Without more signings Conte could face chop
two senior players get sent off in the first game of the season. We can debate whether Gary Cahill’s challenge on Steven Defour warranted a red card but the defender did not protest. When things are going wrong, you need experienced players to keep their heads but Cesc Fabregas acted idiotically when Chelsea had got themselves back in the game. Now an already threadbare squad will be without these two players when Chelsea face Tottenham at Wembley on Sunday. Conte desperately needs more players in the next couple of weeks. If he does not get them, there could well be a change of manager at Stamford Bridge.
