you are observant. Yoko was the atrocious in that semi finals. anybody with good eye would have noticed it.

You are talking shit

Messi isn't the only athlete or footballer to engage in such. Reason why many footballers and even coaches have had tax fraud cases

TLona1:


I'm not even concerned as long as Messi keeps giving his usual 10/10 masterclass performances.

Before signing Gareth Bale, Real Madrid contacted Messi’s entourage to offer to pay his €250m release clause, plus a €23m salary until 2021, and that the club was committed to pressure Spain’s Prime Minister to make Messi’s tax problems go away. This was what I was tryna pass across.


And besides why are u so harsh on Messi? Is it because he'll totally destroy your club next month?

MoR2:
was? yes na, abi you no watch am last season. That 22year old guy balled in Monaco o, shebi him enter champions league eleven

TLona1:
Still trying hard not to believe this

Elnino4ladies:
Only fools would want Conte out.

MoR2:
bro gone are the days of Alex Ferguson and soon Wenger, when manager do all the signing.

Bakayoko was a good buy by both Chelsea and Conte it's not like your other players are doing better. Is he supposed to carry your team or the team carry him

Morata and hazard no be eleven players they play, abeg shebi Alonso get more goals pass hazard so Alonso no they do anything abi.

Wetin do fabrepass, him no fit pass ball again, wetin con do Pedro today him go score tomorrow him go balloon ball commot.

Chelsea is having a bad season it happens, conte said it would happen so why all the noise kwan

MoR2:
shite football since when, where were you when your team won 30 games last season.

chelsea plays shite football , na wa for u o.

and the bakayoko issue, didnt barca buy gomes, didnt bayern buy renato sanchez did their season go to shite.

Obere4u:


So you want conte kicked out?
I wish Conte will resign and go to another club like Bayern or P's let's see who will transform our dear club with the way the board run their transfer business.

People saying that Conte list is defence first forgot that he wants balance from defence to attack.
Look at Klopp that wants attack first, where's he's team? Even the Sarri where's Nnapoli in Sri A table?
Content deserves credit for achieving what he's achieving with this squad.

Same set of fans wants content to integrate the youth, buy quality players and play awesome football. Make una reason am na.
The man is trying abeg.

MoR2:
just renewed his contract

MoR2:
the same conte that won pep last season, na wa fans and short term memory

cstr1001:

Napoli have been the only team to give City a game this season. And with a fraction of the attacking talent city has, A FRACTION.
Even Pep had to anoint Sarri with his royal scepter.

Ofcourse, it would take a serious addition of talent for NAPOLI to win city in any given game.

Most teams including Chelsea not only lost against city but got thoroughly overplayed. That didn't happen against Napoli. They lost, but they went toe-toe against city.

Chelsea with far better and more expensive players than Napoli , but had to result to coward tactics against city all through the game and still lost.

cstr1001:

It is tiring, man.

Look at Napoli. They play beautiful attacking football even with relatively inferior players to chelsea.

How can we ever become elite when we keep employing defensive-minded managers.?

How can a coach be asking for VVD when his attacking play is teetering on average.

Conte wants sandro, vidal- all of them though world class are defensive players and it shows the mindset of our manager.

We need to start chasing the lemars, greizmann, fekirs, verratis of this world as our manager's first priority, not sandro, VVD or vidal. We can't even dominate possession against any decent team and we want to be elite.

cstr1001:
Who agrees with this post below. The nigga spoke what i have been thinking for some time now.


[b]#SarriBall. I’m all up for it. Quick, brilliant, direct attacking play. That’s what we and Roman want. Don’t we? He’s done brilliantly with Insigne, Mertens and Callejon, imagine what he’d do with a significant upgrade with Hazard, Morata and Pedro (or maybe even Lemar/Fekir/Griezmann or someone of that calibre). The midfield is there with Kante, Barkley (he’d do well in this system rather then asked to defend first) and someone of the calibre of Arthur or Saul whom are also incredible in linkup play and quick transition, and a supporting cast of Bakayoko, Loftus Cheek/Drinkwater and Cesc and a back four of LB (preferably Shaw for me, quick, direct and sound defensively)- Christensen- Rudi- Azpi.

I love Conte but his decision making + style of play with his defence first mentality is draining especially with the attacking players we have. We have one the best players in football in Hazard yet we appoint defensive coaches, like why? He be a proper baller under an attacking coach and who else is available than Sarri? I get that the board ain’t supporting Conte in the market, but in reality I wouldn’t when his shopping list contains 60% defensive players and wants them at high prices!. Our defence is fine, the attack in toothless yet he wants Sandro and openly admitted he wanted VvD! When we have Christensen, Cahill, Zouma and Rudiger! In fact through the 3 and a half windows he’s had, we have signed 3 attacking players! whilst signing 4 defenders (Luiz, Alonso, Zappa and Rudi), calling back another two defender-ish (Christensen and Moses) whilst losing only three players in (Terry, Ivanovic and Ake). Adding three defensive midfielders to a very limited creative one, in Baka, Drinkwater and Kante. In fact we only spent money on two effing forwards! Morata and Michy! Two. In 3 and a half windows he recommends. Pre-Conte it was obvious we needed attacking players yet his list of recommendations had VvD and Sandro high up, another two defensive players! Yet Pedro and Willian who are creeping into their 30’s are yet to be replaced. I don’t blame the board at all when I see that much defensive players on the list when our problem isn’t defence.

Rant over. Get Sarri and I hope Conte resigns rather then gets the sacked, because I thoroughly thank him for last season, I hope he walks out with dignity, but his style of football is holding us back like Jose is holding United back[/b]

Greatihex:
what did neymar do to make him deserve to be there more than those that are there?

BlueAngel444:
Because

Anyway who cares

The list has been made live with it

Greatihex:
just look at the funny things u are typing.
Let me ask u. Has chelsea done very bad this season with the players we have?

MoR2:
so your saying 343 was unknown?? managers did not know 343?

popizaino:
most of don't know that conte tactics is too rigid.

still a misery to me how he won the league last season.

VargasVee:



If by bad man management you're talking about Costa's case, then you're clearly wrong on that.

Diego was trying to get back Player power that dominated the dressing room during the J. Terry's era. Either way Costa had to leave.

Tactical flexibility when you have a bunch of stiff players who can't do nothing when switched on opposite wings?

I had an argument here before about how Conte was not given ultimate decision over players he wanted.
It's nice he made mention of that in a recent interview.

I hope you don't swallow your words at the end of the season.

Greatihex:
oga, you never talk wetin conte do you. There is nothing you have that you can use to crucify him now. Just park.

afrodoc2:
There is no way fans won't vote at least one dancer into the team, after all football is entertainment.

harlehleh:



where do you expect them to stay during the two weeks??

raumdeuter:


You are a nincompoop. Who was the striker Juventus bought to support Tevez upfront after Conte left Juventus

atheist5 you suppose ask am the striker Juventus bought to support Tevez when Conte left

Goatsweg:


Your bit about scholarships being available to everyone is factually incorrect. There are scholarahips available to solely minority students that i could never get. Your blatant lack of knowledge of facts is scary. As for offsetting systematic racism, is it not systematic racism to take away SAT points from Asians through AA, as they on average recieve higher scores? I firmly disagree with AA because it doesnt adress the issue of minority students being disadvantage because it falls under the guise of equality of outcome over oppurtunity, by trying to just get more blacks and hispanics and less whites and asians into colleges instead of raising inner city funding to allow these poor minorities to compete without needing advantages; however, i brought it up to show that modern day America is not racist towards blacks. Key word here being modern. And thats twice now ive seen "when AA worked for whites they loved it" argument. What does that matter? Im sure those benefiting from it now love it.

Goatsweg:


Thats a very fair reason. I have friends here in America who date black women because they like the unique culture

I never knew conte said these before making my submissions on not taking chances:



"We tried to win, we shot 20 times, we created chances to score but couldn’t take them. In the last period we must be more clinical, we must be more good offensively, if you don’t score the game can finish in a draw. After Norwich it is the second 0-0 in a row. We have reflect on this and to improve on the training pitch in this situation."

"You must be worried if you don’t create and it can become difficult to score. But I think this team, every game we create chances to score, this season maybe we are be a bit unlucky. We are not so good to take these chances.

"But my speech is not for the strikers, for example today Christensen had two chances to score, two fantastic opportunites. We have to improve with all the players, not just the strikers or the midfielders. When you have the chance you have to score because especially in these games when you play a semi-final it is very important to exploit every chances you have."

Once your men can't take chances you are dead as a coach. Let's hope he works on that aspect.

airmark:


You are joking, fantastic juventus ko, pepsistic juventus ni.



When the players took their chances and defeated spurs earlier this season, did anyone complain about his system?

His system thrives when players take chances and he knows it. He may change the system that's why he wants additional players that suit whatever he wants to switch to.

Hazard didn't play well and looked heavy, probably because of the calf injury he had in our last match. morata was morata, batshuayi was just there. The defence was ok. Arsenal was not bad.



After conte left Juventus, did they use a new striker to support tevez upfront and sell those wastes like vucinic and co ? Was the new striker not instrumental to their ucl feat by scoring a lot of goals for them? Which coach bought this striker, conte or his successor?

We should stop analysing football on the surface. If conte leaves and the in-coming coach succeeds in getting the players conte wanted to buy and started getting results, will it be sensible to start blaming conte for not performing?

I can't ask for the coach to be sacked when I am seeing our attackers' wastefulness. I expect him to work on them on that and it's too early to give up.

nateevs:



I think you just have something against Conte. Tell me on Manager you know in the PL that has changed playing style/system/formations more than Conte. Mention just one.

Lana1:
Lol. They don forget that 3-0 last season wey dem chop for Emirates that triggered Conte changing to 3-4-3.

Four games this season vs Arsenal. 4 draws. 2 of them goalless. But dem dey shout our bitch up and down....
