Comparing Conte's time to Ange's time is such a pointless exercise, even when you remove the calibre of each manager.

Conte has the best striker in the league, along with a prime Son. Kane was the difference between us and where we are now if we're deeply honest. He won us matches on his own.


Ange isn't the answer. I wanted it to work, but it hasn't. To be honest I don't know who is anymore.

Iraola I like, but he'll need time, which as a fan base we're not very giving of. Silva I think we'll get the same treatment as Nuno, potentially Frank as well.

As for the Stutgart manager, a few loses and people will start moaning about his age and experience again. It's a tiring cycle.
 
no chance, don't let premier league propaganda cloud your judgement.

Lol, fucking what?

In the mix for the FA cup you will have Liverpool, City and Woolwich. 3 clearly CL level teams. Even Villa are CL quarter finalists - beyond that you have a group of teams who are easily on a level with Frankfurt etc. Of course the FA cup is harder to win FFS.

To win the Europa League this season you don't have to face a single side who have dropped out of the premier competition, its a huge opportunity.
 
And he came in to a shit-fest with no pre-season.

To be honest, I feel dirty comparing the two. Postecoglou has no right being in the same sentence as Antonio Conte.

"This is the mentality of the club. For over 20 years there is this owner, and they win nothing...why?"

Ah, but we play better football now, mate.

I love it with they try to claim Ange took us from 8th to 5th,
No, he took us from 3rd to 5th. We Were quite comfortably in the top 4 even with Conte losing his marbles.
It was Stellini and Masenollio that took us down to 8th.
And now we're miles below 8th. So it's been a steady decline down the table since we sacked Conte.
But STILL there are people that think we're better off.

Conte had a much worse squad but two elite stars (in fairness they also looked elite because he played to their strengths - see Son now for a comparison).

A Conte team with our current defence would be frightening.

Conte had an aisling Lloris, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Tanganga, Lenglet, Royal and Sessegnon.
(plus Romero and a few games with Porro)
And still looked more solid at the back.
 
did he qualify for Europe through winning domestic cups? sounds like it if he was midtable
His only domestic cups won as manager were at PSG. At Sevilla and Villareal he qualified for Europe through the league.

Emery as a league manager can more or less be described as "He has his teams were they are predicted to be". Took over a struggling Valencia, got them back into regular European qualifications. Took over a struggling Sevilla, took them back into Europe and won three straight Europa Leagues. He kept Woolwich in or around the European places for most of his run there as well. Then back to Spain and a disappointing Villareal and another EL. And now he has taken Villa back to seemingly being a European football regular.

The only real standouts in his career is PSG because PSG are who they are in French football. And a underwhelming 6 month stint in Russia.
