Conte would have known Levy didn't spend money so ditto for him. Weird situationLevy knew that conte would want to spend money (and we all know that we need new players here) so if he wasn't going to give him money why go into talks ?

You mean when Poch said we need a rebuild and it didn’t happen. He was even public with the painful decisions need to be taken. Levy tried to muddle on and her we are todayI think Poch is a good coach, but I don't think he worked miracles. When he had quality players at their peak, he produced excellent results (ok, no trophies, but we were right up there). When we had less quality to work with, the results went south (and I am talking about the league. Our Champions League final appearance was a very lucky cup run imo, we could/should have gone out at the group stage/quarters/semis etc.)
I mean Poch's peak team was prob something like:
lloris
walker-toby-jan-rose
wanyama-dembele
eriksen-dele-son
kane
That's just a team of really good players (when they were at an age of peak performance). It's not a miracle to have that team up there, they should be right up there. The mistake was not continuing to give Poch the quality as the likes of Dembele, Vertonghen etc declined, but we all know that I suppose.
Whether we wanted him or not, that's not the point here. The point is that its clear that Conte is ambitious and wanted assurances over our ambition and the kitty he has available to try and compete.Up until a week ago, Conte had 3 votes on this poll. 3!
And now your all pissed it's looking doubtful?
Fans didn't want him because his reluctance to built youth and his demanding and controlling style. So if Levy has rejected on this basis, he has done exactly what you wanted!!!
Climbing the football ladder can't be done quickly. It takes time. Be patient and enjoy the football. Its much more fun being the underdog.
Nothing got to do with papers and twitter. I use my eyes and trust that.We know how soft modern footballers are.... Do we? Really? Or do you just believe everything you see in papers and Twitter?
Tell me more. You see some.pkayers feign I jury or do they just 'look soft'?Nothing got to do with papers and twitter. I use my eyes and trust that.
When has the media ever pulled players over diving and feigningTell me more. You see some.pkayers feign I jury or do they just 'look soft'?
Don't buy into the media driven narrative.
Conte wouldn't have done miracles with this current group of players so if we weren't going to support him in the transfer market the appointment would just be another hollow PR move from the board.
Had Conte accepted on compromised terms then had us finishing 5th/6th again the board would shrug their shoulders and say well we got the best in the business in, what more can we do? Then we'd be hearing all the usual about how everything we touch turns to shit.
It's all very well throwing huge contracts at managers but the really good ones won't throw their reputations onto the fire for a project that's doomed to fail.
I agree 100% - but getting the most regarded managers in means backing them in the transfer market.Conte did very well with an average Italian squad.
He's a top coach.
Adults!!!!!Spurs Community is in meltdown after they finally realised all the ‘ITK’ are guessers. They were all back slapping and dick stroking a few days ago when they all ‘confirmed’ Conte. They have banned everyone who questioned it. Pathetic pricks. It’s like a fucking playground over there. I have always posted there and just read this forum. Won’t be posting on SC any more, and will come and join the adults on here.
Then I can’t believe they were done in good faith initially, or Levy was completely inept in terms of understanding how Conte operates.
I reckon Levy just got him in to have a closer look at his weave, and to pick his brains about where and how to get HIS OWN done...It wasn’t a conspiracy to get ticket renewals. There’s thousand and thousands on the waiting list. It’s just levy being the same old cheap bastard
Who?and will come and join the adults on here.
