Having Cahill and Luiz at the heart of your defence, whilst persisting with a past-it Ivanovic at RB is absolutely criminal. I'm not complaining, though!
Conte's not addressed Chelsea's problems. They have defenders and central midfielders who have got older together. They have nobody to do the running especially against teams like Arsenal (and Liverpool last week), who will look to drag players out of position and run into the spaces created. Leicester rode the crest of a wave last season. They got into a position where they could win the title and the players gave everything; Morgan and Huth seemed to be in the right place all the time to block every shot - and they were well protected by Kante and Drinkwater. Today they played without that same intensity and when they went a couple of goals down, it's as if they subconsciously eased off to save energy for their CL game in midweek.
Conte's got a lot to learn regarding the differences between Italian football and ours. I cannot believe he recruited Luiz. He's an Italian for Christ's sake. They invented defending. That'll be an Emenalo purchase as will Alonso. Not top 4 quality either of them. Chucking in a new manager every season when Terry, Lampard and Drogba ran the dressing room was one thing. Doing it with Fabregas, Hazard and Costa is something altogether ****ter!
The interviewer asked Poch "Should you have won by more goals?" I rest my case gentlemen. Chelsea are at Hull next week so should win so Spurs must get a point at City.
Sunderland 2-0 up at home with half an hour to go, lose 2-3. That is unforgivably bad and without question confirms in my mind that they'll finally drop this year.
Yet they were holding City to a draw on the first day of the season which made me think they'd be alright.
Saving a few bob on signing Yann M'Villa and Yedlin could cost them the best part of £50-100m next season.
you lot scraping another few points has taken the gloss off what was otherwise a very unflattering 5-1 home win, we couldve easily had 7 in the 1st half against hull, i know youre afraid @Hoddle Is A God @Spurlock @NowsufferinginSpain
not bad mate just chilling out after last night going through 5 tickets about 12 pints and a lithuanian barmaid who i wont name because i cant remember it. hows yours?
More sedate, mate. The rock 'n roll years are, unfortunately, over. But, suffice to say, been there, done that!... Couple of pints and then out for a very nice curry with my lady.
Enjoy mate, i do enjoy a curry myself im a big fan of spicy food, tom yum, vindaloo, and green curry being a few favorites
