The players he wanted were never going to come here, he is not a draw outside Italy. You can bring up any of his rumoured targets and I can give you a solid reason why we couldn’t have signed them. Let me get the ball rolling; Spurs were never going  to sell Walker to us and Walker wanted to play under Pep. Van Dijk was tapped up by Klopp and only ever wanted to go to Liverpool. Everton were never going to sell Lukaku to us after the Stones saga.

Ohh please mate dont give me that bull......Theres so many good players our there......go in fast and make the deal.....they wont sell? You go to another good target. No matter how much we all jump up and Down.....the board failed him and us. Even f**king arsenal are able to get get good players.........

Still its better than losing 6-0 to Rotherham.......Jose was right Roman kick out the American clear the foreign crap out and get the best English or at least British talent a go.....for gods sake let Abrahams have 2 or 3 games now. Yes i was at Bolton the day Flasher kept us up.Blue will always be the colour.

You can't just blame foreigners, that is dumb. An English player has been one of our worst players this season (Cahill) and a foreigner has been our best (Kante). Also, Abraham would be sh*t for us, the guy has had an underwhelming first season in the Premier League.

Added to his sorry use if a younger players...no tears from me when Roman fires his ass this evening...please 

Ohh yes im sure it will do all of us a huge favour ha........you are missing the goddamn point mate. How many times we been here? We got so many issues.......its time we go for the root. We are going Down.......our stock has gone Down not up.

Are you for real.....you think the scenario would be much different with another manager? Conte indecisive? He tried his best to get decent f**king players........but he always gets the second or thrid option at best.........and somehow all this on him. Look back at our history under Roman......its the same crap everytime but somehow that famous war axe only comes out for the managers head........we as fans are no f**king better than the board......

 

Let's look at the transfers shall we?

Rudiger -Conte

Zappacosta - Conte

Emerson - Conte

Morata - Conte

Bakayoko - Conte

Giroud - The Board

Drinkwater - The Board

Barklay - The Board

Conte didn't get Alex Sandro because he didn't want to leave Juventus and Juve wouldn't sell. Conte saw what Abramovic and the board are really like after this Summer and he realised he'd never get the targets he really wanted so he downed tools and we the fans are suffering. You do as best you can with the players at your disposal but I don't see any coaching in any area of the pitch whether it be the goalkeeper, the defense, the midfield or our attack. Players are just going through the motions and so is Conte until the end of this season. I have no sympathy for him.

Conte has said he gives the board a list of positions and targets, and switches off his phone. Why have we suddenly seen an influx on Serie A players if they are not Conte’s targets? They might be 2nd/3rd choices but they are still his targets. That doesn’t still explain why we have only won 3 league games in the new year. Weren’t we 2nd before the turn of the year? He moaned, requested new signings and another 3 players were signed in Jan.

Well Mr Harris he is not playing for a quality side. Ours even though most are merceneries are quality. Who ever sanctioned the likes of Drinkwater and The Scouser need their heads to be examined. The Russian maybe keeping a low profile especially if he deals in tea supplements or white powder. We need Chelsea through and through players....Willian and Kante i agree with you and Zappacota and the new lad from Italy, at least they have passion...Hazard is on his way thank god  that is what has cost us. Lets buy the best British money can get.stick Abrahams in the middle. He is like Greaves, he scores inside the six yard box, i have watched him for the last 5 years at Aldershot.....out of the kids the only one who has shown passion.......Enough is enough give the working mans game back.

 

Phillip you keep eating your prawn sandwiches in the directors box son. You have no idea what real Chelsea is.

I think it's also relevant that Steve Holland left for the England job. I'm not sure who the middleman between Conte and the players is supposed to be now but it's an important role in keeping focus and spirit. If we could get the likes of Frank or JT back at the club in an assistant role it could change things dramatically.

Abrahams scored this weekend. His first since November!!

Name some of these best of british players that are out there. If our national team is bang average where are these brilliant english players.

I haven't laughed as much as I have just done  reading your post Philip, one flew over the cuckoo's nest comes to mind

This is what happens when you don’t get rid of managers, they stink the place out. I love Conte but we should have sacked him after Bournemouth/Watford as it is clear that doesn’t want to be here. We had top 4 in our hands in January but Conte has sulked ever since  

For once, Roman has been patient and stuck by a manager. Ironically, it has come back to bite him. 

66 you should know better. Or did you used to just turn up for the members cup final or ZDS

troll alert

Same old story, 1-0 up and throw it away.

I've accepted that we are now the 5th or 6th best team in the league but what's disappointing is that we couldn't manage a win for Ray Wilkins today.

Can you blame him....really? Put yourself in his shoes after rocking the epl......smacking the darlings all over the place, puts 343 in action and everybody copies it.  SUmmer comes and he thinks f**k yeah I get backed....and then they dump crap-average players all over him. With all this and all the other teams going strong and stronger and this is the result. Conte aint no damn robot, he has feelings, a grown ass man that gave it all......he needed the Club to return the favour........the rest is histroty.

I can understand why he would be frustrated, but I find it completely unprofessional to continue throwing your employers and players under the bus in the press. What he created at the get-go of the season was a narrative of the Chelsea board vs Conte and it has followed the team since day one. In my opinion, it isn't that different from Musonda going on Social Media to complain about lack of playing time. A grown and professional man would deal with such things behind closed doors and if that doesn't work, then he could have walked in the summer rather than taking an improved contract.

Again, I'm not saying Conte is the main cause for our bad season; I personally think its a combination of the transfers, Conte, the players, and injuries; however, I do think that its unfair to give Conte a free pass and put the blame on everyone else.

He got those players cuz there werent giving him sh*t.......his hands were long cut off and was forced to get anybody in. You ccant possibly think the board did good? You think our Club are efficient? FFS mate.....its all a patteren.......no more or less.

The American as chairmen that aint got a clue. 

The American has lived in England a long time. Went to Uni there and was a Chelsea season ticket holder. I know we have our ups and downs, but mostly ups since Roman took over. Expectations are higher now than when I started supporting. in 1969. Rightly so I suppose. Big big summer ahead, it will make or break us. KTBFFH

I meant that as my post. Modern technology to blame, or was it Marina?

Im not giving anyone a free pass....f**k no. When the same sh*t keep happening no matter the manager, then maybe its time to look for the root.....which is utter incompetance.

Southampton away, Burnley away, Swansea away, Liverpool at home, Huddersfield at home, Newcsatle away

I can only see 1 win from those remaining 6 games.

Whitewall.......bet you never ever stood on it especially if Arsen a l or the do as you likeys from the East came. Trust me i aint a troll, i would die for Chelsea even to this day.......still what are those 3 billy goats doing.

Funny not many of us went to uni in the 70s or 80s.

Form Table over the last 10 matches puts us at 15th.
