And while we are bringing Costa back let’s bring back KDB and Salah!
I’m afraid those ships have sailed.

You nailed it mate. Keep Costa and Matic and we would of challenged this Season. Sadly Conte lost the dressing room very early with his treatment of Costa. He has also treated Luiz, Hazard and Willian the same. Add in his moaning and you now know why we have struggled. We have very very good players. The club will buy as well. Also bring back loan players who might make the grade. Just need a new Coach who can pull it all together.

I’ve stated several times that I want Conte to stay and I’m ok with being in a minority.
The way our club operates I guess he will be sacked. This coming season could be one of massive upheaval.

How many times has a manager gone for "losing the dressing room" how many complaints about tactics or over work etc. maybe just maybe there is a common denominator into why the players stop playing for different managers. if only we could figure it out. (Only my views. could easily be wrong)

BigPhil. I think you make a very point!

Maybe I feel that the common denominator is that we don't fortify the team after a successful season.
This season we let 2 core key players (Costa and Matic) leave and brought in players of unequal ability (lower ability that needed to adapt) . If we wanted to fortify the team, we would have kept Costa and Matic and brought in Bakayoko and Morata. Refusal to fortify the team also happened in Mourinho's 3rd season.

Obinna, I can understand your point and I think it has some merit but it’s not as if the club spent zero, its just about the new players not performing to expectations.
My issue is the constant changing of managers means a constant change of back room staff, potentially playing style and players.
Of course the club and fans can quite rightly point to continued success which rather blows a hole in my argument but I would love some stability.

I agree that Costa would of been invaluable this season. However his attitude throughout his Chelsea career is what caused him to go, nothing else. Would of loved to have kept Matic that was a big loss.
Again can't argue that we could of done with fortifying our team. However I still think too many of our players either have to much sway or just stir up trouble if things aren't done to their liking. It seems that when we seem unable to win the league we start to give up.

U win the EPL (which is the most competitive league on earth- where more than six teams can attract the same quality of players you have) all of a sudden you appear in everybody's wet dream. I guess the key to achieving stability with a manager would be- SUPPORT the same manager that won the EPL to fortify the team for the coming season cos everyone would want to f**k you up.

For instance if Mancity doesn't add to their squad for next season, they should wait for IT cos it ain't going to be easy for them.
