A jokes a joke but c'mon, we're all friends here.

In news that everyone pretty much knew ages ago, Conte has been named the new Chelsea manager and has a 3 year deal that will begin following the euros.

That was nearly as telegraphed as Klopp to Liverpool. >_>

Much like 2013 then.

Man, I wish we would hurry up and get to the inevitable Everton cup defeat so I can stop paying any attention to football for this season fully.

That said, I am up to 2nd in the EWB Fantasy League (I'm sure of the 30 odd people in it I'm the only one who still cares) and I'm winning my friends money league, but when that is the highlight of the campaign it says a lot for my teams fortunes.

WES MORGAN! 

Harry Redknapp wrote an article calling for Wes Morgan to be called up into the England squad for Euro 2016.

Wes Morgan has 25 caps for Jamaica.

Di Stefano changed international teams. Twice!

[Benji]

Two years ago today Leicester were top of the Championship and had guaranteed promotion. Two years later, the core of the squad is still there and we're seven points clear with six games to go. This still feels totally fucking surreal.

I can't believe we nearly appointed that goober to the national job a few years ago.

[brenchill]

To be fair, I don't think he would have done any worse than Hodgson.

[Colly]

He'd have walked out in disgust within a week when they told him he couldn't sign Nico Krancjar.

[Adam]

We'd be going to the Euros with Rio Ferdinand in the back four and Peter Crouch in the squad up front, so I think I prefer Roy.

I approve.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Sounds like exactly what we need.

[stokeriño]

TBH the more I read about Conte's personality, the more he sounds like Mourinho.

...Not sure if this is good or bad at this stage.  

[MDK]

It that kind of modern, out of the box thinking that we need more of in English football!

[Noah]

How long before the first exceedingly clever sports journalist refers to him as a bit of a conte?
