Poch wold have been an improvement over Nuno. But the issue now is how to keep Conte?And some wanted to have poch back over this guy.
Hahaha.
Give him what he wants.Poch was an improvement over Nuno. But the issue now is how to keep Conte?
In 2011 he took a Juventus that was made up of rubble, finished 7th and built a winning team. It was like a hurricane that also laid the foundations for Allegri's subsequent Juventus capable of winning several league titles. When it comes to building Antonio Conte is a magician. He is a Manichaean: he only wants players who intend to give 100%. Anyone who is not with him is out of the project. Let's not forget soccer players are not Nobel laureates: they want a leader and he knows how to give all this.Not having traditionally been a fan of back 3 formations, and worried we wouldn't be able to back him like Chelsea and Inter, I was skeptical of his appointment at first. I am happy to say that my doubts were unfounded. I am completely blown away by what he has done to the team. The results have been excellent so far, but its the possibility for a real resurrection in the form of some of our old favorites that has me most impressed. I honestly never again thought Dele, Winks, or heck, even Dier would be able to play at the level they did today against a team like Liverpool- Salah has wrecked us lately and today we finally shut him down. We should have won that game and blown them out but I don't even think our players were prepared for the number and quality of chances we had!
I'm really happy for Conte, and for all of us. Its so nice to have the team on the right trajectory again. Very nice gift for the holidays!
You're not right about which right is right.See the circle jerk about this guy has started in here already. All due to somewhat-if-you-look-at-it-the-right-way performance against Liverpool. Sure, there's been a COVID issue. Sure, we could have had more goals (and taken 3 points) on another day. Sure, some players that have been shit for an eternity seemed to play better. Sure, even Sess look like he knew what he was doing.
But has anyone asked why Sonny looked like he didn't know what he was doing? No, I'm sure you haven't. Has anyone asked exactly WHY those other goals weren't scored? No, I'm sure you haven't. Why not? Because it all points to this guy. Terrible appointment!
#ConteOut #I'llbewriteoneofthesedaysandIwillcrowaboutit
Get the cunt in on a free this summer.Conte spending at Chelsea imho tends to reveal that the targets he wanted, he didnt get, because the board bought cheaper.
The one stand out signing , who is still there today, for £29 m was Rudiger.
Working wonders thus far with some very average players. Players are actually putting a shift in, look fitter and more motivated. Now get the fucking chequebook out for the guy and offload every player he doesn't rate
EmbarrassingAnd some wanted to have poch back over this guy.
Hahaha.
Caveat for small sample size and opposition, but Conte has literally transformed us - just look at the XG stats.…
By investing. Conte remains alone if the company follows him 100%. Not 80%, not 85%. He wants 100%. In my opinion, at least 2 years he stays.Poch wold have been an improvement over Nuno. But the issue now is how to keep Conte?
I mean he was always a short-term caretaker but he was an absolutely shocking appointment. Same style football as Jose but without any history, gravitas or personality. I wouldn’t mind if it was Tim Sherwood for a season on £28K pa but the deaf and dumb mute was on about £8M pa…. Whoever backed Nuno should leave the club immediatelyLet's be real, Nuno came here for bantz didn't he
