I think he probably is criticising himself and his approach. But that’s clearly not the only issue. Levy could do with a dose of self reflection too, deluded little maggot
Best thing he has done for our club.
Will it work? No.

Eric Dier and Ben Davies are two of your starting CBs, he's got a right to be pissed, though obvously he's also to blame.
I literally explained this in that post.....
What have the owners done over the last 2 seasons to prevent him doing his job ?
I am enjoying this but if Conte has been thinking/feeling this way about the players for months then it really makes no sense that he has not rotated more.
I am sure he can find plenty of heart and spirit from the academy.

It won't. It may absolutely come down to individual examples of us deciding to save a bit of cash rather than go the extra mile for a player, but mostly I think it will be about the culture/attitude set at Spurs, which many of us have seen is clearly not right for a long time. Far too much mediocrity at the club which has been allowed to stay & fester for years.
It's time to get ready for some home truths which cut through the "we are ambitious" propaganda the club spew out.
Conte hasn’t won many of the biggest trophies. You should look up his record in the European Cup.
Why use a formation with more centrebacks then?
We have plenty of problems as a club and Levy is central to all that.
The insipid performances we have put in week in week out since preseason, after very significant investment in both winter windows and this summer, are all down to Conte. He can say whatever he wants but he’s done a terrible job all season. It’s the same mistakes every week and the approach is dismal. That’s on the manager.

He says Dier is World Class and wants to give him a new contract
I think it’s more the culture they’ve developed in the previous 25 years that’s the problem.
Conte can get in the bin, but good that he’s calling out the clowns.
What’s the point then?
Honestly, why should we bother supporting a team and club who don’t want to win and are in it for a jolly.
Agree.
It's laughable the club want us to believe we are serious about competing for things when Dier/Davies/Sanchez are still here.
Well yeah, a lot of people will be thinking that. I know I am.
Why is this chairman asking me to pay £1500 for a season ticket?
Nothing. He should have been sacked months ago, long before our season collapsed. Only one person to blame for that, the one that time and again makes horendous calls about managerial apointments and sackings. The bloke is a fucking clown shoe and should do the honourable thing even if ENIC dont sell.
We’ll probably get the fucking renewal email through next week too ffs
Agree, and I think he will admit he’s got it wrong (in private). Root cause is Levy
Fully agree.
Look at Richie. Regardless of his form, he exemplifies the team first attitude. Runs his bollocks off. Pressed and fights for everything.
Wiggle stuck him on the bench and mocked him for the press.
Not to mention our only good/consistent run of form early in the season came mostly from excellent set pieces, which he has nothing to do with. Even when we were winning a lot of matches with set piece goals, we still looked rubbish in open play.
I was fully on board after last season but Conte has utterly failed this year.
