We just played a backline of Tanganga, Dier, Davies, and Fraser Forster in 2023. Let that sink in

Yes but you can't bench the on form top player Son.
Agree with most of that and think you could have added more. Continuing to play a system heavily reliant on wingbacks with poor players in these key positions is equally as insane. Allowing the midfield to be outnumbered 3-2 in the majority of matches is also absurd. It is very hard to win in this league if you surrender control of the midfield especially when it adds pressure onto an already poor back 3.B
Because Conte is trying to get sacked.
His decisions this season have been ludicrous...... Giving Sarr a Premier League debut against Woolwich then leaving him out the squad for the next few games.
Playing Tanganga and Porro together in the same match.
Never dropping or subbing Son.
Always subbing Kulusevski off
Never playing Bissouma for a consistent run of games...... Totally ignoring Spence....
Leaving it till the 75th minute in games tmvefire he makes subs and then bringing on 2 defenders.....
This is not Elite manager behaviour.
So that either leaves two explanations.
A - he's not as good as everyone thinks he is.
Or
B - he's trying to get sacked.
This is the thing then why play football that exposes that shit defence?
As ever , it’s the hope that kills youDon't I feel like the biggest muppet ever......
I was actually looking forward to the game today......
As I've said before, it's kinda relaxing background listening for something like FIFA or cleaning the bathroom. It's almost impressive that the hour + videos are just continuous with no cuts.I really can't understand anybody who sits through the hour long videos with him droning on and on.
He needs an editor.
Well we havent got him a decent CB when we need 2 more.We didnt get him a decent LWB. We just got him a RWB. Havent got him a decent second GK. Only been backed in midfield and attack.
Do we think a 'club statement' would be this evening, or if there's radio silence has Conte lived to fight another day?
Son has looked the same with others in that position. He is having a poor season regardless who is thereThere is no doubt Son has been poor this season. I've not seen anyone knocked off the ball as easily as him. That said I think you can't play Perisic and Son at the same time on the same side. Whatever Spurs have gotten from Perisic on his crosses has been offset by him being constantly in the positions Son used to operate from.
Can't wait for the inflation mocking 15% season ticket price hike
Clearly you still back Conte. Am just asking for a friend but in what areas do you think Conte has done well this year?Well we havent got him a decent CB when we need 2 more.We didnt get him a decent LWB. We just got him a RWB. Havent got him a decent second GK. Only been backed in midfield and attack.
So we needed 5 players in defensive positions and he was back for just the RWB so far.
Come on, get used to it, I did... I just couldn't care less anymore, it's our club and we stay supporters but one think for sure we will never win a major trophy as far as Levy/Enic at the club. Top 4 is a trophy for us.I was optimistic... I was deluded...
I'm not angry... I'm disappointed...
I'm not surprised... I'm despomdant...
I'm lost for how to feel!
Would fit right in with all the other blatant profiteering that's going on in this country at the moment.Can't wait for the inflation mocking 15% season ticket price hike
