If Antonio is sacked I think the club might struggle when managers know they probably won’t get the players they want.

Not happening. We pay our managers top wages, they come here for the salary, not the transfer kitty.

Hasn't stopped Madrid from getting the top managers all the time either. 

Promising, I like what he has been saying lately, and he's asking for more support from the fans. That's changing my opinion, I still think he needs to stop undermining the players though. If the board aren't giving him what he wants he can do it in a better way that isn't blatantly undermining our squad. 

I really miss that sharpness we had last season, Conte's training regime isn't working. Do the players really look better this season? They're knackered in half the games you see them in, mostly midweek games, and what is it, 7 hamstring injuries already this season? So many things going wrong. 

What happened to his family, did he bring them over?

They moved here after his first season, didn't they?

With everything said by him in the last few weeks you would have thought he would have been spoken to by the Board or Roman wouldn't you? Why are they letting him continue whining?  Doesn't seem right does it?

I'm not sure, I remember them visiting towards the end of last season yet thought they went back.

I mention in case this is a factor in Conte's outbursts.

 

His family live here now as far as I know.

I wonder whether they've unpacked. 

He won't survive this one. Top 4 slipping, cl elimination certain. 

"Antonio, would you step into Roman's office for a minute? He would like a chat"

He's ran his course here for me, I very rarely ever want to see a manager go, the last time was AVB, but if we persist with Conte it will only get worse and worse. Best to get a replacement now where we can at least salvage or have any hope of getting a top 4 finish. 

Thank you for last season Antonio, you're a great man and you did a terrific job, but it hasn't worked out. 

On to the next one. 

Pls bring in a manager with some knowledge on how to set his team up to attack. I miss entertaining football.

Conte PLEASE just take the long walk now.

Team set up to lose.  *iss poor sub' after Baks walks and then waits over 30 minutes to bring Giroud on.  Utter clown.  rare for me not to support our Manager but I've had enough of his sulky, whinging and whining.

Straight down the tunnel, not acknowledging the away fans as he always does. All over bar the shouting.

I said before that I want Conte to stay if he himself wants to stay, no matter the results. But if today proves anything, it's that he's completely done with us. No passion at all, no reaction, nothing. I hope he's gone when I wake up tomorrow morning for both of our sakes.

It's over. Fully expecting him to be sacked tonight or tomorrow morning.

1-7 and 0 points against Bournemouth and Watford. He's lost the players. I had a horrible feeling after he called he squad useless after Bournemouth pretty much but yeah.

Get the checque book out roman, another 10m severance payout. 

And lets start all over again. 

Sack Sack so Sacked...

It's time to go out Antonio... 

its Mourinho's fault, its Conte's fault... (insert manger's name)'s fault

lets keep the trend going

Conte is an honest man, he just admitted his faults. Can't say that him criticising the board is because he wants to get sacked. 

Today he had new options, I'd say that even before the Jan window we had enough to beat Watford anyway, but he stuck to his old losing formula anyway, just like Jose stuck with his.

It might be better to sack him quickly to force change after all.

When Baka sees a red,
Looks like you've made your bed,
That's a Conteeee
When you play a False Nine
With no striker, it's a sign...
That's a Conteeee
 

4th in the league, we're in a bad moment but does he really deserve the sack because Bakayako is a clown? I don't see any feasible alternatives mid way through the season.

Time for the board to publicly back the manager to shut the media up - this speculation is killing the team, not Conte!
