BEAMING Antonio Conte is enjoying time off by relaxing with his family on holiday.
But desperate Tottenham fans are missing their former manager amid the chaos at the club.

Conte, 53, was sacked at the end of March following his explosive rant about the dire state of the club.
His No2 Cristian Stellini took over but was dismissed after the 6-1 shambles at Newcastle before Ryan Mason was in charge for the 2-2 draw with Manchester United and the dramatic 4-3 loss at Liverpool.
But while Spurs supporters are being taken through the wringer watching their team, Conte is having a great time.
The Italian took to Instagram on Monday afternoon with a series of photos sightseeing in Paris with his wife Elisabetta and daughter Vittoria.
He shared snaps of the Conte family smiling at the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Arc de Triomphe and the Sacre-Cœur Basilica.
And the smiling manager, wearing a black jacket and trousers with white trainers, captioned the post: "Weekend in Paris with my Family! #holiday #relax #family"
But Spurs fans flooded the comments for their ex-boss.
One said: "Miss you at Spurs."
Another wrote: "Miss you gaffer."
A third added: "I bet you're enjoying not having to worry about Spurs every week."
And a final user commented: "Two weeks away from Tottenham and this man looks younger."
Conte was linked with an immediate return to the dugout following his North London axe - with Italy national team, Juventus and Inter Milan comebacks all tipped.
As for his permanent replacement at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Julian Nagelsmann, Vincent Kompany and Brendan Rodgers are the current favourites.
Spurs look set to miss out on qualification for the Champions League as they sit sixth in the table, nine points off the top four.

Missionary position, Saturday night after Match of the Day is the British way.
Why are Spurs fans still following this bottle job on social media? First thing I did when we sacked him was to unfollow him.

And who are these arseholes that “miss him”? What planet are they on?
Manager fans.
Isn't it really time now we filed this Conte affair under the heading "winning manager screwed by Levy....again."
True, Levy is in charge of running the footballing side of Spurs...but the real owner, Lewis, is rarely held to tasks even though Levy is acting on his behalf.
Lewis must be the only EPL club owner who apparently shows no interest in the clubs he owns - apart from the business aspect.
He was paid to find solutions, it's literally his fucking job!!
Tbh finishing 4th was borderline a miracle for this team and being 4th/5th when he was sacked (albeit teams below had games in hand) was also impressive.
Look at the hopeless lot without him.
The last two games under a total novice manager with a handful of games to his name were better than anything he served up this season.
But I will say again, he's not employed to maon about the issues, his job is to find solutions to them. The cunt didn't, the cunt was responsible for many of them and he ended up bottling his duties and responsibilities. He failed to do his job.
Incredible take. You hate Levy more than you love Tottenham.
Conte was a disgrace this season. We look terrible and moral was shot . All it takes for you is a few negative comments about the club and you’re happy to rewrite history.
This blokes a fraud and a complete coward.
A lot of posters might think they were on the right track associating Conte with Spurs decline in terms of use of squad, tactics, results ....... and why spend £40m buying Porro who is a little bit better than Spence who isn't being used (but was RWB when Rennes beat PSG with Mbappe and Messi in Paris) when other positions (eg CB) needed reinforcing etc.
Been saying it for sometime. This bloke was underachieving. He can manage one game a week and is wedded to a system of play. He lacks flexibility and I believe a good coach open to using the Academy could have got us top four again. I'm glad Inzaghi is fully exposing him at Inter.
I take little solace from it unfortunately.........
.....Much like I'm over the goon bottle-job already (I remember how relatively good 2nd felt for us in '17); all I'm left with is "boy it sucks to be Spurs atm" vibes.
