How come you didnt complain when he said it?



Was the bold that he posted part of the discourse? How come you dont have a problem with that but you have a problem with me calling him Ikputu Onu

I saw people calling you apari, more than 4yrs ago, and you didn't chastise them. Why are you now getting worked up?

Aparis are rich. You can also call me apari, to make you feel better.

Skimpledawg:
My bad, if I had seen that Egbon, I woulda called him out for it.
Sincerely, we enjoy you both vast knowledge of the soccer game.
Some of us come here to learn new things about football, not to see grown up men call themselves names. Not just cool.
Let it go ejoo

You know very well that I dont insult people but many have taken that liberty to think they can insult me and get away with it

I discuss football strictly, the posters that are intellectually inferior and cant match my football knowledge are the ones who resort to insult and maybe posting pictures

Leave your egbon alone. If he likes he should add picture to that ikputu whatever, i will just click 'report' and claim he posts my picture without permission.

Conte said: ‘I don’t know if my ambition is shared by the club.


Conte: ‘I have great ambition but I don’t have money to spend for Chelsea,’ he added.

Conte : "I have to learn a lot from the other coaches, the other managers, in that aspect. I have to speak more with the managers who are very, very good at persuading their clubs to spend money to buy top players."

Conte: ‘Then, in the future, if there is the possibility, you have to try to buy only two or three players – not eight players.

Conte: “Manchester City had the possibility to spend a lot of money, when you link these two situations – a good manager and much money to spend in the transfer market – and have the same ambition, this is the final result,”

Lordfalcao, these are some of Conte's statements on transfers. This should reduce the amount of unneccessary questions and arguments you may want to start in future about Conte and transfers.

That's pretty bad. This kinda thing hurts and kills morale of the player (Eriksen)

meanwhile in other news, I've just seen that GQ interview of Skepta and Naomi Campbell.

Things must either be really desperate, or Skepta must be supplying her some grade A cocaina straight from the columbian jungle.

This broad has been nacking billionaires her whole life...and now she's with Skepta?

At least the guy became an Ijebu chief recently so there's that, but this is the biggest downgrade ever.

Ibime shey na tre say na the board go sign everyone of the players since summer

Morata Bakayoko Palmieri Barkley Zapacosta Drinkwater Cabalero Rudiger and Conte had no input

Full speech:

“From the summer, the club decides every single player that comes here,” Conte said. “Sometimes I can have an impact on this, sometimes you can’t have an impact. My first task is to do my job, to be a coach, to try to improve my players. For sure, I don’t have a big impact on the transfer market.”

The ones he had an impact on are the ones I mentioned - Bakayoko, Zappacosta and Morata as 2nd choice . . . .

The ones he had zero impact and dislikes intensely are Barkley, Drinkwater.

Rudiger and Giroud were signed by the club to fill a need but he didn't recommend them specifically by name.

Emerson may be his recommendation as a 3rd or 4th choice. I am still fact-finding on that one.

And of course for outgoings, you have Matic which he vehemently opposed.

All these are conjectures and working towards the answer

Once you buy Bakayoko for 40M which I presume to start, that effectively takes away Matics minute. And Matic sought to move to a place he is guaranteed minutes not where he will be rotating with Bakayoko and Fabregas

Just like Matics arrival meant the death of Herrera as a starter

This is why you should keep quiet when fans are discussing their own team cos you can only ever scratch the surface being an outsider cos you don't follow the team. Conte said and I quote - I brought in Bakayoko to sit behind Matic and learn from him.

Matic was Conte first choice, Bakayoko was substitute. The bad mood Conte has been in all season started with Matic sale which put him on warpath.

It does not make a difference if they are ex footballers or not. Many clubs dont even have ex footballers in any role

Real Madrid Florentino Perez is the President He is a civil Engineer and a politician. No Sporting director. So all decisions are between Perez and Zidane

Man Utd Glazer businessmen, Ed Woodward accountant. Mourinho coach. No Sorting director, So all decisions of the board are taken by non footballers

Now that Emenalo is out of the quartet Its now Roman, marina and Conte, Which of them has football knowledge you are alluding to Emenalo when he was there to make him shoulder all the blame

Woodward defers to Mourinho technical knowledge and recommendations except where there is budgetary constraint.

Emenalo was that technical knowledge especially in times where the board had no respect for the manager - particularly RDM and Benitez time when he was handed a warchest and phucked it up by not balancing the team.

As the managers became stronger and more prestigious (Mourinho and Conte), transfers became more of a negotiation process. Mourinho and Contes problem with the board was budgetary (not enough funds for their targets), and Emenalo has little to do with their problems.

As for Perez, he was the original Emenalo - a fool who buy 100 Galacticos and leave the team without midfield, selling Makelele without replacement and turning a team of superstar attackers into an unbalanced pile of wánk. Left to Perez, you would never see a player like Casemiro in Madrid cos he just does not look at those sort of players. Him and Emenalo share a special brand of stüpidity. He should thank God Zidane has been able to work around him and give the team what it needs here and there despite his unhelpful interferences.


If Zidane’s support for Casemiro surprised, it should not have done. Casemiro may not be one of the president’s men but luckily for him the president does not pick the team. Not right now, at least. Among the most important regrets that Benítez will have from his time in charge of Real Madrid is listening to those “suggestions”, leaving out the man who provided him with the thing he treasures most of all: balance. It was not a regret that Zidane wished to repeat. And he had the authority and prestige to pick his own team.

Once you bring a 40M (Your highest spending on a midfielder) into a team when his direct replacement is a guy with 1year left on his deal that hasnt been renewed that is basically your replacement

If at your job as an accountant, they bring a guy in and put him on 6 figure to be your understudy, That means your days are numbered,
Matic simply knew he was no longer wanted no new contract, expensive understudy, Mourinho offered him a 4yrs with assured starting shirt

It was only going to end one way

Thats beside the point, the point is you do not need an ex footballer to manage the team or be in management. As shown by Perez and Woodward
Sporting director role are mainly cosmetic and for communication No real power lies with them aside to be the intermediary between the coach and board

Now Emenalo(the devil) is gone Chelsea now operates like a regular Madrid or Man Utd and every transfer had the blessing of Conte and his transfers have all been self-service this season from Zappacosta to Palmieri to Drinkwater to Barkley to Giroud to Bakkayoko

That is correct but has nothing to do with the fact that Conte saw Baka as an understudy. Conte is happy to run down Matic contract cos he does not think about finances, only football. These guys did not finish school so you can't expect them to think like we do. What the board did not do is warn Conte to look for 2 midfielders. Matic situation was sprung on him last minute as he was returning from holiday because the board had been in contact negotiations with Matic until June before negotiations went bust.

Conte basically came back from holiday and was told - You now need 2 midfielders and BTW, we have started enquiring about Drinkwater as proviso and also cos we need to meet homegrown quota as RLC, Ake and Chalobah are leaving.

That's why Conte has been treating Drinkwater unfairly. Even with the pile of wânk Bakayoko has been serving us, Bakayoko still makes the bench while Drinkwater is not even in matchday squad. In other words, Bakayoko is Contes man but Drinkwater is not. It's the same treatment he gave Batsman cos Batsman is an Emenalo signing whilst Conte was with Italy to which he had little or no input. These are insights you will not notice as an outsider unless you follow a club daily.

I actually thought it was publicity stunt so it's real? This is a dream come through for skepta as He probably had Her posters on his wall as a kid. For Naomi, it's all about that good D. Once She's had enough of it, She'll be back dating Multi Millionaires and Billionaires.

I thought they were just close friends.

Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich and Ligue 1 leaders PSG have both asked Chelsea to keep them informed if 22-year-old winger Kenedy becomes available for transfer. The Brazilian is currently on loan at Newcastle. (Sky Sports)


Apart from some concerning attitude problems, I've always maintained that Kenedy is more than good enough for the LWB role. A lot of times we go looking for solutions that are already in our youth team eg Ake etc.

Christensen should be thanking his stars that Chelsea somehow deem him good enough for the first team.

Youth integration has never been our thing. We have always relied on the big names over the years.

Sadly, we aren't working with the top players now neither are we with the youth. We have resorted to making mediocres popular.

He may have settled for Zappacosta as 2nd choice behind Moses, yes. It's partly his fault for aiming too high for Kyle Walker, then after Oxlade rejected Chelsea, Zappa came to the fore. He could have saved all this trouble by opting for Toljan to start with. Same for Andy Robertson on the left side instead of Sandro.

if aiming for Kyle is now aiming too high for Chelsea, then is better Roman sells the club to someone with the money to do business and compete with top clubs or start promoting our academy products and forget about having high expectations and just become like Tottenham.

These people are out to fry Zuckerberg.

Oga Ibime, I find it funny that you continue to argue with raumdeuter on this transfer matter.
The man knows the truth, but he wants to make it look like Conte has the same freedom like fraudiola to point and kill so that he can use against conte in his subsequent ridiculous arguments. I know his way.
