I don't see either Levy or Paratici sanctioning that though.

Manager Antonio Conte

You said you wanted him dropped
Conte can say what he wants, if Kane plays the way he has been and Conte doesn’t drop him, then I guess we’ve just hired ourselves another dud
You have to give them credit when it's due. Conte is a world class appointment.
However, this is conditional on them supporting him in transfer window. Let's wait and see.
lmao if Kane keeps playing like this, Conte won't just drop him, he will probably physically assault him.
For short term, immediate success then yes. Personal preference that i would rather have a good manager, longer term to build an attractive side.
This is exactly how I feel.
If I’m going to break away from the sort of manager I want here, it’s for Conte.
He’s a top 5 manager in the world no doubt.
I didn’t want Nuno to go, it was too soon, but now he’s gone I’m excited about Conte coming. Th will be a complete roller coaster exciting 2 years before he resigns in a huff.
Potter is the best option based on the club profile.
Conte is the best manager ability wise we could get.
To an extent. But the top managers get more out of players. Just look at how much some of Liverpool's players have improved under Klopp, the likes of Henderson and Robertson. I have no doubts whatsoever Conte can't get Harry motivated and firing again, and get another 15% from the rest of the current squad.

Oi mush some of us are Italian on here!
But this may actually be good for the long term too.
As great as Potter is, he's nowhere near as prominent as Conte, especially for players outside the PL.
In this Jan and summer transfer window, there are a couple of players whose contract is about to run out such as Kessie & Vlahovic. They will get many offers from a range of clubs, so manager pull is important.
Then if Potter/ Ten Hag takes over in 2024, it's probably better to be with a squad that has Kessie & Vlahovic in rather than inferior alternatives.
Lots of people talking about 352.
I can’t say I watched lots of Inter but his Chelsea didn’t play 352….it was 343 (or 523 if that’s how you want to categorise it).
Matic and Kante in CM, behind Hazard, Willian and Costa.
I’d expect a similar setup here, which probably means curtains for GLC and Ndombele as they can’t play in a MF 2.

Yep i'd say Potter or ten Hag would have been my choice but Conte is a great manager and i truly hope it works. It'll certainly be interesting, which after the last 2 years i think we all need.
Don't think Contè will give a fuck for his reputation though, he will play his own team, Kane may be on the bench a bit more...
Or ends up doing bird for assaulting Levy
