Team will be: Courtois Azpilicueta, Cahill, Ivanovic, Rahman Matic,Mikel Willian, Fabregas, Hazard Costa

Changed my mind on this one, he is fully justified in making outrageous demands as its the only way any of them can get noticed. Seeing the same players fail every single week knowing there is nothing they can do to get dropped already having pissed away the entire season is f**king maddening, Conte needs free reign to shatter the dressing room and do whatever the f**k he wants. Except stick with 4231.

For what little its worth, I for one don't care at all what any other fans think about us, in fact them all hating us makes it even better when we win. Proud 'chav and rent boi' since mid-90's

Being in the camp that thinks Ivanovic shouldn't be starting at all for us next season, I'm inclined to go for Azpilicueta. Lahm is the best example of how a captain dosen't need to be blood and thunder but can lead by example instead.

Its difficult to say as none of the fanbase has any inkling behind the scenes. We all know how much JT does for the youth, but what about the rest of the squad? Fabregas could be a fantastic mentor and certainly looked like one with his interview with Hazard after the FA Cup game with City but for all I know Falcao could be working non-stop with the reserves. At the very least I'd like to see Terry have a say in his successor.

Technically the referee saw at least Dier's so they can't do anything about it.

OHHHHHHHHHH

Hazard has to be injured, Hiddink can't be that dense to drop him after scoring a brace...Mikel/Matic hasn't worked once and invites continuous pressure.

No way we're keeping a clean sheet :(

(Neuer) (De Gea) Couldn't find a Cech one (thankfully :))

Agree with this, he's like a more technical Ramires with better hair to fill that ball carrier role. Can't help but feel we would be better though with a pure DM in Matic, a deep playmaker in Fabregas and a box to box with RLC or Naingollan.

You could make a mistake reel for any player, even Neuer has made a few high-profile ones this season. I'd have Hart above Cech (this season only) and behind only De Gea & Lloris.

Even the Hazard from last year?

Remy with a run of games and at match fitness is a good second striker and should have had more playing time under Mourinho... don't know how much truth there is to this, especially with all the noise made recently about giving the youth a shot at last.

Could it be Falcao? RF for Radamel Falcao with the F backwards for whatever reason.

For that money definitely, aside from some wonderful free kicks in the first half of the season, he still lacks an offensive output compared to other AM's that money would buy.

No-one cares about his race/ethnicity, people care that our player recruitment, development and sale policy seems completely incoherent. The question is should the Director of Football be blamed for that which I think he is as his role is very ill-defined.

I can only think of Morris, Ferreira & Hilario, is there any others?

I'm not sure how things work, but do the players get paid in between seasons or does it start with them returning to pre-season? If they are being paid all year round, then they should be hitting the gym constantly and even if they're not they should do so if they aspire to be the best players they can.

Moss is actually Ovrebo in disguise, how West Ham got such a soft penalty and then to deny that headlock on Huth despite looking straight at it is criminal

Colkett or Chalobah I think

From what I gather its a bit rubbish judging by the quality of the post-season dvd's, can't stand the commentator even if he is a die hard Blue, through no fault of his own his voice just grates on me.

He had our best chance yesterday with his turn and shot, how that wasn't given as a corner was bizarre when Hart clearly had pulled off a good save.

He got absolutely zero service yesterday and that's not hyperbole, I can't remember him being given a single pass in anything approaching an attacking position. This leads to him coming deep or dropping wide where he gets horribly exposed for his lack of technical skill and removes his best attribute beings finishing.

Yeah today wasn't really his fault, 1st was a deflection, 2nd was a one on one with one of the world's best pure finishers and the 3rd the CM's and CB's were non-existent.
