Must. Stop. Checking. If. He's. Been. Fired. Yet. Every. Five. Minutes.

I've given up tbh. Seems clear to me that as long as we're relatively safe from relegation the club are just gonna wait till the end of the season when there are options.

My fear is that he will have some end of season bounce when nothing matters and will drag us to 8th or 9th, and that'll keep him his job as the justification will be "when we were fit we were 4th in the form table!" or some shit.

Or when he wins the Europa 😜
 
This was my reply to this



And our injuries that season match that.

Bentancur: ACL
Bissouma: Ankle
Lloris: Knee
Richarlison: everything broke down under Conte

Players were complaining about running more in training the day before a game than they did in the actual game.

I think that also matches the knee injuries you see from the running load and pure KMs covered by Dragusin and Solanke since our injury crisis meant they had to play every game this season.
Wouldnt Richarlison in either managers injury list. Hed get injured waking up.
The injuries we are getting now are 85% soft tissue, strains, pulls etc. Add that into the 'normal' injuries like above solanke etc. its piling up constantly. That has to be due to what the players are being asked
 
He’s getting the season or at least until the injured players are back. We will go on a 3-4 wins run out of 5-6 games, people will be like "I told you so we’re good when everyone is back" because that’s all they do these days, Levy will lap it up and we’ll be here next season with the clown in charge still fucking around 8th-12th. Mark my words.

We won't. We can't.
We're out of the league cup and FA Cup, so we'll avoid any games against the Coventry's, Tamworths, Man City's of the world.
The knock out phase of the Ropey League will be against tougher opposition than Carrierbag FC and anta's Elfs.

Our remaining league games
Man United
Ipswich
Man City
Bournemouth
Fulham
Chelsea
Southampton
Wolves
Forest
Liverpool
Spam
Palace
Villa
Brighton


I can't see anywhere there we get more than 2 in a row and, tbh, I'm struggling to see 2.
 
I remember reading that Conte hardly rotated at Inter either and he had a reputation for winning leagues when he was out fo Europe already, or not doing great in Europe because all the energy went on the league. He is very much a starting 11 tyoe of coach with very very minimal rotation around the edges. He has guys he trusts and that is who is playing 95% of the time.
I remember feeling like this under Poch towards the end!!
 
Are you 5?

Its the only thing that would explain a little tantrum baby like you and the things you say.

Go away -the adults are talking.

By the adults .. do you mean the clueless fuckers who have been wrong about everything all season but still have the balls to try and act mature and clever? Have some shame, mate.

I'm not having a tantrum, I'm absolutely pissing my sides at you and your diet Airfixx routine on here.
 
There is no “injured players are back” scenario ffs

Villas injuries were more or less as bad as ours yesterday.
And then other players will get injured when the ones who are out are back.

It’s all bullshit, injuries are part and parcel of managing a club. Bournemouth had injuries, their squad cost far less, are paid less and still outperforming us easily. Their manager isn’t bleating about it. He just gets on with coaching his team.

The injuries don’t explain the very basic lack of structure, shape and tactical naivety which we’re seeing every single week.
 
How much rotation did Conte do?

Have issues with Ange, his system, his gamble on recruiting young but just making bold statements like "any competent coach would have rotated better" isn't based on reality. Some coaches rotate more than others, competence doesn't really factor into it.
Any competent coach wouldn't be playing this overly energetic kamikaze system. So the players aren't fit to drop by November and then continue to play it with a serious injury crisis and you know it
 
11:40am. The club hasn't tweeted since the final whistle. Ali Gold hasn't tweeted his usual bullshit yet either.

I live in some level of hope for the next hour or so.

Mate all you do is have your little tantrums and then get Sin Binned - who the fuck gets sinned binned record amounts of times on a forum full of cunts - it takes a very special kind individual.
