Abramovich is a muppet, he made a mistake getting rid of JM in his first term,Ancelotti and now Conte could walk because of him.
Chelsea under Conte | Let's sign the next Hazard, literally.
- Thread starter Gandalf Greyhame
- Start date
Has @duffer changed Chelsea thread's title to 'disCONTEnt' yet?
Surely this wont happen?! Will be funny if it does though.
Quick, Roman, spend 100m on Lukaku tomorrow to calm the dude down a bit.
I'd go £150m, show him you mean business.
This would be fecking hilarious to be fair.
That place is run like a circus. Tbf though it's bought them continued success, so fair play.
Castles is a very good journo if you can see past his objectivity or lack there of.
Obviously he's just putting pressure on Roman to spend, to ensure they aren't left behind by their rivals. It's nothing crazy like him contemplating resigning, imo.
I wonder will Emenalo call him by his name in statement after he's sacked?
About 170,they can get Morata and Lukaku
Chelsea under Conte - palpable discord, again?
Would be absolutely hilarious if Conte left over that, though it's definitely not going to happen.
You never know. Chelsea like to shoot themselves in the foot, it is known. Plus, Conte doesn't seem like the type to take any shit.
Who would they get to replace him?
Reports are saying Tuchel.
Article was saying possibly Tuchel.
I am sure Everton is praying they still do else i have no idea where the toffees will find the money to pay for all their new signings. They have already spent £50m+ on Pickford and Klaassen
They have a model similar to Real Madrid. Circus but it works
And getting him players like Bakayoko & Lukaku, who possess rather average ball handling skills? Doesn't sound like a good idea for him or Chelsea, who'd soon have another discontent coach (and he can be quite petulant).
I just hope these reports are bullshit, but they don't come out of nowhere tbh.

It'll be ridiculous if he leaves because of Lukaku. 
my dad is fuming lol. Reckons it's much ado about nothing and just an indirect nudge to abramovich to spend some cash
Your dad is Conte?
Conte strikes me as a bit of a mentalist. Only a matter of time between him and Roman get into an inevitable handbags.

Conte wants Lukaku, the board doesn't want to spend €90M on him.
It'll be more specifically the club not being proactive enough in the transfer market in general rather than just one player. It's the same frustration Jose had the summer before it all went tits upIt'll be ridiculous if he leaves because of Lukaku.
What I would say is Chelsea aren't the only club struggling to do business this summer, everyone got a little too ahead of themselves getting caught up in City's early business and now even they've hit a brick wall with their moves for the likes of Mendy and Walker
̶T̶h̶e̶ ̶R̶u̶s̶s̶i̶a̶n̶ ̶g̶a̶n̶g̶s̶t̶e̶r Roman Abramovich is like a modern day George Steinbrenner (granted far more wealthier and crooked).
Rumours in both British and foreign press that his relationship with the board isn't the best.

lol. nah big chelsea fan
Its been like this for a while, Abramovich has been spending responsibly trying to get things under order at Chelsea after pumping loads of money into the club.
The only problem is that there are two other teams in the League that can spend £100 million net every season without a hitch.

Conte's point of view: Costa is a liability and could implode at any point in the season
Chelsea's POV: a new DC, DML, DMR & CM are priorities and probably cost upwards of 120M - work with Costa and Batshuayi

They have the money though. Didn't they sell Oscar for crazy money? They made the most in the premier league from TV revenue and obviously winning it.
"The individual"
Theyve had a small net spend in the past few years.
They already spent the Oscar money on their incomings in the season just gone, since Oscar left in January they would have taken his fee into account for the season.
I wouldnt be surprised if Chelsea have an underwhelming transfer season and they underperform as a result. Transfers have been a problem for Mourinho and Ancelotti at Chelsea.
This would be one of the most bizarre decisions by Abramovich if it does happen. Conte is a brilliant manager and practically anyone that they get in his place will not be as good. As a rival fan, I hope he goes, but if I was a Chelsea fan, I'd be fuming
Don't know these abbrevations, what do they mean? (Edit: okay, probably central defender & wing-backs)
All in all it sounds like a reasonable explanation for possible differences on the transfer strategy - where did you get that from?

You must not know Abramovich that well
They lack cover in all those positions - along with rumours throughout the season that Conte wanted to improve the wide areas, or atleast get some rotation.
They've been linked with Bakayoko(DM), Alex Sandro(DML), Dani Alves(DMR) amongst other players.
DML and DMR are probably not the correct abbreviations to use
Nothing like a good ol' public spat to drive a players price up.
