What a rollercoaster few days. Levy had a lot of fans hating him and everything to do with the club to now everyone is on cloud 9 and levy comes up smelling of roses once again.

In a couple of years we might look back at the 3-0 against United as an incredible result. As may Man United fans.
Said this earlier like when we beat Liverpool 4-1 then they addressed their issues

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad if we appoint Conte, but the stupidity of all the wasted time when we (clearly) could have had him in summer with a full pre-season to work with the team is just incredibly frustrating. We all knew back then he was the man for the job.
That’s Levy logic for you. Our just plain old incompetence, in which the bald bollocks is a specialist.

We’ve signed our Guardiola. The future of this club.

Conte is coming in at the peak of his career. Back him and it won’t end in disaster

Was done verbally hours ago. Contract was still to sign(at that point) as it needed amendments, which is not unusual.

Just goes to show what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.....a new manager in less than 24 hours why did it take 6 - 8 weeks to get a poor replacement whom we sacked 4 months later?

BBC article just come out:

A bit unfair i think on Spurs if we take Levy at his word wrt the stadium. Will we spend 300m in 2 windows? No likely not. But with the new stadium being full every week, the ancilliary events, & the fact that we have 30 years to pay back the loans, it presents a lot of wiggle room to provide for the club on the pitch & with the hundreds of billions Newcastle is now flush with to improve their dilapidated infrastructure & squad, this is our last & best chance to finally figure this mess out again, get a trophy & get something going to build upon. Conte is here for the now. But depending on how things go, Paratici could be here for longer than the initial 3 years he got.

Annoying that it's Vitesse then Everton then international break. How much of the squad isn't going anywhere and can work with Conte?

I think his main focus up until Jan is to focus on working purely on formation and the players he wants to keep. I dont think we will all of a sudden win 5 or 6 in a row. I think he will sound out who isn't needed and who is.

This winter window is our most important in years. My inkling is that they will go for players with 6 months left and pay the fees instead of the freebies.

If that was the case, he would not have come. Fabio has likely been told the budget he’ll have at his disposal for January & that has probably been relayed to Conte. We’ll see what happens. I really would love a good long form behind the scenes article on how Paratici pulled this off after the disastrous summer debacle.
I think signing romero, gollini, Gil and royal would have would have played a part
