Usually I think it opens up around end of April time
Last year it was the end of March
Bissouma is a brilliant MF. Unfortunately Conte doenst trust Dier, Lenglett, Sanchez and Davis at CB. His MFs dont push up because they have to protect the defence. Bassouma doesnt like that role. He thrives in a free role. The current setup isn't a traditional Conte setup, as all his previous setups in various clubs allowed midfielders to venture forward in turn.
We dont have a decent CB. Liverpool (League winning), Man united and even Woolwich have shown over the last few seasons how important CBs are. We have the above mentioned and believe Conte must make miracles.
What a load of utter bollocks tbh.
Then he should have dropped the 3 / 5 at the back and play 4 - 4 - 2, miracle.
He has no one else.I mean, we can go on about Conte not being backed at LCB, but Conte clearly rates Dier, which is a massive part of why he's here. If you look just a few weeks ago, there was all sort of chatter about Conte wanting to extend Dier's contract...
Tottenham keen to wrap up Eric Dier extension
Tottenham are keen to extend Eric Dier's contract at the club, with the defender considered vital to Antonio Conte's plansthehardtackle.com
Conte has said in the past he's one of the best defenders in the league and could be one of the best in the world.
He picks Dier every chance he gets. That's why he's still here.
He's had 3 transfer windows to rectify it.
Good post.
Conte getting pelters for playing a back 3 has always amused me. He has no fucking choice because hardly any of them can play In a 2 man pairing and he is well aware of that.
Giving him stick for not changing it in game when things are not going well is a genuine criticism but for starting a back 3? absolutely no way.
Hardly any of them can play in a fucking 3 either!
What's the point in playing 3 shitcunts when we ship a ton of goals anyway, might as well just play 2 of them and utilise an extra player further up the pitch so we could at least have given opposition more to worry about...
Conte had to go. No one criticises my beloved club and gets away with it. Breaks my heart that he upset our players. I saw rumours of us linked to Harry Redknapp. I say get him in for the last few months to secure top 3 and then de zerbi in the summer. Redknapp loves spurs and we love him. It would lift everyone. He is a brilliant manager and person. Love him.
Link please,.....
Rubbish.
Biss isn't "wank"
Skipp isn't "wank"
Sarr is young and raw, but not "wank".
Why would there be a big payout? He has 10 matches left on his contract. If there were some clause that he'd be paid out a punitve amount for being sacked, they'd just put him on gardening leave to wind it down.
Sounds like BS to me, saw a headline that we would have to pay him £15m if we sack him, which to me just seems like misleading spin...
That's his annual salary, say we sack him 2/3 of the way through, we've already paid him £10m in wages, then we're obligated to pay him the outstanding £5m, thus we have paid him £15m...
There's absolutely no fucking way that this man:
Would sign up to a contract where we have to pay out another £15m on top of wages already paid to sack a guy 3 months before his contract is up. And even if we did, then the simple solution is to not "sack" him, just keep him under contract but not doing anything whilst we also pay someone else to do the job. Kind of like Conte did with half of the fucking signings he was given...
Shockingly, I'm all aboard the Harry as caretaker train. I don't care if we finish 8th. Facking run about a bit!
It would be a vast improvement in entertainment value.

What are you laughing at. I could quite easily laugh at you laughing at your self. We have a better team than man united. We can finish above them. We have some huge games coming up. I would fancy our chances against united, Liverpool and Newcastle as we raise our game for the big games. Did you not see the recent city and chelsea games. I actually am more nervous about playing the likes of Everton as we do get a little complacent. Laugh at yourself.
