That back line we fielded today wouldn’t get into a top 10 team. I know why he did but, still it’s shockingly bad to see.

It seems like Conte's going through the motions himself.

The team is reflective of the manager at the moment.

The longer he delays committing to the club the more the players morale will drop.

I really don’t see the point of sticking with Conte. He ‘needs’ certain players for his preferred system but those players are either not available or we can’t afford to sign them, especially when we need 4-5 big upgrades.

As we can’t/are unlikely to get the players he wants he needs to play to his existing players strengths but he’s so stubborn that he won’t do that either.

What is the point of Conte? Football is dross, results are sliding and there’s no way we’re signing the players he wants.

Hopefully he walks.

Do you remember when we used to play football? I miss it.

Am at the point where I think we could give Conte £300m worth of talent and he's still pick 9 defenders and coach them into the ground.

Conte's intransigence is one of the many reasons that his time at clubs is so short. Players get very frustrated playing the Conte way. There's no room for creativity, spontaneity and flexibility.

Conteball might be totally natural to the Italian footballing public but over here... I am bored. Very, very bored. And getting boreder. Something needs to change because this is painful.
these back-foot managers are being left behind and as a result, so are we.

The irony when people cry out for control of midfield and we have shown we simply don't have the quality for this much of the ball. It has to be 343 so we at least have more attacking options.
Oh but we have the English De Bruyne in Skipp though? Doesnt he count as quality?

Why don't we try starting a game like we played the second half against Sporting? Get our noses in front and then we can do whatever the fuck this is to conserve energy and see the game out. Bournemouth's keeper is pony, make him work a bit ffs.

So you are arguing every single team we are playing has got better and that’s why we are so much worse? Got it. Sounds entirely sensible and I now concede Conte has no responsibility for our performances until we buy him 2 £50m players for every position. Thanks for clearing that up for me!
I'm not even arguing. And no, that's my reply to you. You are just inferring and simplifying everything from a comment I made and concluded on something I didn't even say with regards to Conte's responsibility and the transfer window. Lol

He needs to go. It's that simple.

Who do we get in? Somebody else! Just as we have for the last 140 years!

It likely is the manager’s instruction to get into that area. That isn’t doing Skipp any favor. Midfield setup is way too negative for my liking.
Agree, he's been asked to make dummy and third man runs there. Problem is that he's being passed the ball when it should be going infield behind him. Not sure what he's supposed to do with it facing the corner flag with a defender all over him.

Breaking: The United Kingdom Space Agency (UKSA) solar orbiter 'Royal' was successfully launched from Bournemouth today.

Having broken orbit after a high velocity launch from the Vitality Stadium, the 'Royal' now begins it's long journey to the stars. Godspeed UKSA Royal, the dreams of a nation are with you.

If we cannot produce a decent performance on Tuesday then big changes are needed. Losing is one thing but losing playing dull football with no fight or passion is even worse. We have suffered Mourinho, Nuno and now Conte, all of whom don’t have an attacking bone in their bodies. If we keep Conte he will just a buy more negatIve defensive players in January and make the situation even worse.
