pep really is a one of best manager in modern football

3 clubs from different leagues he manage, all of them scoring for fun

Many key players injured why willian didnt?

After spending almost 400mil on new team. I reckon conte can do the same if given the budget like that. I dont rate pep highly anyways. He got players he wanted, he need to make them perform simple as that.

Anyways if we are to play against stoke these are the scenarios
1. Godlike keeper
2. Godlike defender
3. A premier league messi appears

You're giving him a little too much credit. He can maintain his philosophy only provided that he spends as much to strengthen the squad. Pep has always gone to the rich clubs, like Jose does. So to say they are the best or legend is a quite a stretch.

It's not like he goes to Leicester and makes them the PL champion in a season. Throw enough of daddy's cash to the wall, even Roy Hodgson can play attacking football.

His weakness is seen last season when he concentrated too much on attacking football and defence cost them silverware. Again, throwing money to solve problems.

Pep and jose identify their team weakness last season and they reinforce their squad. Conte also identify our weakness but he didnt get players he want plus squad depth is not good enough plus too nice with underperform players in willian cahill. If we got jesus, rashford, think he will be loan out instead play. See what happen to musonda and christeansen.

Throwing money doesn't guarantee wins.

But not spending money almost guarantees zero silverware.

Ranieri managed to bring Leicester to success. His achievement in my opinion far outweigh Pep or Jose just because of the difficulty and odds against it. But he doesn't even get enough respect or recognition in the end.

Or ask Diego Simeone at Athletico. How hard is it to break the Barca/RM duopoly in Spain?

Tell any top managers they don't have money to spend, who will come to you? Tell any players your team is not adding better players, they will immediately leave. Fans will revolt because they are paying for merchandise and seats, they expect to see players who can bring them success.

The whole world wants to see money as the demon, especially with Neymar's transfer. Next season you have Mbappe's 170mil transfer as well.

But they just smashed Bayern like potatoes.

Money doesn't buy success? Sure. Just ask Man City, Chelsea, PSG, RM, Man Utd, Monaco, Bayern.

The board pandai-pandas bought him for 33m before Conte take over, clearly not Conte choice

If that was Willian just now, confirm wide 

This richarlison kid is good.

This is stressful. Need to pressure higher up the field. United players all 6ft plus. Crosses from them will be very dangerous.

I wonder if morata tribute today game for Fernando Torres. Torres goal celebration + fucked up in front of goal a la Torres in the end. 🤔

my thought on the game against united.

we have the right mentality, but not consistency.

so far we always bounce back for any losses with a convincing performance but we are lacking on something to maintain the momentum to pull winning streaks.

new spine are putting their stamp.

player like tibo, azpi and kante has been a great servant to the club last season but now with the christensen, bakayoko and morata are starting to prove themselves, it will be a matter of time before the new spine emerges and create the new image for chelsea.

finishing

we are still lacking in this department despite the 1-0 win, it should've been 3-0 or 4-0 with the amount and chances that has been created. baka, morata and hazard wasted their chances.

cesc wearing the magic hat

yes, this fella is amazing, pint point passes and play his role magnificently as the heartbeat for chelsea attacking department, everything started from him, his weight and speed of passes will determine how we attack.

christensen.

solid af.

overall.

great reaction after the horror show in rome, we must keep the performance up and put a winning streaks to get our groove back. and yes we need to sign another player, in the same mould as Kante for January.

I mean try to imagine. Mourinho take digs on Conte about injuries over and over again in order for the media to pressure him (Conte) instead of him. So when in public, Mourinho offers a handshake. Do you thing he is worthy of a handshake on the pitch after all the shit he's been talking about Conte in pre match interviews?
