Actually saying something good for once.
Levy at fault for the mess, Conte tactics poor and the overall gist is that we have no direction as a club.

The manager says we don’t want to win anything didn’t he rest his best player v shef United ?
I dunno, ENIC have been around for nearly 25 years now. For all their failings, it wasn't until this incarnation of the squad that I ever honestly felt like the squad didn't care. Nobody accused Harry's teams of that. Nobody accused Jol's teams of that. Nobody accused the early Poch teams of that. I think Levy deserves some blame there, but the lion's share has to be on the players.
Levy's biggest problem with this group, I think, seems to be that he's felt since 2016 that we're on the cusp and he's afraid to admit that this group has failed and is only regressing further at this point. Should have sold Kane and Son for a mint when we could and retooled. Instead he hired Mourinho and then Conte thinking they could get this group over the top. But they can't.
First I'd heard of it, but here you go:
Antonio Conte 'is trying to recover £27MILLION he lost in scam'
Inter Milan manager Antonio Conte has reportedly been the victim of an investment scam, and has been trying to recover £27million from the scheme over the past two months.
So it’s levy’s fault we played 3 centre backs at the back vs Sheffield in the FA cup!? :contethumb:
An emergency of their own creation. Where they will all sit around. Admire how smart they are and put Ryan fucking Mason in charge again for ten games.
Pathetic bunch of scum bags. I’m backing Conte now. This cannot be allowed to unfold like this again.
I think we need a separate thread to discuss this.
Someone create a thread please.
bit of an eye openerFirst I'd heard of it, but here you go:

It’s very much levy’s fault that those three CB were Sanchez. Dier and Davies. None of which should be anywhere near this club.
Sanchez was back up to Jan and Toby. He was proven weak @ the top level. Davies and Dier were back up players 4 / 5 years ago. Now they start most games. It’s absolutely astonishing when you step back and see what they have gotten away with season on season.
Which of our players “don’t give a fuck?”
I’m asking this honestly because I think many of our players are not good, but I’m not sure which ones are the “selfish” ones that Conte is talking about.
Like with Dele, right?
My only blame towards Conte was that he was naive enough to think that the leopard Levy would change his spots.
I wouldn't say I saw lack of effort out there, certainly a lack of quality in certain players and without doubt a system bringing us down and a lack of organisation
But we were playing fucking Sheffield...not "top level" competition.
I'm not a fan of Sanchez and Dier at this point, but they'd be the best centerbacks in the Championship.
Still regardless of the centre backs , we should be able to beat Sheffield?
For what it’s worth I want levy and conte out this club . As fans we deserve better
You and me both know that Conte knew Levy wouldn't change.
He simply saw £15m and smirked. He knew he'd win nothing at the club and he knew he could blame everyone else but himself and likely walk into a big job following his tenure.
As per earlier post. Aside from possibly Skipp and Forster. Not one player for us today can claim to have left everything out there on the pitch or matched Southampton when they came back at us. Football is 90 minutes and on 75 Tottenham simply stepped off the gas and bang. Being lazy in a team game is unforgivable, and even Son / Kane and our other “big” players failed to match up in the last 15 minutes.
Of course the other reality is that much of what we have is not good enough. And that added to laziness is very bad.
