For all of Arsene's dedication to 'team' over any individual, they won't even print a proper poster with the players on it? 'Make them separate so they can easily be swapped out. It'll save us one fifth of a goal bonus.'
Did alright with three FA Cups. What did you win in the same period?
I checked with Father Time, and if Sanchez went to Liverpool but then he would've won four trophies. I asked him if that included a UEFA Cup and he said 'who bloody knows!? It's all hypothetical! But definitely four. At least four.'.

So that settles it.

He wasn't asking you a hypothetical.

And all of the Chelsea fans on here supporting our boards approach what do you think about Andy Carroll and the links to us.
Apparently Conte wants him over playing Batman. Also over playing Solanke, Traore, Tammy, Ubgo etc

Not sure why you are blaming the board, they are probably sick of all this young talent we have rotting on the vine.

If you lads don't understand what a hypothetical is, Google's just up the top of the screen for you. No need to waste thread time asking for it to be explained.
He asked how many trophies Liverpool have won in the last 4 years. I'm quite aware of what a hypothetical is.

Like I said, his three FA Cups aren't anything to sneeze at.

What did Liverpool win in the same time? UEFA Cup, anything else?

Are you? I said Sanchez made the wrong choice going to Arsenal. It's obviously just #Bantz, but Cruyff responded that he had won 3 FA Cups and asked what Liverpool had won. A bit dry, but still: #Bantz. Obviously if he had gone to Liverpool, then Arsenal would not have had him and LFC would've. We don't know what would've happened in that scenario. It's therefore a hypothetical. I replied saying as much, with #Bantz. Then you replied with #Boredom.

Liverpool didn't win Europa. They led the final with a great Studge goal, had another disallowed due to Studge waving at it with his boot, and then were overrun by Sevilla in 'a game of two halves', with a lot of people blaming Moreno (who used to play at Sevilla). The other final was League Cup v City. Semi Final loss to Villa was the best Rodgers did in a Cup. 14/15 he was apparently given Eto'o or Balo as the options to replace Suarez after Sanchez chose Arsenal, because he likes London. So a big 'if only' for the club.

I bet you Batman goes on to be a very good CF elsewhere.

Carroll, Boakye or Benteke to relplace him.
Of course he will. Batshuayi is fine as a backup striker and should’ve been utilised more by Conte. Has scored some very important goals for us and his output in Ligue 1 was only bettered by Ibra.

Conte is losing the plot.

So not really that bad an option in hindsight that he joined us - had moderate success.

Lol you're always spoiling for a fight aren't you? The simple answer was none. The end.

No way conte wants Carroll especially since he's praised Tammy for his progress and sees him as the future

Not hard to try not to be a dick though. The world ain't out to get ya.
I replied to you with a joke. SM didn't like that and replied with his signature style. Then you repeated what you said earlier. It's dull.

I doubt anyone enjoys these interactions I've recently had with you three - and Mods stepped in last time - but don't pretend it's my problem alone.

You're absolutely right, perhaps if you stopped being so antagonistic these wouldn't happen again and again? I stepped in and pointed out that he hadn't asked you a hypothetical as you seemed on your way to getting wound up and I thought by pointing out that you'd misinterpreted his question, it might save everyone another round of tears. Looks like I was wrong.

You don't have to argue everything, SM.

The same Conte who was desperate for Llorente ?

Come on this isnt a board decision.
There's a huge difference between llroernte and carolll
Conte worked with Llorente knows his ability, what he can deliver, he can trust him
The board want a cheap and feasible option for them to replace bats

TBH the board wants him to use the strikers they've spent 100m on over the last two seasons, but one of them isn't good enough for some reason.

Conte wants a big lumbering target man, not the board. This is his call.
