He's not in a Holiday Inn FFS!
No, I'm wondering why Levy would put a 12 month extension clause into Conte's contract but end up not using it?
Either by offering a longer contract or by sacking him in the summer.
He's living in temporary accommodation
You think there's a possible third scenario other than 'stay' or 'go'?
You're starting to hurt my head a bit.........
This is bullshit since we were not playing anything remotely close to beautiful football in late stage Poch era. Beyond 2018 (and somewhat before) there was no decent football. It became hoofball.
Perhaps this is why you are so anti-Poch, because you don't remember what you were actually watching.
The third option is that the 12 month contract clause is triggered by Levy because Conte won't sign a new contract, but why would Levy want to continue with such a short time agreement?You think there's a possible third scenario other than 'stay' or 'go'?
You're starting to hurt my head a bit.........
The same reason the pair of them agree to such terms in the first place last November.
But Levy is now trying to opt out of it by offering a new and longer contract (according to reports).
in the scenario that Conte says no to a new contract what will Levy do with the 12 month extension clause in the present contract? ie Conte would clearly just be running the timer down.
Let me flip this... Why do YOU think Levy & Conte agreed to the 12 month extension clause in the first place?
I mean; you don't have to answer to me; but mull it over and see where the question takes you.......
So that Conte would have an extra year to continue what he started if need be, and Levy was happy with him.
But now Levy has trampled on that by preparing a new contract that he is supposedly soon to offer. So if Conte says no to a new contract offer it also makes an arse of the 12 month extension period clause in the present contract,
ie Levy is preparing to change the goal posts/break the deal.
LOL..... "Trampled" - Such unnecessary melodrama.
Not really.... Conte might just say "No lets stick to plan A.... Lets extend the clause for 12 months as originally discussed"
LOL..... It's not that cloak and dagger..... If Levy is offering more than 12 all that means is he's happy with the way things have gone so far from our perspective.
......And he'd be evidently less keen to see the back of Conte han you are.
Meanwhile, a vote of confidence is hardly gonna offend Conte.
But Levy doesn't have to offer the 12 month extension, it's up to him not Conte.
So for all we know Levy will offer Conte an ultimatum.... sign a new deal or we'll find another manager, and not trigger the 12 month extension period.
Because Conte wouldn't have proven himself (as he hasn't yet) and there is no one of substance to replace him. I'm sure we all want to avoid the nonsense that went on during the interregnum leading to Nuno's illustrious stint with us.
Personally, I think it is the most likely outcome. Levy shown himself to be incompetent and indecisive on these matters so it's the least brave choice. He's got cover because he's got an 'elite' manager and most fans are still in thrall and he's got no other ideas. Man I hate Chelsea.
But don't count out Brendan Rodgers!
Sorry, bruv.... This is just going round in in a weird little circle going nowhere....... Keep dreaming of Poch (not that there's any harm in that!).....
I'm out.
I accept your surrender.
Now, it is time guys n gals.
To discuss openly and honestly.
Have the squad been over trained, yet again, this summer?
Or, have they been trained well, but for a squad in a normal season, without the intensity of games after game?
We seem to be a group battling mental and physical fatigue.
With Ventrone being I’ll, are we still lacking that ability, of a trusted ear, who can tell Conte “they are hitting red zone as a group” or “Son is harbouring too much Uric Acid, he is inflamed and hence needs low fruit and meat, and rest” or dynamics like this?
Seems obvious that pragmatic fluidity is lacking in the group (Contes).
Would putting them on rest and group bonding sessions for a week or two help, or, hurt?

Yeah i agree, there were a handful of great performances in 18/19, Man U away 3-0, Chelsea home 3-1, Everton away 6-2 but i think the only great one after Christmas was Dortmund at Wembley. The squad was thin and knackered with barely any rest after a world cup and played like it.
Nah , that belongs to David MoyesYeh, you're right....... Probably one of these innit....
