Nuno at Wolves? Worked well, players did well for him.
It worked because Nuno had Jiminez and not a luxury striker like Kane. They fell off a cliff after Jiminez went down with his injury last season and Nuno got sacked. Jiminez is the main reason why it worked for Nuno at Wolves.

Wolves Under Nuno w/ Jiminez
2018/2019: 7th in the PL
2019/2020: 7th in the PL
2020/2021: 13 in the PL *Jiminez suffered a head injury early and was out for the season. Nuno sacked at the end of the season*
2021/2022: Currently 7th in PL

Let me put it simply for you.

When Jiminez went down, Wolves went from 7th in the PL to 13th. Nuno sacked thereafter.

When Kane goes down, Spurs have a better record as long as Son is playing and go to the CL final without him.
 
Kane under Nuno
1 goal, 1 assist in 9 apps

Jiminez under Nuno
2019/2020 season: 17 goals, 6 assists in 38 apps

But NuNo iS tHe PrObLeM!! NoT KaNe!!
They are both different types of players. With Nuno football, Kane is completely unsuitable as he lacks the pace/mobility. Lets see how Conte(or whoever it is) gets the team playing. Maybe he will figure out a way to get the best out of our players.
 
17 goals!!! Oh boy. That's pretty impressive to equal Kane's worst ever scoring season in the league whilst playing ten more games than Kane did. I sure would swap him for the guy who got 23 league goals and 14 assists last season whilst apparently being in decline.
...you walked into that one. No one really to blame but yourself. See, KaneDomBadBoy KaneDomBadBoy and sammyspurs sammyspurs are cagey veterans of this sweet science. They dangle a jab out there just to measure you up. You happened to move and ate the left hook. It's a bitch but you'll learn from this one.
 
Two days ago:
Levy the greedy fucking cunt should have sold Kane it just goes to show how incompetent he is. He FUCKED the club

Last night:
Conte impressed by Levy keeping Kane haaaahaaaaaahaaaaaaaa seeeeeee!!! Seeeeee!!!! Conte loves Kane!!!! Hahahaaaa
YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

So what some are suggesting/hoping is that Conte comes in and plays a style of football that suits Kane’s lack of pace and mobility as opposed to fucking him off and getting someone in who isn’t a boring slug?

This notion also suggests that had we had a fast and mobile striker under Nuno, we wouldn’t have been so shit.

But it’s all about Kane baby……just like that, overnight we’re Kane FC again

Ideally, levy goes all out for Conte and gets a good striker too. Butl in the absence of another striker....we have to try to get the best out of Kane as most our other players are allergic to scoring.

Dont say Scarlett. He is a child. Id rather see Bergwin up front.

People my be expecting too much from Conte this season. Forget it and think long term in my view.
I don’t see the importance of getting the best out of Kane for 8 weeks, I’d rather drop him now and move him on in January.

Bergwijn, Son and Moura works for me

Two guys that score less goals than some defenders up top works for you. You never cease to amaze, Forrest.

Here's your ambition Harry.

Not really.

1_ We should have appointed him months ago. Better late than never, but we have just wasted weeks and weeks of the season and a manager is always better having his own pre-season.

2. Without a few top class signings it doesn't matter who's in charge. Conte will get a bit more out of the squad than Mourinho and Nuno did, of that I have no doubts, but he's not a miracle worker. Now we need to back him and give him money to spend otherwise he may as well have come with his hands tied behind his back.

But I do agree that it's a step in the right direction in regards to getting something out of Kane once again. If he's not inspired to play for an elite manager like Conte then he might as well retire. Kane, for me, is still our second best player at worst if he finds some form and motivation to play for the club.
 
I have a very strong suspicion Kane is suddenly going to regain a yard of pace...

If Conte can't bring him back from the dead for us, nobody can. Harry's now in the last chance saloon in regards to any sort of legacy with us. There's a vast different between playing for a manager like Nuno Santo than there is with Conte. It's up to Kane now. Get back on the horse and be the player we know he can be, or get shipped out and fuck off.

If Conte fails I think we're just cursed.

The subsequent procession of match day fans towards the stadium along the high road will look something like this:
