The man is not making any sense! Costa left because Conte had a rift with him not because Emenalo sold him. It was a much publicised fight nw. Even before Athletico signed Costa, he refused to return to training! That's nothing to do with Emenalo bruh

stagger:
Was it Emenalo who sent Costa a text message informing him that he was now surplus to requirements?

Was it Emenalo who refused to play Michy Batshuayi and the other black guy who was loaned to Athletic Bilbao last season?

Was it Emenalo who recruited Zapacosta to replace Victor Moses?

I think Conte hates black players really. He has always been an unstable character with a tendency for vitriolic behaviour. Anyone who watched the Juventus team of the mid90s will know him well.

Conte's issues are his own making.

Lies! The board at Chelsea are to blame! Batshuayi started playing first team football and Conte had interest in him. Even when Morata came in, Batshuayi still had first team football until he wasn't performing. Morata came in and brought life into the team.

To say he hates black players is a false statement. Costa isn't black. Victor Moses, Kante, Pogba, Bagayoko are all black players. Conte loved these players.

Face it! Chelsea can not compete in this transfer market of nowadays and so they couldn't get the players Conte asked for. Lukaku was a top transfer target for Chelsea until they stalled and Man utd bought him. Abrahamovic wants Chelsea to be self-sustaining but the youth team is in shambles.

Rubish. So it was Emenalo that caused the conflict between Anthonio Conte and Diego Costa? Costa left because of the conflict which made him not to play for half a season when Conte sent him a text message to look for another club. I an not a Chelsea fan but we dont forget these things easily.

EPL: Michael Emenalo blamed for Chelsea’s woes


Former Chelsea assistant coach, Ray Wilkins, has blamed the club’s former Technical Director, Michael Emenalo, for the club’s current poor form.

According to him, manager, Antonio Conte, is paying for the mistakes of Emenalo.





Reports in the British media claim that Conte is on the brink of being sacked following back-to-back defeats against Bournemouth and Watford.

Wilkins described their performance as ‘inept’ and ‘abysmal’ but added that the Italian’s troubles are not of his own making.

Wilkins is also baffled that Conte hasn’t been given more control in the transfer market.

He told talkSports, “I don’t know. If you’re paying a man as much as Chelsea are paying Conte, his knowledge is far superior to someone like Michael Emenalo, who they brought in to do that job.





“The manager’s knowledge is far superior. He knows the players he wants to bring in.

“The squad is weaker this season than the one that won the league last year. No Diego Costa, no Nemanja Matic – it’s been a massive blow to Conte.”

Costa and Matic were both key members of Conte’s Premier League title-winning team, and both were allowed to leave Stamford Bridge in the summer.

They were replaced by Spanish striker, Alvaro Morata and French midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko, who has struggled to settle at the club and was sent off just 30 minutes into the defeat to Watford on Monday.





Former Nigeria international, Emenalo, was supposedly the man behind those deals in the summer.

Wilkins added that 23-year-old Bakayoko, a £40million signing from Monaco, in particular, is not ready for the Premier League and says many of Chelsea’s downfalls this season have been down to poor recruitment.

Asked by Alan Brazil if Conte is now paying for Emenalo’s mistakes in the market, the former Blues skipper added: “I believe so, yeah.

“I believe it was Michael who made the changes.

“To actually swap Matic with Bakayoko?

“They should have brought in Morata to play alongside Costa and they should have signed Bakayoko just to play every now and again.

“He is 23 years of age and he came in from the French league, which is a bit of a doddle.”

Conte has been known for his erratic behaviours for a very long time.

Graniskova is more involved in Chelsea's transfer than Michael was.

Graniskova was more involved in selling Matic

Michael did not sack Costa, Conte did.

Michael did not unsettle the team, Conte did.

Michael did not tell Conte not to have a backup plan in England.

Michael did not play Hazard as the main striker of a team that lack creativity.

Michael has since left Chelsea since 7 November 2017.

Michael is not responsible for buying players that are not yet near full fitness.

Michael is not responsible for failing to bench a misfiring Morata even when Batshayi was pushing for a starting shirt with fantastic performance in the cups.

Michael is not responsible for Conte failing to bring youth players to the team.

I guess it was Emenalo that sacked Diego Costa by text message.

English fans have hated Emenalo since he became prominent in chelsea. Ray Wilkins is an ass, a 3rd rate pundit who just yammers and spews crap. It pains them how an African man could wield so much power @ chelsea and Ray personally felt Emenalo kicked him out of a job @ chelsea. Emenal was eventually kicked out and chelsea has struggled to complete transfers, Emenal resigned claiming to want to spend more time with family and accepted the Monaco Job in less than 2 weeks. So Eff you Ray wilkins.
