Say it with me

Carlo, come home

o my god

hole shite

A month? it hasn’t worked ever it’s the most baffling thing I’ve ever seen that we keep trying it despite years of evidence that it always fails

I agree. There’s no way he’s trying to keep his job with this bullshite.

I think he's too proud to walk away and wants to get paid.

What's up guys. I understand all of the hate for this team. You can blame Conte and all of the tactics and so forth, but remember Conte has said numerous times, he isn't picking the players that we bring in. That said, our roster is full of midlevel club players. It's trash. With Hazard and Kante as a rare exception, almost everyone else just isn't good enough. Courtois does little to impress me. Think about it, when is the last time he really made a spectacular save that helped? Dave is good, Luiz-not good enough, Cahill is up and down (not what you want from your captain), Alonso does ok for me. Kante and Hazard are easily the best players, Moses is just ok, Pedro looks like a chicken with his head cut off. Like he wants to be Messi but he isn't. Bakayoko plays as bad as anyone I've ever seen in a Chelsea shirt. And then we get to the striking corps. Morata is absolute trash, Bats should still be here and instead we have Arsenal want aways. Maybe we will get lucky and hang on to a top 4.

This guy has been under a rock for like 2 years and still gets it. Pretty obvious to everyone except our front office.

We've all noted the board isn't helping Conte. But Conte could just start a striker when it's clear we're going to play like a league two side without one. They're not helping him, but he's not really helping himself IMO.

I agree with all of this. I obviously have been MIA for a while and didn't go through the whole thread. I will say one of the two matches with a false 9, he had no choice. We literally didn't have a first team striker. I don't really know why we can't find a guy that can consistently bang home goals. Regardless of the striker issues, you can't give up 7 goals in two games against anyone, much less Bournemouth and Watford.

Bats was TERRIBLE

So I'm not familiar with you on here so I'll be nice. This is a terrible take. How in the world are you rating him? Off of his sub appearances? He sure stepped into Dortmund and has been banging shite in. Morata is absolute trash except for his head. Pedro is ok...that's it. He is just as likely to do something brilliant as he is to give the ball away or run around like crazy and throw a wrench in everything. I see 4th as well. I've just never seen such a blah roster at Chelsea since I've been following them. Although we do have Hazard and that dude is magical.
