Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

There's nothing between defence and attack in this formation to knit things together. Everything is sideways and backwards and then just hit up to the front 3. We can't build and maintain any pressure it's just a counter attack and that's it. We've been figured out these last 3 or 4 games. The full backs are atrocious and not offering enough for the formation to work so play the extra midfielder or drop kane in a 10 role and play lucas or bergwijn. We are fucking awful to watch right now. He hasn't got the players here he's had at other clubs.

Conte’s apparent inaction these last 2 games has been disappointing, to say the least, but we’re going to need more than a “young hungry coach” to take this club forward. Look at the lack of flair and creativity in what should be our midfield engine room. How in god’s good name did we end up paying money for Emerson Royal?

I know you’ve been Conte out from day one, but don’t kid yourself that the next managerial change will solve all our ills.

Royal was a Patricia purchase pretty late on in the summer transfer window and bought as acFB. Conte comes along and plays WBs which we have seen since day one royal is not capable of playing. However eight must need eye transplant as well as he can’t or won’t see that.

100% correct.
 
No matter what anyone says, the fact that Conte only has a year left on his contract and is not looking to extend just creates instability and uncertainty in the squad full of weak mentality players who need a lot of babysitting and the need for comfort.

with conte you can have a 10 years contract, but if he decides to leave he leaves
in this two matches we just couldn't handle the pressure to be favourite for the 4th place, also the players with quality like son and kane have disappeared (though people insult emerson royal or winks like they should be the players to win this type of matches)

Spot on what the hell has happened to Kane and Son. They have utterly vanished along with the manager....

We need to take note that EVERYONE of the "Spurs Fan Twitter Accounts" are the ones that are facilitating the rumour (not starting it). These arseholes are interested in one thing, themselves, they are more concerned about being the first one to post and put this above the Club.

They haven't the balls to check the story out before posting. They haven't the ability to do so because Dave from Palmers Green isn't a journalist, he's unemployed, has zero contacts in the industry and spends his time on the internet 24/7 with his finger primed over the send button.

It doesn't matter what the Tweet is, whether it's real info or bullshit, the only thing that matters is to post it, get it out there.

Why on Earth flood the fan base with this kind of story when we have 6 massive games to go? Even if there is potential truth in it it’s just a shit message to spread.

Pick one account to follow, ignore the rest, there's literally no reason to follow them all as they tweet exactly the same shit, if you have to follow all of them mute them.

These are the people/accounts that should be held accountable because without them a baseless story would never get off the ground and gain traction.

I couldn’t agree more. They’re absolute scum. Our version of AFTV.

Conte confident of summer move to PSG - Football Italia

Reports from France suggest that Antonio Conte is confident that he’ll pull off a switch to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.
football-italia.net football-italia.net

The fact this story is surfacing now tells me several things...
Whether true or not, it has intentionally done the rounds with the sole purpose of disrupting the club, and any momentum we may have had after the Villa game...
Now whether WE as fans believe it or not, doesn't really matter... You have to consider that the players DO read this shit...
Those who CAN read are online virtually every second they're not training or playing... So of COURSE they'd have been aware of it.

Difference is - as yesterday showed - they're too pig shit thick to work out if the rumours are true or not, and probably accept it as fact 'cos it was on Twatter!

Where are the 'Arteta to Barca/Real' rumours....?
How come HE isn't eyeing a bigger job at PRECISELY the same time as his team have 6 cup finals left to secure 4th...

And shouldn't Sakha or any of their players have 'demanded CL football in order to stay' by now...? 'cos it always comes down to that with us....

As TalkTV will prove tomorrow, Gooners in the media seem to have the biggest, loudest voice!

Why else is it all you ever hear when the likes of Matt Lucas, or Alan Davies, or Paul Kaye, or Piers Morgan, or any other celeb Gooner makes SURE they're contractually obliged to mention it at SOME point during their performance...?

Yet I haven't heard Michael McIntyre mention once that he's a Spurs fan in his act?

Us mortals won't ever know for sure unless something comes of them.

......But I guess it's not beyond the realms of possibility than some players (like some fans) have allowed themselves to be unsettled by them.


My point is more that we fans can be more vigilant in not helping to further circulate the meddling tweets of the twitter leeches.
