They'll probably try for Zidane.Hahaha, brilliant!
But who would they get in?
Poch?
Uh-huh yeah he did …
When Chelsea appointed a manager they thought would be “the next Klopp” I bet they didn’t think they would get Kloppesque excuse making as part of the package!
Just the one?
He should have don’t the old pretend to shake hands and then put his thumb to his nose and waved his fingers routine whilst sticking his tongue out. Now that would have been funny.
Their decline is going to be beautiful to watch.
Zidane wouldn’t take that job. I think he turned down PSG. Rumor is he is waiting for the France role.
He is worse than Klopp at making excuses.
Don't think Harrry has anything against dropping off and, virtually, having a free role, tbh.
He always gets his goals.
It's Conte who needs to get his head out the sand and stop pretending it'll be ok, long term.
It won't.
We've gotten away with it.
You only had to watch pre-season to see how dysfunctional they are. Yes, I know it's only pre-season but you could see it wasn't all quite right there.
They don't have a striker but also don't have the personnel to get away without playing one. Their depth in defence is horrendous. Why they're playing James as a centre back is beyond me. Loftus-Cheek against us at RWB works because the system required someone with knowledge of playing central to counteract and nullify Conte's tactics. It was never going to be on against Leeds.
Cucurella was a strange signing too. I like Cucurella, fantastic player but Brighton had their pants down and it almost seems like they signed him just so Man City couldn't. I cant even tell you who their depth at centre back is when James is playing there. Chalobah? And I think they're trying to get rid of him. Sounds like they're genuinely going to splash £80,000,000 or so on Fofana too. Ouch.
They'll hit a run of form at some point this season, I have no doubt, because they have a squad of great players. But it's not all well there.

Hope they totally implode.

Signing Cucurella for what they did when they don't have a striker is certainly an interesting choice...
Seems like their new owner wanted to build goodwill with flashy signings (Sterling, Koulibaly) but not sure if the underlying squad building approach has been smart.
That's what has impressed me most about our window, we have strengthened in all the right areas.
Conte has broken this fucking meerkat looking nonce, he'll be sacked before Christmas.
Along with the laughing laurel and hardy sketch on main screen.
Would pay good money to see them play the ‘curb your enthusiasm’ theme on the Chelsea coach back, too.
Oops
