Conte’s spoken a lot about rotation, but doesn’t seem willing to do so at all. A bit strange unless he’s going to rotate against Leicester. Side should be strong enough to get the job done.

That's Conte for you. He was the same at Inter and Chelsea.

He'll speak about rotating but he hates doing it.

It probably plays a part in him being rather bad in European competitions. His teams cave when in too many competitions because of the strain put on the first 11.

Just don’t see how the fuck Son keeps starting. Kuluvesci has been fantastic all season, yet Son keeps his place. I really hope Kuluvesci starts against Leicester because it’s winding me up. I love Son, but the facts are he’s been dog shit all season. He doesn’t deserve to start.

Deki has a great attitude, but surely this must be discouraging for him. There’s an extent to which I get trying to let Son play through the rough patch, but at some point it’ll become detrimental to the other players.
 
If I was Dejan I would be demanding some form of explanation by now. Or at the very least some form of benchmark that I am expected to hit to get back into the starting 11.

Being benched for 3 games in a row is no longer rotation.
 
fiar play to Royal, he's Conte's number 1 pick. That defensive solidarity over attack, bet he starts again Saturday also, it's on the other two to really impress when they get a change in one of the domestic cups. Can understand it, Matt and Djed are defiantly weaker defenders

Oh he'll rotate.
When we lose. I think he probably wears the same cacks every game at the moment too.

Same difference. Although I guess watching from the bench is some what more motivating than there just not being a game so soon after the last one.

Thing is. Richie deserves to play.
But Son is definitely the one who needs dropping.


If he's dogshit again, I would hook him at HT today.

Agreed. Understandably Richarlison has played himself into the team and rightfully deserved, but Son has done nothing to warrant a spot at the moment. Kuluvesci has impressed every time he’s on the pitch. Absolute love Conte, but i do find he is sometimes shit scared to rotate the players he considers untouchable. No player is untouchable and especially not Son who’s been fucking shite all season
 
Son again? Lol

There's got to be more to it than play him into form. Could Conte be his 4th Father? What the hell could he see that no one can see here lol
 
My guess is he sees this game as more important than the Leicester game. I know everybody raises their game against us but Leicester truly are the worst team in the league this season.
