We'll be all for a project manager if we show promise, right now we look like a stereotypical Italian team.

I think with Lloris 35, Son 30 and fading and Kane 29 and 18 months on his contract, Perisic 34 not to mention clearing out the dross like Emerson, Tanganga Doc, Dier, Sanchez, Moura its going to be a project whoever is manager. Do you give that to Conte who will want Hakimi, Bastoni and Barella but probably wont get them or someone that can build?
we won't get top 4 this season with these tactics we are already 4th after newcastles win today we will end up in 6 or 7 th place by the end of season if this continues! 
Really feels like 20/21 under Mourinho. Strong start, top of the league but overall poor, negative performances before imploding largely due to individual errors and lack of attacking play and falling to 7th.we won't get top 4 this season with these tactics we are already 4th after newcastles win today we will end up in 6 or 7 th place by the end of season if this continues!

So true about the 3 at the back chasing a game. I mean what manager does that? Throw on Gil, try something different and try and cause a bit of chaos. But no, rigid shape at all times.
The stereotypical English team involved long ball at the tower and large scrums with forbidden shots. The real problem is the absentees: try to remove the decisive players from the various teams ...
The two goals agains Sporting, the red card against Woolwich...
Conte has done good things and we need to get better players in to support him
But fuck me if he keeps picking Royal and Sess over Perasic and Doc until we get new guys in he needs sacking

Emerson/Sess <> Doherty/Kulu was fine, but essentially like for like (352)... Bit earlier would have been nice, but stil....
Biss <> Lucas = 343, but at that point with 88mins on the clock......? Why give up a man in MF....? Go 253 or 244 and do it by the 80min mark.
He had a great impact last season but i really dont see what he's done this season. We havent beaten anyone you wouldnt expect to beat and the football has been stone age.
I'm willing to give the style a pass ATM due to the fact son has been so poor the WC schedule and the frontline injury crisis.
If this is still happening after the WC and Kulu, Richy and Son are back firing with Kane then we have issues
His big mistakes this season is his stubborn behaviour insisting on playing Royal not changing things fast enough when they ain't working.
This Jan transfer window is huge need a RWB a CB and a creative mid minimum to have a proper run in the CL and PL otherwise we will piss him off and struggle for top 4
All this “the players let go down today” shit is bollocks.
The way HE sets the team up puts our shite defence under even more pressure. He knows that they aren’t the best defenders in the world so why the fuck would you set your team up in away that puts your greatest weakness under even more pressure. You’re just asking for them to fuck up.
Stop this wank brand of negative, Stone Age football and take the game to the fucking opposition. It’s an absolute embarrassment that we have players like Kane, Kulu, Richarlison, Son and Perisic, all very good attacking players yet we set our teams up to make the least possible fucking use out of them week in, week out.
Conte needs to fuck off.
Newcastle are better than us. Fucking Newcastle.

We are a very strange side. It is really hard to think of anything that we do well apart from scoring from corners. We are not great at passing, crossing , shooting, countering at speed and we don’t seem to be able to concentrate for the full 90 minutes. Our movement up front is also a bit lacking- yet we are still 4th. It’s bizarre
Why set the team up so negative when liverpool have been defensively vulnerable over the last few weeks.
Can't keep saving the game in the 2nd half

I get what you're saying but we have Conte in the first place because things were toxic under Nuno after 10 games. After decades of under performance, no one is going to accept finishing 8th and trusting the process. We are as likely to appoint an AVB as a Poch in any case.
