Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Are we happy with Mason until the summer? Or do we think Levy and Co will look to get a manager in during the break?

I think it will be really hard to find a manager willing to take the job, I really do. We are back where we were in 2021, another embarrassing season except this time it’s not just Kane who could leave, but Son and Lloris too. It’s an absolutely massive job and who’d really want to have to come and work for Levy at a time like this? You are doomed to fail under this chairman.

I expect most managers will turn it down just like they did 2 years ago. It’s no longer an attractive job from a sporting perspective, if even serial winners cannot work successfully with Levy than how can any manager? Would you want to work for a chairman who says “we will return to Tottenham DNA of attacking football” then hires Nuno? Agreeing to work for this moron is a guaranteed curse.
 
It's got to be the new gaffer. Mason will try his best but we can't waste half of next season finding out about things. That can happen now.
Agreed. Can’t be a stop gap. Need a manager to come in a use the next 10 games as his bedding in period so he can the ground running come summer. There’s plenty of good managers out there right now with no clubs.

Hard to find a manager to take the job. That's a joke right.

Bizarre.
 
A purely cynical move by Wiggy to get released from his contract early. Gone tomorrow I shouldn’t wonder. I’d love to dig though some of the old posts from posters that said Wiggy loved the club. Comedy gold.

Anyone who thinks that Wiggy cares more about Spurs than Eric Dier should be buying a bridge in Brooklyn.

While he may not have gotten his own way entirely with signings — pretty much confirmed that Spence and Danjuma were ‘club signings’ — then signing Perisic and Richarlison are enough to blot his own copybook.

Good riddance to his turgid football.
Eric Dier is one of our problems. Weak and basic.
 
Has he gone yet? We need to get a manager that is able to pick his own starting 11 and actually let them manage the team, really feel for Conte with Levy picking the team and not letting our world class manager change the formation!

Also can the next manager please be allowed to make changes during the game, I don’t like the fact levy forces conte to play a 5/4/1 when leading 3-1 against bottom of the table!

Not having a pop but who are the managers realistically we could get other than going back to Poch .We will have to get someone who would be here for a few years and that seems to a problem for most clubs when a serious task is on hand .
 
he didn't say he is innocent or blameless
He said “I don’t see a team” what he meant was we have a good creative team but I’m an Italian fraud , I want to bore the other team into submission, I’m going to play 5 at the back and defend , defend , defend! Yes we have Kane and sonny but 3 points is 3 points , doesn’t matter if you win 1-0 or 8-0 so we take the 1-0 , we leading 3-1 game is over let’s play defence , let’s sit back and invite pressure as this is what football is about
 
I can't see Conte being allowed to continue managing, he is creating a toxic environment for all concerned.
Although, I agree with what he said, this should of been done in private, not played out in the media, which I'm sure will anger players and the board.
I can see mason taking over until the season ends.
 
Instead of blaming everyone else, maybe he should explain why he rested players in an important game against Sheffield Utd, only to lose at the weekend, or maybe he should explain why we played such negative football against AC Milan in a Game where we needed and could have easily turned over a 1-0 deficit, but most of all I’d like him to explain why he took off an attacking player and replaced him with the worst defender at the club in the same game when we were chasing a goal.

It’s all well and good blaming everyone else but at least take a look at yourself and admit youre the reason why we have not won a trophy this season.
