I think probably would have been the same. Too exposed at the back, outpaced as well. Even when we got the ball, the ball move too slow out of def to attack and Arsenal pressed us really hard. Even better choice maybe was Mikel lol

i'd say board should let conte do massive exodus during winter transfer

let him choose the player he want, not that bloody emenalo

we don't need to care bout newly bought player unable to play in ucl

and we should recall some of our loan players back since they can perform better than our 1st 11 at the moment

look at what happen to liverpool when klopp are given full control

kesian kante kena troll by Leicester fans

daily mail? forget about it... as much as i want this to happen, it will remain as it is at least until january... i say recall all defenders that we have...

Conte has discussed with Chelsea owner Abramovich the fading ability of the players that won the league under Mourinho

Antonio Conte has told Roman Abramovich that the Chelsea squad that won the Premier League two seasons ago needs to be dismantled and rebuilt because many of the surviving players are incapable of regaining their title-winning form.

It is understood that Conte and Abramovich had lunch at the club’s training ground for the third successive day yesterday, during which they discussed how to overhaul a group of players who were champions just 14 months ago.

Abramovich is believed to be sympathetic to Conte’s requests after watching Chelsea suffer comprehensive defeats by Liverpool and Arsenal in their last two Premier League…

could not agree more with ur list. and the best part is conte directly go to pak roman. bold move.

Terry and Zouma injured, no other backup defenders to field.

If use young players and we lose big a bigger margin = confidence destroyer

Fans will want his head too

hard to justify throwing in 2 youngsters as the heart of our defence in a big game against Liverpool/Arsenal at the Emirates.
later lose even more, Conte will be fired before the referee even blow the final whistle.

i think that is easier said than done. being in the hot seat, he got things he needs to deliver or else, he will face the axe from roman. unless roman won't mind losing another season without CL just for the sake of trial-and-error.

on the other hand, if conte still persisted with the current setup and didn't attempt to try other things, he only making his own grave much deeper.

yeah what to do. squad not built by the managers, they just come in and manage the squad. new managers based their stuff on previous manager and just repeat.

hopefully Abramovich and Conte's lunch will sort shit out. put more power to managers instead of emenalo and whoever that is doing a shit job with our transfers

Lineup update anyone?

Cahill again pls 😅
