If this guy wasn't involved with football I would be very worried by his vocabulary.
Blood, kill, suffer, violence. Dude was apparently taught English with a edgelord dictionary.
If the day before he arrived , someone said he will sort all this shit out in a few months , have you playing proper football and challenging for the top four , we’d have laughed him out of the place . Conte is a bloody genius , we have to back him . (Up to you Mr Levy )Honestly want us to give him a 5 year contract and let him turn us into title winners. Why not? He’s one of the best managers in the world. Look at the job he’s done already
It was not only the wing-backs who were struggling today, though - the whole team was shaky in the 1st half, unable to string together passes and often lost the ball.I think today's performance wasn't "conteball", there some elements of his passing patterns, but our wingbacks were hopeless and we struggled to play through a press. We can do that at a slower pace like against Everton and co, or when Villa was gassed in the second half.
There's a HUGE potential for improvements if we can get a top CM and two quality wingbacks.
Different eras. Did Burkinshaw ever win a league title ?No he's not. Keith Burkinshaw is the best Spurs manager since Nicholson. Conte's only been at Spurs for 5 months.
I am not 12 ! I have suffered Gross, Ramos, Graham and relegation, promotion.
You claim to be a supporter since 1964, yet totally ignore Burkinshaw?I am not 12 ! I have suffered Gross, Ramos, Graham and relegation, promotion.
Conte is a winner who has already carved out the players that would never have fitted into HIS style of play. He is trying to give Sess and Winks a chance to shine or leave. He has signed 2 players who went straight into the team not bench warmers or some unknown French or Dutch players who never get into the team and quietly leave so as not to emphasise the enbaassment of signing them in the first place.
I started supporting Spurs in 1964 and I am hoping to see them hold the premiership trophy before I pass on. Conte has won titles in England and Italy, he was outstanding as a player too. Winners are hard to find.
You’ll be running out of love hearts at this rate
Different eras? We're talking Conte being the best Spurs manager since Billy Nick (different era)?Different eras. Did Burkinshaw ever win a league title ?
I was around when he was manager and he was brilliant but would he cope with highly paid players, Lev?y
If he gets us into top 4 this season, and we win a trophy or two next season. He's the best manager in the world. Full stop.
