So we are one world class player (Matic) than last season's league title.

How many wc players Leicester had?


Wc players don't win title, Great cohesive teams win them.

Tony did Judas already by willfully playing 10 men team.


Sooner he leaves better for all.

Thank you Conte & Goodluck

Barcelona have always been a team of World Class players and they win pretty much everything year after year.
Leicester were a one off in a year when all the usual suspects flopped for various reasons.
So, I get what you say but I don't think it's as black and white as that.
I do agree though that a champion team will beat a team of champions.
Team being the operative word, from the owner to the boot cleaners.
Whatever it is, Chelsea are neither at the moment.

Dont wanna say I told you soo but...

I said during the Summer Bayakoto and Morata were a step down from Matic and Costa.

I do think if you still had those two players you would be closer to City, probably above United in the league.

I would take Conte at Arsenal as he's tactically excellent but you do have to wonder about his ability in the transfer market. Giroud would have been third choice striker at Arsenal had he stayed and he's now arguably first choice at Chelsea. He's a player I've always liked but he's never quite been consistent enough and as you saw against Barca he has habit of going missing in the big games.

Of course you are right re the 2 ins and outs. But Costa wanted out and Morata was the best we would realistically get in to replace him. He was great early doors but has struggled with injuries and form 2nd half of the season. Bakayoko has been an utter disaster so far. Seriously hoping it's first season syndrome. He's certainkly young enough to still be a good signing in the long run.
