Levy will probably dump Conte this week.

Conte looked a bit nonplussed towards the end not like him at all.

Joe Lewis trading as Levy is the problem.

Even though Conte guided the club into the Champions League last season, he described that achievement as a "miracle" and insisted he will continue to be realistic with the club.

"I know what is the reality because I am the coach," he said.

"The club knows very well what are my thoughts on the situation. The situation was very clear. I continue to work and to improve and to help you to improve the club, to create a solid foundation and then to develop.

"You have to know that there are clubs who can invest £200m or £300m and others with different policies and I repeat you have to respect the policy.

"The policy has to be very clear with all people otherwise we created a situation that's not positive for the environment to create expectations that are not realistic, honestly.

"I was expecting this moment. Now we have to start to fight strong, because the situation in this league you can slip quickly.

"If you ask me if I'm scared, I'm not scared. I believe in my work, I believe in these players, but don't ask me for things I cannot promise you."

Conte has invested 200 to 300 million and made them worse.

Cucurella looks out of his depth at Chelsea. He had one season at Brighton and Chelsea paid 50m.

The quality and money City of bench are big reason they'll win league.

I think potter seems a bit out of his depth too.

Hard to know. Chelsea have a heap of players running down contracts, another handful who haven't settled into English football (Pulisic, Ziyech, Havertz) and had just bought in a few players (Aubameyang, Sterling) hardly renowned for their team ethic. There's a lot of talent in their squad but there would be easier challenges out there than moulding them into a team.

And as it's Chelsea he will be gone by the summer and we never will know for sure!

Turning into a 2 horse race now, City out of the capital with 3 points, they didn't actually have a shot till the 32 minute!

It's all down to how Arsenal do in their next game.. Spurs would hate to hand them 3 points

Probably is. They had some good results in Europe but they have been very poor in the League. He brought on a few young players who gave mo,re then some of the egos like Aubameyang.

Chelsea with 9 players out injured and Potter has adopted a squad that needs overhauled. I'm not sure it's going to work out but he needs time.
