Are any other Chelsea fans really optimistic about out upcoming season?
Bringing in Conte gives me so much hope, and seeing how he sets up with Italy is honestly so exciting for us.

Very defensively solid, compact, with great counter attacking and calm attacking play.
Really what Chelsea need to return to.

Just a few decent signings and I'm confident on us as title contenders again

I agree it sounds ridiculous, but in the current climate it's not actually that bad. When Watford are rejecting £25m bids for Deeney, £45m for a defender who could potentially be world-class isn't actually bad value.

Deeney is a proven goalscorer in the Premier league tho, sure so was Bony and Benteke but they weren't played to their strengths when they where played at the next club.
If Bailly is worth £30 mil after a good consistent season, Stones shouldn't be worth more than £35 even with the British youth shit.

I honestly think the whole Mourinho collapse was largely in part due to him disrespecting Eva Carneiro.
I think the players really lost faith and respect him after that.

Also, Conte being successful in the Euros means the players are likely to be more willing to subscribe to his winning tactics.

I'd rather a complete overhaul of the first team than losing Conte, seriously. If this team can't perform under Conte, I want alot of the big prima donnas in our squad out.

Also there isnt going to be an overhaul, conte was hired as the first team coach, thats how the club even announced it, he will have hardly any influence over transfers.

Money most likely, Hazard and Pogba are both estimated at around 70-80 million so Real Madrid can't afford both without fucking their finances over.

Why are Utd signing a literally who striker?
>>
>>69115755
Rooney will be in the first XI to the detriment of the rest of the team m8. There is no way he is on the bench or rotated. The last times he was put on the bench or had his place in the team threathened he put in a transfer request.

I'm convinced with his most recent contract he had a "must play x% of games as a starter" clause. For the whole of 2015 he was so woefully and utterly abject that it really made me question if Van Gaal was being forced to keep him in the team.

Shit midfielder. Shit striker.

https://twitter.com/SportPuntz/status/748081080859758592

look at this fucking shit.
>>
>>69115832
Hazard is our best player by far lad, he started coming to life at the end of the season. Although I do agree about Oscar, he hasn't improved since we signed him.
>>
>>69115855
Both holding midfield? Or did lahm go back to a full back?
>>
>>69115875
Pure marketing.
They're going to China at the behest of Adidas and Chevrolet to sell shirts back to the people who make them.
>>
>>69115504
Utterly impossible. If Pogba joins United I'll get God save the Queen tattoed on my cock.
>>
>>69114960
Free transfer, and Schalke were pretty good for most of the time that Matip was there (top 15 in UEFA's club rankings, usually finished anywhere from 3rd to 5th in the Bundesliga). I don't know how much of that is thanks to him, but he's no scrub.
>>
>>69115871
they should respect the club they play for, if he wants out then fine he should have his agent make contact with other clubs and talk to the chelsea board whatever do it behind closed doors but dont talk massive shit every chance you get to anyone with a microphone about how you want out

>>
>>69115832
yeah i echo your thoughts exactly.
i was really hopeful of a complete squad overhaul, because it's obvious our squad is stale and mentally weak, but it's clear the board would rather sack manager after manager before they ever alter the squad.

I just hope Conte gives them a kick up the ass and the board stand behind Conte.

I say this with hope rather than expectation though, as the board are spineless fucks, especially Emenalo.

It's amazing what an impact a manager can have on a player. Just look at Kane without Pochettino or Gotze without Klopp.

Yes. Good thing too. He was pretty mediocre in midfield.

Oh, I know; I just assumed his staff at Chelsea would be working overtime for him since he's been occupied with the Euros. Just seems odd that Chelsea have been very quiet so far. Though I am expecting we'll see a lot of Serie A talent come in, though.

>>69115893
Hazard is... Well, hit or miss. He has good days, and bad days, with more bad days than good. He really is someone who should have been sold ages ago, but they opted for people like Schurrle, Mata, KDB, and Lukaku... Which I'll never understand. Hazard is extremely overrated, much like Courtois.

>>69115940
I hope so, too, anon. Especially considering last year, every team strengthened their squad, Chelsea stayed quiet in the market. This year, everyone is buying more and more, and Chelsea is staying quiet.

Has me worried.

>>69115959
That's another problem. Instead of selling... Marin, for example, they just keep loaning him out. A lot of youth players, sure, but tons of players that just need to be cut and shipped out.
>>
>>69115965
give examples, and no saying you probably wont end your career at a club when you have 3 years left on your contract. are one of the most highly touted gk in the game at fucking 24 at a club that literally imploded

Literally all Rooney is good for is spamming pointless diagonal floaters to Antonio Valencia. Retards then complement his "passing range" and compare him to Paul Scholes. It infuriates me.

Sterling has been mercilessly criticised to the point where it's actually bullying, what are you talking about?
>>
>>69116105
>complement
and they're not pointless, they open up the pitch and allow you to play through narrow teams. coincidently the type of teams england played against in all their games.
>>
>>69116115
Its not about the individual goals, its about the bigger problems with the English NT as a whole.

Also, I think Sterling's been given so much shit (rightfully) that people are just starting to get bored

>>69116077
aging Spanish winger/attacking midfielder that had a great season at Celta before getting injured.

he performed well enough to start for Spain

good player but bordering on 'past it'. still a solid bench option.

he's a fucking winger/inside forward you unintelligent shithead

>Hazard is... Well, hit or miss. He has good days, and bad days, with more bad days than good. He really is someone who should have been sold ages ago, but they opted for people like Schurrle, Mata, KDB, and Lukaku... Which I'll never understand. Hazard is extremely overrated, much like Courtois.

Hazard dragged us to the title almost single handedly in the second part of the season. Sure last season he was crap but then so was the most of our team. Give him this season and if he still performs poorly then sell him. He is by far the most talented player in our squad.
>>
>>69116151
That's probably because everyone has been giving him shit for the Man City move for over a year now.

Wolves takeover by Chinese billionaire Robin Li (Baidu) is imminent. Julen Lopetegui to be announced as next manager. He even launched an english language website in a black and gold color scheme... http://julenlopetegui.com/en/

>>69116148
go watch iceland's second goal, he didn't track the fullback. i didn't criticise sterling at all but for that goal he was way at fault. it was like he said lol i don't want to defend, wanna play up front and left him.

>>69116151
fair enough. but when the pundits were analysing the goals, none of them mentioned sterling.
>>
>>69116105
he'll have one decent game in midfield which gets met with an influx of "is rooney's future in midfield?!?" before being complete shit in the next

he'll stay for one more season I reckon, just enough time for him to get the all time utd top scorer record

Seeing as Wolves will have one of the wealthiest owners in england, it won't be that bad will it?
>>
>>69116222
Talented? Sure. Most talented player in our squad? Also true, but it doesn't help that we traded our actual talent who flourished at other BPL clubs. I mean, Terry+Cahill was the best CB partnership in the BPL in '14, and in '16, both looked like strangers. I'm willing to give Hazard another chance, but I'd still rather send him on his way and bring back Mata.
>>
>>69116149
They are pointless because they're fucking easy to intercept and defend because they hang in the air for a half hour before reaching their target. The key to opening up low black teams is fast paced, accurate passing that draws defenders out of position. Rooney has no in game intelligence and struggles massively to dictate things. His passing, strangely, seems to get more accurate the longer the distance the ball travels.

Finished as a striker and now United are having to facilitate his aborted attempts to be Paul Scholes. Ferguson was on the verge of binning him before he retired before that cuck Moyes bent over for him.
>>

>I'd still rather send him on his way and bring back Mata.

maybe the board can convince Mourinho to swap Oscar and Mata because

You just know the Chinese billionaire took over Wolves because their logo is a Wolf, and their names is "Wolves".

Oriental countries go crazy over that kind of aesthetic, it's like what Vincent Tan tried to do with Cardiff, with the whole dragon rebranding
>>
>>69116281
wealthy owners =/= instant success

you need a good board, good scouts and a sound structure in place

I don't know if Wolves have that, if so, good for them. Lopetegui was sacked for being shit but surely he can do okay with them.

Difference is, Wolves' brand is already in place.

Strong brand + long history = easy to market

He's not going to need to do silly renaming or color changes like Hull or Cardiff.

>>
>>69116240
iceland got 3-4 passes off on the edge of the box, rooney was nowhere near, dier and alli were statues

if rooney had closed down their midfielder, then rose could have stayed in the defensive line

apart from winning the penalty, he didnt play well, but placing the blame solely on sterling would be a bit silly
>>
>>69116348
I think there's a good chance that Schweinsteiger will join an MLS club this summer.

>>
>>69116301
>paced, accurate passing that draws defenders out of position
you want to play long passes against narrows teams because obviously short passes will play the ball into congested areas. then there will be more space on the inside of the pitch. also, long diagonals can have a direct effect in that they allow wingers to go 1v1 against the opposing team's fullbacks.
>>
>>69116396
>I forgot he was even at Utd.
He's only played a handful of games for them, I think. He's spent almost the complete season lying about because he was injured.

I hope he'll announce his retirement from the German national team after we've won the cup.
>>
>>69116396

rooney to wolves?
>>
>>69115476
The players are treated like they're bigger and in control of the club. You'll have to actually stand up to them if you don't want Hazard using you as a stepping stool or other cunts chatting shit.
>>
>>69116348
Our window isn't quite open yet, plus our league has such heavy restrictions and caps, that we literally won't see any big name transfers this summer. Expect to see a lot of interleague transfers, though.

>>69116305
I'd be alright with this move.
>>
Who /Joseba Etxeberria/ here?
>>
>>69116418
Bastian is finished. He's overweight and perpetually injured. He spent most of last season travelling around Germany and taking the piss because he was LVG's favorite. He should fuck off to China or MLS.
>>
>>69116418
who would become NT vice captain?
boateng? hummelshit or kroos/khedira?
>>
>>69116372
why would rooney do that? the winger should be picked up by rose or sterling. like ryan giggs said, it should have been fullback to fullback so that the winger doesn't have to run 20 yards back but failing that sterling should have stayed with the fullback.

you can see smalling motioning to sterling to get back in line but he doesn't do it. this meant smalling had to pick up the fullback and iceland's forwards had more space.
>>
>>69116491
Ozil.

>>muh tracking back
you realize that tracking back meme only existed because mourinho got oscshit to actually do something while he was there, if you watched oscar play at all after mourinho left all he does is try to dribble past everyone, lose possession and dive for a free kick and sit on the ground raising his hands and complaining towards the ref while the team scrambles back to defend the counter attack

literally every time
>>
>>69116491
gotta be Höwedes

>>69116527
Sosa what is your obsession with shitting on Oscar and Hazard? The latter is one of the best players in the world ffs.
>>
>>69116527
he unironically dropped based Juan to play Oscar

absolute madman
>>
>>69116491
Probably Neuer or Müller. Maybe Hummels or Kroos.

Never Özil, Khedira or Boateng.
>>
deeney signs 5 year deal
>>
mata was sold because he couldn't press, not because he couldn't track back.it's not difficult to track your man back if you are a no. 10, it's not like playing out wide.
>>
>>69116538
>le ebin sosa meme

my problem with hazard is he hardly gave a shit for 80% of the season when we needed him, he wouldnt take on any players and was as passive as you could possibly get on the pitch without being accused of outright mutiny or something

oscar is simply shit and hasnt improved at all since we signed him and is taking up playtime from younger players with more potential
>>
>>69115328
in fairness he did well with a meh team, then the players stop giving a fuck/cashley sold all their decent ones and surprise surprise, they did shit and blamed him. no wonder he cucks them non stop

Neuer would be Captain not vice Captain

Nah Pardrew is a shit manager regardless. Palace was painful to watch for most of this season.
>>
Oscar is crystal palace tier
>>
>>69116640
anybody's worst nightmare. attacks start from the back, so you need someone who can defend. also, if you are trying to control the game, you need to to have someone who can apply pressure.

>>69116651
not if mourinho plays 4-2-3-1, he's not a good enough defensively as a no. 10 or as a winger.
