Actually starting to look like they never intended to offer him an extension.
Levy always said he made a mistake sacking Poch. It’s looking like Conte was meant to be a very expensive caretaker to keep the seat warm and hopefully get Top 4 until Poch can come back.
What is very very clear is that our season died as soon as the World Cup finished and Conte hadn’t signed an extension.
£5m a year is cheaper than paying less of a wage and still having a transfer fee to pay over the contract.Post up the pic of Ivan’s pay slip would ya? That’ll make interesting reading.
Yeah
He doesn't sound like a manager who wants to throw the towel in, I hope him and the board do come to some sort of agreement. I'd rather see 3/4 of these players in the starting 11 go first than Conte. We played well today especially the first half, I don't blame the defeat on Conte. The players self destructed in that 2nd half unfortunately. We need a new keeper badly. Just hope Conte is prepared to stick it out.
It encapsulated him in a nutshell. He talks and acts like a coach...which is great he may make a great one, needs to go get his badges and stop embarrassing himself. Because for all the huff puff and show he is a very very poor footballer. He is the common denominator in so many abject dysfunctional midfields that I think even his cultists are starting to see( doubt they are honest enough to admit it mind).My favourite moment from tonight was the comedy value of Hojbjerg giving his team mates an inspirational bollocking and then his next contribution was to give the ball away cheaply and put the team back under pressure.
Oh Lloris is done for. There were rumours he was gonna be dropped and I actually got my hopes up. Sadly I think it will be club policy to keep playing Lloris even though he messes up every match now.Ok but do you agree with Hugo starting and Son staying on for 90 mins?
Glaring errors by Conte imv

Son - well Richarlison could have played but it's a tricky one based on Son's reputation in general whether that's right or wrong.
He also plays Royal until we booed so much he became uncomfortable he also players Eric Deir and sanctioned the signing of Lenglet. If you think he's infallible your not paying attention but keep watching he'll be gone soonYet Conte always plays him if he's fit.
This whole young side, inexperience thing is really pissing me off about him. Hugo 36, Perisic 34, Davies 30, Dier 29, Hojbjerg 27, Kane 29, Son 30, Lenglet 28 Doherty 31 Forster 35. I mean come on, and he wants to add more experience to that lot?
