Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

All of you crying out for an expensive wingback when conte was always a huge uncertainty going forward are going to look silly when Porro is winning the Europa league on loan with Villarreal in a couple of seasons.

Was a baffling move way too late in the day. I mean its been obvious since the world cup about Conte. That £40m could have gone on a centre back or creative player.

Terrible recruitment.

But I don’t want to hear most of the people on here complain when they are frothing at the mouth about the fact it took too long to sign him. Fact is, he should never have been signed at all.

Still hope he tears it up and becomes a competent right back long term.
 
Why should Conte resign and not get his pay? Because we arent winning the Premier League? because we havent won a trophy yet? Delusional.

Contes appointment was all or nothing. The transfer windows were pathetic. We are exactly where we are meant to be.

And now we cry out for Pochettino, a guy we stabbed in the back, to save us. But as soon as he isnt backed in the market again, youll be calling for his head too.
 
Even Lenglet was running into that space in Milan. Not sure what we're up to in that part of the pitch.

Doherty sucks and could do nothing with it, but he, Kulu and Romero seemed much more in sync down the right when that was the trio.

Kulu has been smart enough to fathom how to work in tandem with both of Doh & Emerson...... The additional balance depends on who is at RWB, but the blend/balance of our left side has been crap all season and at it's worst when Lenglet has been the 3rd element alongside Perisic (or Sessengon) & Sonny.

Lenglet + Perisic + Son sucks the most.

All true and lots of factors including being away from family for long periods
Not good for anyone
But you would think he'd know this before he took over.

His other factors are nothing special. There's people on £30k a years who get sick, suffer loss and get on with things without acting like a little fanny
 
Hopefully Conte's recovery goes well, the guy clearly has been through alot this season.

Who knows what will happen in the future, but it's important to get himself 100% first.
 
He shouldn't have rushed back, and I'm glad he's resting. I do have a feeling this medical leave will then transition into gardening leave though, so a non-sacking sacking. He gets to keep his CV clean with no firing on it, and we get to plan properly for his replacement starting now.
