Conte

Chelsea supporters in the Transfer Tavern are getting to grips as Antonio Conte starts to find a consistent XI.

After what was a summer full of recruiting for Antonio Conte as he looks to compete with signings made at title competitors Manchester City and United, it looked as if he had strengthened in all the right areas as they look to push for a repeat of last season.

Many punters here in the Tavern believe that after Premier League glory last season, with them not qualifying for the Champions League the previous season that allowed them an extra focus on the Premier League. So with this in mind, strength in depth and added quality is a must in order to compete with Europe’s best.

Additions such as; Tiemoue Bakayoko and Danny Drinkwater to the midfield ranks has enabled for a real strength in depth to take some added weight of the forever energized N’Golo Kante and the passing maestro Cesc Fabregas. Along with the Tavern’s new favourite £70 million-rated man, Alvaro Morata, who looks to fill the shooting boots of the forever reliable Diego Costa. The last couple of additions made to sure up the back line were Antonio Rudiger and Davide Zappacosta as the Blues look to really push for glory once again this season.

With all signings having been made the Stamford Bridge locals here at the Tavern are feeling optimistic after a great start to the Champions League competition with 2 wins from 2 games, but have slipped to a measly 4th in the Premier League after a sluggish start to the season.

Here is what has to be Conte’s best starting line up right now…
