Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think Levy saw the reaction in the stadium to the Man Utd defeat, which comes on top of all the other bad decisions made the past couple of years, and has made the case to Uncle Joe that Conte is the only way out of the mess. And to get Conte, they need to spend and back him.

This could be a huge turning point in the history of our club.
If this is true, and hey lets be positive, the conclusion is clearly that fan pressure works.

But regardless, there is zero doubt that significant investment is the right financial decision for the club, the only one that wouldn’t see the value of the club decline.

Football is a trap that way and a terrible business, that’s why these guys want to create the ECL. But again, fan pressure works.

We want Dusan Vlahovic to have Sky’s money, not Joe Lewis. Fight for it.
 
Those kind of tweets where it mentions specific players that a Manager has asked for always make me laugh

So lazy and obviously not accurate , as if anyone actually knows what is being discussed with talks like this

True. But he was a ‘generational talent’ so to speak.

Will be very interesting to see what he does with someone like Gil.

I am not sure where Gil fits in Conte's preferred 3-5-2 and I doubt with Kane he would look to play a 3-4-3 he did at Chelsea.

I think that is the bigger issue with Gil than just his age. But if Gil does have a place in the formation I doubt him being 20 will bother Conte.
 
Even if we do get him

that's only half the battle, we then have to actually fucking back him in January and those signings need to be done in the next few weeks so its just a question of getting them finalised.

IF we have a big January and get Conte we could salvage this season and squeeze into that top 4.

But both things need to happen and I can't bring myself to believe it

The last 24 hours have been surreal as fuck
He will have so much leverage over the worm it’s will be hilarious. Levy will be absolutely terrified of him
 
For me, the chief thrill in having this manager - if it was only to be for 18 montths - would be that we are garaunteed to get rid of all the wage-thieves.

Finally, a proper clearout.

Bleach 'n all.
 
I've been burnt by the Conte hype before, not letting myself get carried away until he's kicking Harry Kane's arse all over our wonderfully manicured training pitches.
