I don't see him getting applauded, everybody here seems to be calling him a cunt. He is that and we knew it. As a club we need to hear a few home truths and some of our fans seem a bit fragile when it comes from the manager.
There is no bigger critic of his football and tactics than me, i despise his fucking garbage wing-back system. But that doesn't change the fact that nothing he is saying tonight is without merit.
If he's out then let him go out on his terms and tell a few people they are fucking shit. God knows they need to hear it.
His wage was worth it for this.
Can’t believe Conte just sitting on the fence such a Enic puppet! :contethumb:
If levy sacks him in the next two weeks then that will confirm everything we know of the man.
And I'm fucking loving it.
Let's put this a different way, what about our performances on the pitch this season warrant Conte staying?
The subs were to tighten things up because Saints had far too much possession
I'm more interested in the truth than mud.
If all this boils down to is "Wah, I wanted more money" then I shall be fairly non-plussed.
Thank fuck he’s saying it
Someone got ChatGPT to write Contes resignation letter yesterday. Freakishly prophetic
Stone Mason even
More specific?
He’s just said our players are unprofessional, take the money, look for excuses and can’t handle pressure.
And he explicitly references the owner that hasn’t won anything in 20 years.
What more can he do?
The ownership stuff will grab the headlines but calling out the players is my favorite part.
For far too long Spurs have been a country club for averages to above averages players that felt it was good enough just to play and never push on to win anything.
Constantly folding in big moments only to say the same “we need to be better” bullshit in the press.
You know why this team never makes it easy? Because the opponents know we’re sort. Even down 3-1, last place Southampton kept fighting because they knew they could still get something.
Soft players. Loser mentality.
Just burn it down and get some players who want to win.
He’s said that he takes his own share of responsibility but ultimately it comes down to the culture of the club. That flows from the chairman. The chairman isn’t interested in winning. Winning is not his priority.
Say whatever you want about Conte’s cautious, stodgy football, but he is a winner. Levy is a loser. One knows what it really takes to win the biggest trophies and one thinks that just hiring a winning manager and giving them Lenglet will get the job done. That is not how football works.

We had a great run last year, the team wasn't selfish then. What happened? Why did we look clueless in pre-season, why did we look clueless from the first kick of the season?
Why does he keep picking Son despite poor form, why did he do it with Emerson? Why did he not remove Kane from free kicks? Why did he refuse to use Skipp, Sarr, Bissouma throughout the season?
Why did he play Son as a creative winger instead of the run in behind and finish type of winger? Etc. etc. etc.
Says he doesn't want to hear excuses.....as he comes up with a bucket load of excuses
