To be fair that’s probably what this team needs. A big kick up the arse.

They can’t walk all over the manager so Conte is showing them who’s boss, but I don’t see what’s wrong with a private chat and let him off the hook? He’s been absolutely vital for us recently and could well be the difference between 1 point and 3 points.

He's taking discipline way too seriously, during these moments you just have to play your best players and Willian is a sweet guy who was had a moment of frustration. I highly doubt he went on about it after the match.

Costa threw a bib at Jose and mouthed off to him during matches and did not get these kind of treatments because Jose wasn't going to shoot himself in the foot just to show he is the man.

Because he wants 3 central midfielders. Isn't Luiz injured as well?

So he can play pedro as a pseudo CM but not willian? Willian's defensive nuance and energy makes him a much better option than pedro and given that he has been our player of the season, he should be the first name on the team shett

I think Luiz is genuinely injured since from the Aguero tackle he's been playing through it, the fact he hadn't even been training is clear that he's injured. He's just returned to training btw and might play a part in the run in

News flash, injuries can keep players out for 6 months, maybe more.

 

News flash - There's nothing wrong with him. He appeared recently in a BT advert. Looked fit as a fiddle to me. He's not playing because Conte fell out with him just like hr did with  Costa.

You might want to loosen your tin foil hat.

Anyway come on you Blues, let's turn up the heat on the Spuds!

Pedro did play a game as a pseudo CM though, and thats the whole point. 

Willian simply should be on the field if he is fit. 

BTW, what exactly has cesc done to be kept playing?

Why is everybody assuming Willian and Conte have fallen out? You really think Willian would have been on the bench if they fell out? No, this is just Conte switching to 3-5-2, something he has done many times this season.

I saw the lineup wrong, I thought he wasn't in the squad so I guess I overreacted... But coincidentally whenever somebody disrespects him they end up not playing the next immediate match.

But he isn't in this game as per the starting line up. Willian can come on later to mix it up depending if Hazard turns up today.

We've had people criticising Conte for playing two in the middle, and now he plays three people still moan.......

Playing 3 in the mid does not solve everything, does it. Also people were not "moaning" about playing a mid 2 but the choice of personnel who was playing in the mid 2.

Why is willian on the bench? Why is our player of the season on the bench in a must win game? How does playing bakayoko and cesc over willian help us in ANY way?

Pedro is not there today, but the fact conte made that change, and played a psuedo CM, why not play one who is more adapt in that role than pedro and infact get our best player on the bloody pitch.

Another brain fart by the Manager....really don't get how Cahill and Moses makes this team...and Willian on the bench?  Oh well as long as we get 3 points, there really is nothing else to play for...a cluster f**k at the back by Cahill should ensure Swansea at least one goal...3-1 win for the good guys.
