Got a busy day, hoping I can stream in the office, although I'm not expecting much. I think with the current squad a point at home vs. Roma is a victory.
sounds like Morata is back for today? Drinkwater out for up to another month possibly? depth signing hasn't really panned out so far..
Someone compared him to loic remy. Not good enough to start and always hurt when we need him. Hopefully this doesn’t become a trend with drinkwater like it did with remy
Jesus, Peres, Gonolans, and Gerson starting. Alisson will have to be superman tonight or I expect Chelsea to run a train on Roma.
Squad looks better with Morata in it for sure but our midfield without Kante looks... bad. Appears Christensen is in the CB role with David Luiz moving to the midfield. We'll see how that pans out. In positive news for all, Atletico managed only a draw against Quarabag.
my hatred for him runs deep. I wasn't surprised Chelsea was playing off of him inviting the ball to those bricks he calls feet and it cost Roma. He's the only RB or LB that can stay healthy. Rudiger played that position a ton last year :(.
There is something wrong. No attempt to possess. Conte looks fucking miserable. Lucky to even be in this
Conte got 2 of the 10 players he wanted last 2 seasons in the transfer market. He’s gone whether it’s at the end of the season or sooner.
Most inconsistent Chelsea team ever? Best Chelsea performance in years against Atlético and some quality games against spurs and stoke and then just complete shit for half of the other games.
Yeah. In a sense, I feel bad for him. This is the exact scenario he warned of in August with injuries and the fixture crunch and we made a couple of lame attempt signings. Hope he gets what he wants in January but that's unlikely to happen.
This is the most frustrating part. He nailed our biggest weakness and wasn't able to fix. Now he's enduring the exact thing he was trying to prevent. I would be pissed off too.
“I like to be honest. For sure I didn’t like the type of football that we did for a lot of the game. “It’s right to take responsibility for this. I tried with one hand to protect my team to become more solid, and move a central defender into midfield, Luiz. On the other hand, we totally lost our style of football. I didn’t like this. “In the end I think the result was fair. We were 2-0 up but we weren’t in control of the game and it’s right to take the responsibility for this. Sometimes you have to find the right solution to try to protect your team. Sometimes it’s good, sometimes it’s bad. “When we switched back to our system, we pushed deeper, we had chances and in some instances we played good football. “You know our situation very well. It was good to draw because Roma deserved this result. I have to praise my players because they showed me a big effort, a big commitment tonight otherwise we lose the game.” -Antonio Conte; source: Chelsea FC Got this from https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation...eague-post-match-reaction-conte-quotes-errors
