Management Cristian Stellini

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

This.

This second half of season is nearly turning into a carbon copy of last seasons after a relatively disappointing first half.

Beat City. Lose follow up game. Then go on a bit of a run, gain momentum and get top four.

Happened last season. So far, spot on for this. I don't know why it's come to this or why it's similar, it's as if the players finally realise they need to fucking wake up.

The idea that our players need to learn the same lessons over and over again and receive the same ass-kicking every season bothers the hell out of me...

We've been mostly tepid (kind!) in the first half for years now too.
 
You might be onto something. Remember when the resident nutcase was convinced Conte was being fooled by Mason into picking his mates :mourloopy:

You can't say such things about old Arcy when he's no longer here to defend himself!

I mean there is absolutely no way that Arcspace has a multi on here and can read about us calling him out for being a twat.

Absolutely no way on earth can the member formerly known as Arcspace read our opinions on him being a total fucking douche.

Definitely no chance he can read this.

‘No-brainer’: Collymore thinks Tottenham suddenly have a ‘problem’

Collymore wrote: “Cristian Stellini is doing a great job in Antonio Conte’s absence.

“However, the problem for Spurs is, when the manager’s number two gets a taste for the outright manager’s job, they often have their head turned.

“Of course, they’re going to want to experience it more because they’ve had a sample of what it feels like to be the top man – the one in charge – the man who is listened to.

“I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if clubs are looking at him and wondering if he’s worth taking a gamble on.

“I don’t think any clubs in the Premier League, certainly not top-half sides anyway, will be willing to take a chance on him. Still, as for Championship teams, or the equivalent throughout Europe, in my view, it’s a no-brainer for them to be looking at Stellini.”
 
I like that his name is a star shaped tiny pasta
Not only that… by Yid Army ones too.

It’s literally written in the (pasta) stars…

:conteshock:
 
Heard levy went to the training ground today and asked the coaching team if there was a problem with their mobile phones, apparently wiggy has been trying to speak but all he hears is laughter and voices saying the reception is crap here
 
Maybe Stellini simply is better at executing Conte's ideas than Conte himself ;)
If it continues like "this" then Conte's doctor should tell Conte to extend his restoration period with his family back in Italia :cool:

Yeah, shut up Stan.

You're all idiots. It's obvious what is happening...

Antonio has his feet up at home right now, on Football Manager, playing game after game of Sheff Utd v Spurs. Trying out different lineups, formations, etc.

By Weds evening, he will have the optimum setup and emails that over to Big Stelly.

After we win, Conte starts playing Wolves v Spurs matches...

I only got as far as ".....something something wife-beater".

Conte dropped Son in 1 out of 22 matches, immediately bringing him into the side after he scored off the bench. Stellini dropped him in 2 out of 3 matches. Conte was playing Perisic into the ground, even playing him as a forward against Preston for absolutely no reason. Stellini again drops him for 2 out of 3 matches, even when his backup isn't available, he plays Davies at LWB where he hasn't played for years. You can't tell me their selection is the same. Stellini does what the team was crying for for months under Conte: he dropped underperforming players. I'm sure he consults Conte, but Conte likely has an easier time rubberstamping someone else's decisions to drop the players he's clearly attached to, than to drop them himself.

I have no idea where is it coming from that nothing has changed. Do people actually watch the games or just read the interviews?

- Royal role has totally been changed; he used to try to overlap and run behind; now he has been shifted way more central and he is rather keeping focus on passing not crossing.
- Our left side consisted of Son who did not score nor track back and Perisic who got more and more exposed as he played in every single game; now this has been changed to Richie + Davies and it is TOTALLY different looking
- Our defenders used to back off over and over again and invite oppositions attacking our lines; now everyone in the defense have given instructions to step out, be aggressive and clear the line.

It is painfully obvious that we play in different way than we used to. There is absolutely no denying it.
And when you read the 3rd point... as soon as Conte was on the bench - it did not happen, we kept backing off and were humiliated by Leicester fucking City.
