He's got a lot of shit recently but I don't think anyone can question his hunger for the job day to day. It's obvious he doesn't want to stay long term now but I don't think anyone can question his professionalism. I suspect a lot of the club employees could benefit from the same attitude.
FFS that is not something to be praised.A lot of people rightly questioning his commitment but he did look rough as fuck and ill in his interviews.
Probably shouldn't have been on the touchline for the Milan game. The fact that he tried when he is clearly unwell is credit to him.
I do agree. However I replied to someone who said that Conte has made Son play like shit, while in fact Conte is to blame for trusting Son too much.Then again... what is worse.
Having touch of a donkey.
Or keep starting someone with touch of dokey?
But seriously though - if Conte deserves credit for "making him winning golden boot" he also deserves critique for making him play with his back towards the goal.
Can't have just one.
Its almost like the level of ambition in the transfer market is reflected in the table regardless of who is manager
Dier one was fucked upAnd then we got a few yellows later on which rubbed salt in it
Part of me thinks Son's struggle is due to Perisic taking up some of his operating spaceI do agree. However I replied to someone who said that Conte has made Son play like shit, while in fact Conte is to blame for trusting Son too much.
Son is not playing like shit because of Conte, but Conte keeps making the mistake of trusting in Son.
I don't think so. His touch is all over the place. The way he moves his body looks like he's in full panic whenever he gets the ball. It looks like both a physical decline and a mental block as well.Part of me thinks Son's struggle is due to Perisic taking up some of his operating space
In fairness, sick or well, his shit tactics would have been the same.FFS that is not something to be praised.
He came back too soon. He put himself into risk.
He made bad decisions and totally ruined the EPL round for us. We lost to fcking Leicester fcking 4:1.
Your post sounds roughly like "Oh, yea, sure I was exposed to the COVID positive friend, but I was sure I did not catch it. I had an assignment to finish next day. So I went to the office. Now every single person is in high fever, but I completed my task. So I am super-efficient and dedicated worker!"
Also because he's not playing as close to kane as he was.Part of me thinks Son's struggle is due to Perisic taking up some of his operating space
I'd take Winks as manager and Mason in midfield over Conte and Hojberg
I'm no fan of ENIC, but facts are facts - We've spent 247m euros since Conte arrived and if we buy Porro it'll be over 300. Maybe we got the wrong guys, but we can't blame a lack of spending.Its almost like the level of ambition in the transfer market is reflected in the table regardless of who is manager

Does he have the balls to go with Skipp and Sarr at the weekend, or were they removed alongside his gall bladder?

He's pulling a sicky. Doesn't want to be here. My old man had his gall bladder removed and was back doing site work three days later aged 60.
He's also a lying bastard who claims "It's not about money" but won't admit he's shit and step down without a pay off.He's pulling a sicky. Doesn't want to be here. My old man had his gall bladder removed and was back doing site work three days later aged 60.
He's homesick, doesn't want to coach us anymore. Time for him to fuck off, Levy needs to man up and put the poor chap out of his misery. Bring in a manager who actually wants to be here and doesn't see us as a stepping stone.
