Well conte will have absolutely no problem walking away if he doesnt get what he wants or was promised. That would be some embarrassment for levy. Hence why i think he will actually free up funds

I’m not having a swipe at Conte, mate - but the same mental midgets played who’ve underperformed now under 5 managers in a row
I couple of you have said… heavy touches and poor passes the result of being gassed from the new intense training style. Trying to bust ass today… they are not fit enough. We won’t know who passes and who fails the Conte test until they are fit enough to take the exam. Maybe in a month? Two? In time for January at least.
That’s true. However, they haven’t been coached properly in 3 seasons and are also out of shape physically. Things will get better.
Has played there for ireland and been decent
In fairness erikson was hitting the first man long before jose and nuno took over
Neither am I.... The fact he's only JUST set foot in the place means surely those 'mental midgets' have a lot still to learn...
The 'new manager bounce' is exactly that... A short lived feelgood feeling until reality sets back in.
HAD we won today, most would've bemoaned the fact the players only try NOW, and not for the last few years.
What today (and Thursday) showed me is that they're prepared to learn... Just that it won't be an instant quick fix .. and nor should it be if we're in it for the long haul!
Anyway, with my magic 'Coulda Woulda Shoulda' hat on, I'm preferring to think of today as an encouraging 1-1...
They score from a pen (that WAS given), and Lo Celso curls one IN off the post with 2 mins left...
That would be WAY more positive! ...and yes, before you ask, my Aunty DOES have bollocks, and he's my Uncle!!
Unfortunately we will be stuck with guys who are on decent contracts and will not move readily so it will take quite a while to really upgrade the team.I have faith in Conte but he is unlikely to be here long so we really need two good transfer windows to give us a chance .I hope that the fact he is on an 18 contract doesn't put players off .
He’s shite and the sooner Conte realises that about him and others like Dier Winks Gio etc and gets rid the better!
It's Conte's first EPL in charge for Spurs and he's only been at the club for a few days.
It was not an exciting game, that's for sure, but at least the defense was solid. And Spurs had their chances that could have won them the game.

Yeah, but Aurier was shipped out regardless...only had a year left though...
An away point in any shape or form is respectable considering how we’ve been playing add a new manager into the mix (-10men Kane did play but….) if you carry on reading you’ll get the jist some galoots on here would find a negative even if we‘d won 5-0 but hey you know that already game dull but hey ho, two weeks break then we can all start again:contethumb:I've only just seen the result and haven't read through any comments. Did we play OK or did the team sleep through it, like me?
There's defo more intensity and movement and we're moving the ball more quickly too but it'll take a bit of time to turn things around beyond that.
I thought we were comfortably on top until the non penalty, when the idiot ref just wound their crowd up by giving it - thank fuck for VAR (also Reg played everyone onside too).
We ran out of some gas but he'll get us fitter given time.
Final balls were generally pony and we need a more creative midfielder in there, agree with others who would make us 3-5-2 and stick Ndom in.
Ses coming back will give us an alternative to Reg, Doherty is clearly not the answer there.
Lo Celso needs a run of games to get up to speed but i'm just not convinced he has what it takes to deserve a run of games - one for Conte to work out.
What I'd give for a 2018 Eriksen right now, we're crying out for a bit of consistent creativity, brains and composure.
