Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Conte hasn’t been himself since losing the fitness coach,

Saying that, the fact that they didn’t get the contract signed during the WC made it pretty clear something had changed behind the scenes.

When fully at it and pacing the sideline like a madman, Conte is the best coach we’ve seen at Spurs in a long time.
 
If it ends up being Tommy Tuchel, then Mason needs to lock him in a room and torture him with this video.



Tuchel can coach attacking football. There's that desperate silver lining at least.

(ahahahahahah)
 
Today's Conte proclamation that only 2 teams can win the league is more than enough to see this Bastard sacked. If Conte had got his finger out of his hole yesterday and won the match then Woolich next 2 games are Man Ure and Man City, a real test for a team that lost a big derby.

Add in 2 of our next three games are against City, where two wins wold see us get level with them on points.

Conte should be out there giving a war cry, instead Antonio Fanny is busy looking to wank off two teams we should be putting pressure on.
 
Mourinho and Conte were both reactive appointments aimed at keeping our stars at Spurs. Kane above all.

He could have chosen managers adapted to the reality of what he was prepared to spend on players, but Kane wouldn't have hung around. Instead it's looking like it was all a big PR job. Fake ambition.

Fake ambition is perfectly put. Which is why no credible manager will want to come here under Levy. He had a chance to smash his reputation with Conte.

Once again he showed he has no real interest in winning. He's been found out
 
Shits going to hit the fan very soon I think, I predict Kane will leave, Son sold, and Hugo gone in the summer and Poch back over the summer for the painful rebuild project with a fresh and transformed side to the one he left .. and I wouldn’t be too beat up about it at this point.

I don’t want to hire anymore Chelsea managers fuck that, and Tuchel is a complete and utter bellend, no thanks!

Maybe the Celtic manager could be a shout
 
Perhaps simplistic, but.......

Last Nov: "You know what; I'll give this 'project' stuff a whirl afterall(*) and see how I get on...."
Currently: "Nah, not for me actually...."


(*Just waxing, but he's always speaking in such terms.............. Otherwise, why not just unleash the hounds and publicly call the board out like Rafa Binitez does or like he himself has done in the past?)
Career suicide if he does that surely. Currently Levy will be blamed for knowing the type of manager and not backing correctly.
 
New manager, same old chairman. - We can’t go out and buy top players right now there’s a recession going on, but of course we’ve had to put your ST’s up to pay for the new Hotdog store on the high road. It’s for the American stuff we put on here sometimes. Remember we’re ambitious and we want to win , just not this week, year or decade. Thanks for your support as always , Your beloved chairman Mr Daniel Levy
 
Tuchel? I don't think he's a bad coach or anything, but it will be such a joke to bring in yet another ex-chelsea coach. It would be so damn depressing and embarrassing.

Worked for the French. Would need a very tiny one for Levy.
 
Poch needs to be smart about his next job. A return to Spurs under these awful conditions seems like career suicide

I agree, it's not the right time and would hate to see Poch come back and it leaves whatever legacy he left with in tatters.

Unfortunately, I can totally see Levy wanting him back to try to get the fans something to get excited about and take some pressure off of him. It would be the most cheap and cynical move I think he could make, which means it has a high likelihood of happening.
 
Everything is stale at the club apart from the stadium. Lots of solidish but uninspiring players at the club. Davies, dier, sanchez, peh, Doherty. Some who are past their prime - lloris and son. Some are just shit- sess, royal, tanganga.

Only deki, bentancur, kane, Romero, richarlison are top 4 quality now.

We need a manager to develop the prospects, get rid of the average and passed it players and give us a palatable culture built around attacking and high energy football.

Kinda sounds like what poch did last time.
 
Conte has to blink first. We have to know whether he really wants to make a go of the job. His family are still in Italy which considering the hard year he has had can not be easy. If he is not going to sign then levy has to rip the plaster because we are in statis at the moment. CONTE acts like he is doing us a favour. Fuck that shit we are one the greatest clubs in the land. Join us or fuck off. If on the other hand he signs then levy doesn't back him I will be levy out. But Conte has to make the first move.

There's probably something in the contract that penalizes Conte for walking out on his deal- otherwise I feel like he would have resigned by now. For me the more surprising thing is Levy being reluctant to sack him with less than 6 months of contract remaining. Is Levy that worried about eating 6months of manager wages than 6 months of opportunity-cost for Spurs as a club? Seems a bizarre miscalculation to me.
