Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Then hire another manager, who will be another failure. Pochettino was losing to most of the league's shit (we got embarrassed by Brighton in one of his final games) and then Jose had a little purple patch before we were getting shit on by Croatian farmers, and then Nuno got a go and he's dour and bad, but the players did the same shit again. Now we've got Conte and same old story.

This manager succeeds everywhere he goes. Every manager fails when they arrive here. The logical conclusion is that this club is at fault, not him. Do I think there are decisions on a micro level he's getting wrong? Yes. Do I think we're losing these games primarily because of that? No. This squad is the worst we've had in years.
Yeah our club is at fault but to say that he's a great manager after losing to the shit we've been losing to is incorrect. He's been a marginal improvement to Mason/Nuno at best. I don't think we would have seen significantly different results under Mason/Nuno etc.
 
He hasn’t succeeded every where he’s gone. He was delegate at Arezzo and quit/sacked at Atalanta when they were second bottom. He succeeded at Chelsea and Juventus/Inter when he had a big chequebook and inherited title winning squads.

He's succeeded everywhere he's been since his very early career when he had only just started learning the ropes. He didn't inherit a 'title winning squad' at Juventus or Inter, neither had won the league for years. Both had to be built up to that. Chelsea had the squad but Jose had them in mid table the season before and they were revitalised.

He's been a serial winner for years. Rocks up here and apparently has forgotten the basics of coaching? Or is it more likely we're just a terrible environment for any kind of success, considering our record? I know what I'm going with.
 
Give the guy a chance ffs.

He's been at the club four months and some people want him to change the players and mentality in that time.

I for one trust the process, yes this season is absolute rubbish but you need to trust the process abit more. You can't realistically sell 11 players and bring in 11 in one season. Give Conte the summer, back him and we'll see an improvement.

Judge him next season not this season.

Next season? You're optimistic thinking he will still be here
 
Its our worst squad in 20 years. A Kane and Son off day and we look like a relegation team. We have no option to stick with Conte. Whats the alternative, another new bloke that will want to look at the squad first and give Winks another life and bring back Ndombele and Lo Celso? The squad needs gutting first and foremost but the owners should hang their heads in shame its come to this.
 
The manager can’t get off the hook for a good portion of the blame here.

The players rolled over like they have done many, many times in recent years, the spineless pricks - but Conte treated Boro like they were Man City and then arsed about changing his formation back and forth.

100%

I am not for slating anyone unless I think it's deserved but surely we should be expecting more..

Conte can walk.if he starts with his split personality rants.

I did not expect great things but I did expect greater things..
 
even if you take away his midfield fuck up YET AGAIN! hes left subs far too late yet again. common theme with him leaving subs well late. berg should of been on a lot sooner, a blind man can see son is leggy and shouldnt be out there.
 
What is Conte supposed to do about having exactly 2 senior midfielders fit to play. What’s he supposed to do about Son having the worst game of his career. What’s he supposed to do about having Doherty and Sessegnon as the only two actual wingback options at the club.

When he reverted to a back 4 with fullbacks Royal and Davies we were still shit.

Some of these players haven’t performed consistently since under the last months of Pochettino 3 years ago, let alone under Conte.

We just played 4 away games in the north in a row, we were clearly exhausted in extra time. And we would have been 1-0 up if VAR was in place, Kane’s goal was onside.

We need to give him the chance this summer to replace the average players in the team once and for all
 
Conte has had nothing but success for the past 10 years at multiple different clubs and we have a team that by almost every person's judgement outside of the moronic homers would say is not good enough and yet there are still some morons here ready to blame the top 5 elite manager and give the shit players a pass.

There have been some amazing displays of people ignoring facts and reality and believing a BS message lately- Trumpers, Brexit, Anti-Vaxxers etc. but this level of willful ignorance and stupidity might top the list.
