Chelsea are currently 21 points behind the leading Man City, ranked 4th in the fierce competition for the top spot for C1 tickets along with MU, Liverpool and Tottenham. It is not excluded that the team may have to "fall" to the much less famous playing field, the Europa League.
In addition, The Blues were also eliminated by Arsenal in the League Cup semi-finals. Ahead of them is a tough challenge in the Champions League, facing Barca in the knockout round...
Abramovich is famous for his ruthlessness in firing generals and has never shown mercy to anyone. Mourinho has experienced this unpleasant feeling twice, along with a series of other famous coaches, including Ancelotti.
The Russians were reportedly very upset with Conte, who complained about not being able to decide on purchases, and the "backstage" issues that made it difficult to cooperate with his team. Chelsea chose former Barca coach Luis Enrique to replace him.
Conte was invited back by the Italian Football Federation, along with information that Real chose him as a candidate to replace Zidane. There is news that Conte plotted to bring 3 Chelsea stars to Bernabeu, including Hazard, Thibaut Courtois and Cesar Azpilicueta.
