I was about to say, with Luiz in midfield surely he's the target for the press? Not used to that level of pressure.Moses will be back, Pedro still out, this is how they will play I reckon:
[formation=343, Courtois, Azpilicueta, Rüdiger, Christensen, Moses, Kante, Luiz, Alonso, Willian, Morata, Borga][/formation]
With that formation, there is only one logical ending:
wouldn't surprise you one bit.If they play Hazard, it shows just how desperate and worried they are......I hope they do rush him back....wont do their season any favours

Can't disagree with that. The only difference (& therefore perhaps my doubts creeping in) is that sissoko had a lot of PL & international experience before he joined us. So I think it's reasonable to expect more from him more quickly than the players you mention. They were all very young & inexperienced...as is our man Vincent. But while he wears the shirt I will hope he comes good for us.Where would we be now if we had given up on Kane, Lamella, even Danny Rose players that were highly criticised in their early playing days Harry Kane big time. I don't believe he's played enough football for us to establish if he can make it Poch need to give him playing time if at the end he is crap then I will be the 1st to slag him off
Do you?Says Conte who's won everything to Poch who has won nothing?
Trying to massage Pochs ego, then turn him over I think.
Oh, my mistake.Not true Mick

I hadn't realised that You were the Archbishop of Banterbury.
Bizarre take on it to be honest.Yes I do. He is under pressure and needs the win...its aimed directly at Poch (the coach under pressure always makes a similar statement-mind games) and its a swipe at Abramovich and Chelsea as a club-because its all money and instant success. Its a win/win , if he loses or wins-if you know what I mean.
Common Italian saying.. Non v’è rosa senza spina - There is no rose without thorns.
Conte knows a loss on Sunday the pressure will be turned up and further questions will be asked.
Luiz hasn't got the legs to play middle. At WHL we played crosses onto him and both occasions Alli beat the mop head. I don't know how they got away with him last season-we exposed him big time.Conte said to the press today that he does prefer him in the Chelsea defence. Probably means he's gonna force that half fit Bakayogo to play in midfield.
Against :dembelewtf: & in midfield, you can only feel sorry for that Bakayogo kid (even if he would be fit)
Yes I am complicated?Bizarre take on it to be honest.
He's saying we have a very young and settled squad, with strong foundations laid. Can't say I disagree with him.Yes I am complicated?
What does Conte mean, emulate Pochs long term success-they have just won the PL?
Their youth teams are in good shape also?
Conte as a coach is not a long term venture wherever he goes?
I can only take statements as that as, an action needing a reaction not speaking form the heart but the head?
He wants to emulate Pochs sucess long term. So why is he at Chelsea- one club its not going to happen?. Its a typical thing a coach says when he is under pressure and expecting to be beaten. Its trying to create good omens by praising the opposition and playing the underdog. He is a fool and fools need to keep quiet and if he needs to share comment, talk about hes own club.He's saying we have a very young and settled squad, with strong foundations laid. Can't say I disagree with him.
cheers from Chelsea. Spent 30 minutes on hold this morning while enjoying some fish and chips in Edinburgh between flights. The gentleman I spoke with was much more helpful than the last one. They'll have my tickets ready. I'll be there by noon to be in queu early.
