I think Conte has been a bit too cautious in sticking with last year's team. Whereas Arteta has played his new boys and it's given them a new impetus we look a bit stale. Bissouma is a prime example. It's obvious he's good enough to start, so I hope Conte will play him sooner rather than later and not wait for a bad result before making changes.

There's no basis for this in reality.....

Bissouma had covid and missed a significant chunk of pre-season.
Perisic IS now starting (having also missed much of pre-season and had an injury to recover from)
Rich IS playing in the role we expected.
Lenglet is injured.

Forster - For Emergencies.
Spence - Work to do.
 
It’s difficult to lichen it to any other thread
not happening no way GIF
 
The only trouble with all these suggested tweaks to the starting line-up is you know what happens - we play like a bunch of strangers and then he has to bring 'the cavalry' on in the 2nd half, just to save the game.

I say start with the normal line-up, then mix it up in the second half, but earlier than has been the case lately. Bissouma & Richie could be very effective if brought on at 60 mins.
He gave Biss 5 minutes I think. His subs are too late to have any effect.

You didn't watch the Chavs game.
S'oton: game didn't need saving.
Wolves: already 1-0 up when the subs came on.


You're seriously fucking boring..... You're mindlessly digging around trying to find ANYTHING to gripe at Conte about. Every fucking thread!!!!
