Have to admit Conte hasn’t done himself any favours by indulging in a public handbagging session with Jose, employing Sven Erickson’s guide to tactical substitutions, and his general defeatist attitude during this season. While I’m inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt, he has to seriously “pull his head in” and stop this blubbering because I’m over it.
This is spot on, he started out trying to prove a point about his squad depth, but took it way too far in a pretty dumb way and the team payed the price. Only answer is to sort out problems with RA, if that's possible now, and put some zip back into equation.
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has suggested his first 100 games in charge of the club have been better than the same number under the Stamford Bridge outfit's former manager Jose Mourinho. (Telegraph) Honestly, Conte has more bitterness towards Mourhino than Pixie has towards me! Unbelievable!
If our players win all our remaining games we have very good chance to top the Spuds. This was only possible after HIAG tempted fate by those fatal statements few days ago. Blessing came through Alonso's ban thanks to HIAG. It was improbable but HIAG helped it with his excellent jinx. Top 4 back on inspite of Tony's worst efforts. Leicester can return us the favor. Baggies will play for the pride. If we win all 4 games, 4th spot is ours. Simples!!
And if Spurs win all their 4 games, 4th spot is theirs. Also simple. Trouble is nothing in football is simple, if it was everyone would always win. All we can do is win our games, but it's a long shot to overtake Spurs.
Reluctantly I have to agree - the point is we have it a bit late with very little room for error I suspect that we will miss out due to our dreadful form since January, as you put we can keep winning but it’s Spuds who are 5 Pts ahead and it’s theirs to lose.
You should be looking more at Liverpool, you have a game in hand over them and still have to play them.
I’m more hopeful than some here, Spurs have lost the plot and doing their annual bottle job. The manager seems clueless and the players mentally shot. Two losses at home on the bounce and a draw against the mighty Brighton tells the story. WBA on the horizon and they have beaten United and drew with Liverpool.
If anyone is going to bottle it, then its Spurs. Still not convinved though, we just need to win all our games and hope for the best. Still Spurs' to lose
Spurs have got some great fixtures left, they should be fine. If we can keep winning and beat Liverpool though we might sneak in.
