Meh, we have some voodoo over City. I fear the Leicester game is going to be hesitant and open to a late winner like this one.

Conte is absolutely in love with this guy for some reason. The difference in attacking threat between our left hand side and right is night and day but Chicken Royal keeps on starting. It’s getting to Dele and Poch levels of undroppable. Only problem is at least with Poch I could understand it somewhat as Dele used to be good. Chicken Royal has been alright at best from day one.
Very true. We really are one paced. Even Richarlison whilst relatively sharp isn’t the quickest. If you don’t have much pace in the side then you have to create space by moving the ball quickly which we don’t seem able to do. Kane and Son don’t seem to offer movement either which doesn’t help. Conte earn your moneyWe are in dire need of some pace and creativity.
We genuinely must be the slowest team in europe
Spence, Bissouma, Lenglet, Doherty....... Why are they not getting minutes when the football is as shite as this?No no no!
This is contes fault!!
RWB who cannot play over the halfway line.
Picking a striker on a stinking run of form.
Playing two in midfield who have been outgunned in virtually every game.
Late changes.
Not enough change.
This is on him. He has no right to bollock them.
It's a very worrying pattern developing from both the team performances and Conte. He's proving to be very inflexible, showing poor tactical decisions eg not subbing early enough, keeping out of form players in the team, not being ruthless enough with players over poor form and general team play.Agree would rather this happen in the CL when we still have 4 games to qualify against average opposition than in the PL.
Lenglet, Kulu, Biss, Spence/Doc all to start on the weekend.
If Son and Emerson start again Conte has really lost the plot.
We need to start taking the game to teams and dominating. Change the fucking 343 if we are doing nothing!
Conte only changes his system in desperation (getting pumped by Chelsea, against 10 men Marseille). We need to be more tactically flexible.
I don't care how hard he works, Emerson is shit end of.Don’t want to hear anything about Emerson he is what he is and works his balls off
Kane
Romero
Davies
Tepid performances.
Not the worst time to get this result but it shouldn’t have been
The Absolute GOAT . I got a dislike for every one of my previous post in the last. I wonder if you still believe we are playing any different to when José was in charge. I wonder if you still believe we had a "Great Transfer Window".
Seems like another of Levy's Masterclass decisions came back to Haunt him. Edwards and Co just schooled Us.
But Hey, Our stadium is still better than their stadium.
Funny I’ve been saying that for ages but get shot down by prays who keep going on about winning when playing crap. Well you can’t play crap all season and hope to win more than you lose or draw. Like I said the results could easily have gone the other way and no one could say we didn’t set we it.We play some awful football. Don’t remember Conte’s Chelsea side being this bad to watch
No no no!

This is on him. He has no right to bollock them.
He was always technically erratic so you wondered how he would fare once he lost his pace. Who knows?Is Son dusted? would hate to see it but he's at the age where things can fall apart very quickly.
Not sure what is issue with him using subs or bringing them on so late. He’s showing no trust in the squad players and they’re getting no game time. One of this clubs strengths is its strength in depth but we’re not flexing it. It’s going to be a very long season if he only uses 13/14 players from the squad and 11 of them play 90% of the minutes
We always seem to play to the level of our opponents. You can't win anything playing that way.
Agree 100%. That was the point I was trying to make.well the 2 in midfield are in a losing battle before kick off because they are outnumbered, cant typically blame them per say, they are setup to fail in essence.
Ivan did well. Should be sitting on an assist or 2 if someone attacked the ball in boxThe only players that I am not pissed off with tonight are Hugo, Ben and Kulu.
Perisic had his worst game for us, Rich's decision making was terrible, Harry couldn't pass the ball, Bent and Hog were useless but what is the point of Royal leaving our half? He had 3 golden chances and blew them all. His last attempt at a cross was awful, awful awful. All his previous attempts were just awful.
His man for the corner goal and nutmegged for the next goal.
