A wonderful gesture by him but l am not surprised as he has done some lovely kind gestures before.

Oh dear the crisis and the agony continues unabated for the red part of Manchester while their big city rivals continue to dine at the top table.:)

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

At least they are at the lower table, just remind me what European table Liverpool are dining at this season. :p:

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Yeah it must be agonizing for them being joint top. :D

Chelsea making a statement. Eden Hazard is back. Those stats are ridiculous, there was no game here, this is a lopsided demolition. Everton are yet to strike the ball... When Hazard is firing on all cylinders he's the best player in the Premier League by a mile.

Conte was certainly one of the good managerial appointments during the pre season.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

They've looked just as awful at times, I don't think Conte deserves all of it, it's been a case of the players picking themselves up and an argument of no European football. Something which Mourinho is once again struggling to cope with.

Teams in Spain/Germany/Italy/France can all cope with it but it seems to be coming a struggle for teams in England a lot more now. It shouldn't but I think it's just down to this league being more competitive than any of the others. Barcelona can play midweek then easily shift 8 players around and still do a number over some minnow at the weekend. We might have had that same luxury at one point but even the bottom half of the Premier League are finding themselves with far bigger spending power than many of the top half teams of those other leagues. Just look at how much Newcastle can afford to spend in the Championship. One of the biggest wage bills in England undoubtedly nevermind the Championship alone. Speaking of which, we stay rooted top as we cruise to our 7th win in a row. #TheChampionshipIsHard

Sorry but Chelsea were a utter shambles last season and what Conte has done is that he has got them playing as a cohesive unit again which takes some doing after the disasters of last season.
