Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I have no doubt that if Conte had top drawer a GK good with his feet, and a CCB and LCB, who were both press resistant and comfortable on the ball (as well as being able to defend), then his system would work a lot better. But he does't. And playing Tanganga / Dier / Davies / Sanchez makes us a very average football side. His stubbornness with the system after not getting the defenders he needed has killed us this season. Who is to blame? 50% Levy and 50% Conte in my mind. And now the players think he is off in the summer things will only get worse as they everyone drops their levels.
 
Nearly all of his goals last seaosn were running onto through balls on the counter. We have not played those patterns all season, with a slower build up, an overrun midfield, and Son playing exclusively with his back to goal in a congested midfield.

Kane dropped deep last season a lot, playing those balls over the top. When he's done it this years he's been crowded out; rest of the time he's staying up more.

We lack an AM, only have one tactic and it's been figured out since it's been played under three successive managers for four years lol
 
First off i hope his health is ok. He's not looked right for a while and whilst we criticise him for some football matters its important he gets well. But from a club point of view i think its time to draw a line under this, i think it would be a relief to all concerned. If its going to be Poch back get him in now.
