, Conte may want the team to move as a whole. The false 9 is shit when we lump the ball up. We need to move forward as a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireBlue 3,295 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Can some one do me a favour and answer my question. why WHY are we playing false 9 we can thrashed by Bournemouth and watford. Played a striker vs Hull looked a completely different team. So am I missing something here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,962 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Playing false 9 with Hazard up front usually isolated Hazard from the game. And that is exactly what we do not need against Barcelona. On the other hand, him playing with Pedro and Willian worked against Brighton (?) so maybe it will work against Barcelona too. It starts with B too. Desperate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Conte said he had nightmares on the team selection, so he don't even have a game plan. The team selection has given me nightmares. I fear about this game even more now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,983 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I'm just glad Bakayoko isn't playing but yea, shit lineup. Conte is either playing a genius move or an absolute shocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
