Conte Internazionale Milano sack watch

Because you're completely ignoring the obvious point of the post and you're focusing instead on trivial details.

The point of his post is that Conte is a conservative coach. Now, you can choose a 3-5-2, a 4-3-3, a 9-1 formation. You can put Maradonna instead of Costa and Pélé instead of Courtois. The point remains the same, that Conte is a conservative coach with soul-sucking football.

Zidane was a conservative coach too, straight from the Lippi coaching tree. Nothing new here, it's not like we have been playing champagne football up to today. Pragmatism and efficiency won us 4 Cls in 5 years

I do not agree, and frankly given the completely wrong 'trivial details' which you used to support your 'obvious point', I suspect that you're not really familiar with Conte's qualities.

This is as nonsensical as me debating with Micecats hating on Dembélé though.
Why would I need to convince you about the qualities of your new coach? I hope you are proven right.

Conte managed to win the league with Moses playing as a wing back, he‘s going to be fine with whoever is the worst player in the first XI for Real Madrid.

Broke the record for PL wins, the record for points in Serie A. He is gonna revive Madrid. Hope they go for Raul or whoever is coaching Castilla instead.

Also because otherwise Conte would be a CL winner and not a Eurocampaigns failure
Anyway Mourinho played same in his prime

His prime is long past. Current Mou couldn't beat Valencia or Sevilla with Manchester United.

I think Conte is being vastly underrated to.

He is a surly character though lol. Never happy with anything.

3-5-2 merchant. I don't think he's ever had any success with a 4-man backline.

Also feel like Zidane is getting underrated a bit. He deserves more respect. I mean 3 CL's in a row ffs.

He won the league undefeated with a 4 man backline about 80% of the matches.

You might want to bring Costa a little closer to the halfway line. That's an offensive lineup from Conte's point of view

Terrible post from @Thimmy, as that's a Mourinho lineup. Schürrle had long left Chelsea under Conte, as had Ivanovic, and Terry never played. You're obviously clueless too about Conte's time at Chelsea since you responded so enthusiastically.

You're obviously clueless to other people's feelings, since you kill my dreams so enthusiastically

The post perfectly mirrors Conte's conservative approach. Now, you can leave it as it is or replace the players who didn't play with those who did under Conte if you want. Either way, the post makes perfect sense.

But yeah, he needs to bring Costa a little closer to the halfway line to be more accurate

How does it perfectly mirror Conte's approach when it depicts a 4-2-3-1 formation that Conte never uses? And you think Conte's Chelsea broke the record for most wins in a PL season by staying exclusively in their own half?
You talk so much about respect, you need to start giving some.

Were you being serious? I'm pretty sure that lineup was photoshopped. It's not as if I googled "actual Conte formations" and that came up

I'm just keeping it real

Where is the comunidad oficial? ready for Conte to convert Lucas into the best right wing-back in the world.

Chelsea in their title winning season were playing sub-Mou level stuff on the aesthetic scale. Utter dross. Even Chelsea fans were complaining.

He isn't some tactical genius. The fact he had no mid-week football before PL games was huge.

I don't think he's the best choice for the job but he wouldn't be terrible.

Our main eleven actually quite suited 3-5-2.

Ramos marcelo carvajal problem wil be minimalised.

Can kroos as good as pirlo in that role? 3412 with isco provably more fappable on paper. But id been quite disapointed with his vision for some time.

LOL at some of the Madrid fans who don't want Conte. reminds me of when they thought Hazard was just not good enough for their mighty attack.

Beggars can't be choosers, Conte is the only one who can save your season and put some of the inflated egos in their place.

Agree about It, he is finished.

Anyway Conte is a great coach, he 'd be a great signing for every club

Conte is a miles better coach than Floptegui. I wouldn't even be surprised if he manages to win the league, Barca and Atletico have looked very unimpressive.

Marcelo at wingback will be exciting

This year Real was going to focus on the league and who knows, now with Conte, hes good at that right? The last time Real played with a defensive style was when? Capello when they actually won the league for once Conte is gonna demand a lot from the players, so it will be interesting to see the player power vs Conte, although Ronaldo is gone now, and with the results and performance so poor, Conte may win out and the team actually kicks start perhaps?
Definitely wont rule them out, this league is never easy with the 2 Madrid teams around....

Spanish press seems to claim it is sure.
I hope it's not.

I hope yes , absolutely I don't want Conte to Milan ( I don't think GOATtuso will stay also next year)

Don't wager on Conte (even if he does join) staying/remaining into next season. So he very well may replace GoatTUSO next season .

We had Mourinho not too long ago, you know.

Well Conte's style of play may not suit us. he may have a problem managing the dressing room too.

Di Marzio reports that Solari is the favorite name to replace Lopetegui

WTF
