Netherlands assistant manager Ruud Gullit has claimed that the inaction of those at the helm of affairs at Chelsea caused the unrest in the dressing room. According to him, the board was to blame for Chelsea’s struggles and not Conte.

Ruud Gullit spent two years as Chelsea manager from 1996-98 and admitted the peculiar difficulties of managing the club. He, rather than pointing fingers at Conte for missing out on the UCL next season, pointed fingers squarely at the board for their poor management.

“I’m not blaming it on Conte,” the Netherlands assistant manager told Goal. “I’m blaming it on the rumours from the beginning about whether he was going to have to leave or whatever. Nobody upstairs did anything about it. No one said: ‘Hey, that’s that a rumour, that’s not true. He’s our coach.’ That didn’t happen.

“The players who are playing, they don’t care, but the players who are not playing see an opportunity that if he leaves, maybe they can play. So, you get a lot of trouble into the locker room. You don’t need that as a coach.

“It’s not been a success. It has been a plaster on the wound. It’s been a very hard season.

“If they could exchange the Champions League place for the FA Cup, they’d do it.”

He then joked that longevity as a manager at Chelsea would be ensured by not winning trophies.

“If you win something, then you’re in danger in Chelsea,” the 55-year-old said. “The one who didn’t win anything stayed the longest – Claudio Ranieri. He was there for four years. All the others had to leave. It’s better not to win anything!”

Mr man please pack well jhoor.Conte is to be blamed full time.
His line up and formation always looks mediocre.

Lastly we should also blame the board for his love story with bakayoko abi na mamayoko.

Chelsea should buy Players that are World Class not fill the dressing room with average players that will not make Madrid's 2nd 11



BTW....

When Afonja did One Festival and asked girls to SIT-AT-HOME no one said anything nor threatened them, so why is the IGP, Umahi and Co blowing hot air ontop IPOB matter?



PS: I'm not even IGBO/IBO

Ruud forgets the tradition at Chelsea. It's on the coach.

Those Lazy players wea coach waste money buy....


UNILAG 1st eleven better pass them..


Well except Ngolochukwu Kante.

Conte should stay as a true Chelsea fan

Not to win anything kẹ̀ ? We are not Arsenal fc.
Chelsea wahala started d day mr Michael Emenalo left d club.

It happens and when it does,everybody point to the coach. He's in charge of the dressing room.

Chelsea is still greater than Liverpool and Tottenham
What use is playing in the champions league when you know Real Madrid and Barca will be playing?

I believe the reason he did that was to spite the board.....it was like"see wetin una buy, e no fit play ball, but since na wetin una buy i go they put am for match, eyin were...... "

There is an atom of truth but Conte too should be blamed.. WTF is Bakayoko Abi na yokoyoko sef

Too many chelshit BS on the front page!!! Wetin happen?

Rubbish


Was it the board that sent a text to Diego Costa that his services are no longer needed?....

That singular act without a back up plan cost Chelsea a spot in the champions league.... Which means they might lose their best players to rivals

Who sells matic for a bakayoko
Who loans out Batsuayi for an unproven Morata

When did Chelsea... The blues start signing bench warmers from arsenal?...

Conte should be held responsible
He doesn't know how to manage players
He will soon sell willian to United

His time in Chelsea is up

Spot on.

Conte Negative Attitude

And Conte kept on fielding Fabregas and Morata even when they were not playing anything.

If there's any body i want to be right now in the world,it is Costa.Cause right now,Costa will be chewing corn and sipping zobo watching the whole Conte drama from the sidelines.
