Just looking at the presser, he looks like a beaten man tbh.
Of course this is all his fault, isn't it?

......But if we're fatalistic about everything..... Nothing will change if Conte stays either.
Conte out does not = wanting ENIC to stay. People just aren't that tidy and easy to package.
FWIW: I'd like a solution to be found and to wake up to photos of Levy & Conte hugging tomorrow morning.... Still probably not gonna win the league next year though.

No one really WANTS levy to stay. But between him and conte leaving, conte out is far more realistic.
What’s the point of wanting conte to stay if it just means levy stays and we continue to flounder, bore everyone to death, and act defeated.
Why do you think?
There are more fundamental things to be resolving. Things are going badly on the field and his contract is up in the air.........
If he thinks the board won't give him what he feels he needs to succeed then just say so. If he feels he's been lied to then say so....... Just ditch all the other fluffy crap and stop nibbling round the edges.
That equivalent counts for Levy too. Crunch time for all this crap was Dec 31st....... Get your shit together. We just had an unprecedented 6 week autumn break, FFS.
I never wanted Poch gone in the first place and I have wanted Levy out of the club since he signed Reese Nelson and Louis Saha when we needed reinforcements, for Harry. The fact is Levy has taken the piss for years. He has failed to reinforce at key points.
Spurs are still at a crossroads and no matter if we lose Conte now or in the Summer it is the same thing. The fact is I do not see anyway that Conte stays the one thing he is good at is winning League Titles by keeping it tight at the back, I think even he has realised he has very little chance of doing this at Spurs.
The fact is Conte was never a long term choice we only got him in because we had no choice because the Nuno mistake and an unhappy rebellious squad. This is the the biggest problem there is no plan as much as I say throw money at him and buy the players he needs, I do not know how much he needs to stay.
Yes Conte has been backed in the fact that we signed 6 players in the summer but it all seemed like poor squad planning.
Forster - Back up keeper (Free) - When Lloris needed a replacement why sign a 35yr old that offers nothing.
Perisic - (Free) The only summer signing that has worked but is 33
Richarlison - (50/60M) Most expensive summer signing shown very little
Lenglet - (Loan) Ok on the ball, atrocious defender.
Bissouma - (30m) Manager has no clue how to use him does not fit the system
Spence - (12/20M) Pointless the manager has never wanted him at all
Udogie - (15m) Lets talk about him next year
The fact is there is no plan there but our plans in the summer were also limited by Antonio Conte himself we could have signed young talented centre backs but the only ones he wanted were one world class cb and the other did not want to leave Inter. The fact is what Antonio wants Levy is unwilling to buy and it does not fit his plan.
The fact is this is going to get messy and I don't care if Antonio goes out swinging but this is destined to end sooner or later. I would rather move on to the next stage and try to salvage something because the bald cunt is not going anywhere.
But there is no plan. If there is I would love to know what it is? Is it lurching from disaster to disaster? Because if it is, he has definitely nailed that!

I think most people feel that there is sufficient blame to spread between Levy/ENIC, Conte, and some of the players. There's no reason that this has to be a binary blame situation.
Time spent focused on Conte out is time wasted.
Fix the problem at its core, no more plasters to paper over the cracks.
Fix the problem at its core, no more plasters to paper over the cracks.
For me, blame attribution is as follows:
Daniel Levy - 94%
Conte - 4%
Sessegnon - 2%
Strong point that.... Sadly we'll never find out for sure what he's demanding vs what he's being offered.
........Is it cost effective (on and off the pitch)to haggle and fall out over the difference?
If not, then it speaks poorly of our vision. If it is a significant gap, then we've been wasting our time all along.
Another one bites the trophyless dust.Just looking at the presser, he looks like a beaten man tbh.

ochsulk:
There are some turds who do
ENIC aren't going to get rid of themselves and Conte isn't some philanthropist, renaissance man who's gonna act as caretaker on behalf of the fans in the interim.
Bizarre.
Honestly the state of fans.
Next to nothing Conte has done this season talks progress.
Any stick...
You forgot Winks.
yeah, but would love to see that passion right now.
Say what you will about Levy, but his ability to drain the life out of everything is unparalleled
I agree on what you said after.
Doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s a good idea to hear from the club, medical team and game officials more regularly
Joe Lewis (the guy with the dosh!) = 0%
..........Now there's a plot-twist.
