Manager Antonio Conte

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Football rumours are generally total bollocks and not worth paying much attention to, but at this point the Conte to PSG stuff is all looking a bit 'no smoke without fire' to me. May be contingent on whether we make top four, or how the summer goes.

Not really worth worrying about as still could be media bullshit. But I'd be surprised if it had zero basis in reality.

I think it’s just his insurance in case we don’t back him in the summer to what he wants.

Every time we have important games, we get this fucking shit. Can’t people just give our club a fucking break for once? It’s shit like this that could ruin our season. Why now?

Yep, it's almost like now that the Man Utd manager search is over the media need something new to talk about and it's always good old Spurs/Conte/Kane rumours that start circulating again.

It was only a week ago or so they were saying Kane is gonna stay, now it's Kane to Man Utd again.

They just talk so much shite nowadays but get away with it because no-one does jack about it.

tbh, it's essential that Conte remains for the sake of stability and progress at the club. If Conte were to leave so soon after the situation with Mou and Nuno, it would leave a dark cloud over the club.

Questions about Levy, the board, players would be all over the press, it would lead to chaos, and make it very difficult to get new players.

It’s just the way Conte is. If we don’t make the CL then he’s probably not going to stay here. Unless Levy makes up the shortfall that would come from missing out on the CL then Conte will toddle off to a club that can match his ambition. He wants to be competing with the best.

Levy knew who Conte was when he hired him. Conte couldn’t have been more clear about what he expects.

Never seen so much gossip regarding a manager.

If there was any proper truth in it, the English media would be all over it, as would Romano. I expect the whole summer to be this way as well, with Conte and Kane.

Whole summer? No chance, if Conte feels he wants to go he will leave as soon as the season is over

Another thing to consider regarding Conte is that he is still living in a hotel and his family have remained in Italy. 1 year left on his contract and very little talk about the future. Interesting times.
 
No way Poch is going to be there next season, he been found out and can't manage a team of established stars.
The Qatari owners wants trophies and I think there is some truth in the French footballing press to this story.
I think they see the only man who can manage these players is Conte, judging by the quick success he's having at Spurs.
He'll jump at the chance given he'll having 100's of millions to spend aswell
 
No surprise the scum media come out with such stories to try to unsettle us. Teams raise their game against us and the media love to mess with us. What happens will happen but the players need to first step up and want it.

To add, the trouble with such stories is that the media and Scum Sports News and wanker Gooner media personalities (personalities being generous) will parrot this narrative to do damage. Conte it asked just needs to shut it down immediately and not let it run, then he is just as much to blame.
 
I prey this is where he sets up his tent for good.
stay and he takes us to the promised land.
all the media shit i won’t entertain.
The video where he boots the ball and then starts bollocking someone on the pitch is priceless.
Just back him please Mr Levy.

I think the report has zero basis. Le Parisien are anti-Pochettino, just go look at their reporting from their UCL exit and also when they finished 2nd last season. They want to try to unsettle Conte and get Tottenham to sign Poch back. I guarantee the French media knows fuck all of Conte's intentions
 
Part of me thinks paris press are mischief making. Pissant league over there. Their players are overindulged and out of control. Made a big deal keeping poch last summer. Levy will give him what he wants in summer. I just hope we get our business done early in summer and players can have a full pre season to prepare for. Need stability not turbulence.
 
Couldn’t think of anything worse in football than managing in that shitty farmers league. Guaranteed title pretty much every season. Franchise soulless club. Nothing challenging whatsoever and anyone would be stupid to leave a fantastic club like Spurs for that shite
