Conte's record isn't good enough to match the players at PSG.
I don't think he can handle the egos in the PSG dressing room when things go against him.
This is not a criticsm on his part; I think very few managers have the skills and CV required for that lot. Less than 5; Anchelotti being 1 of the 5.

Not so much that, but three key aspects:
- They want someone that can make their superstars into a winning side. That isn't - in any way - Conte. He's shown at every club that it's a wing-back variant and they have to be the right players. He won't and has never made a tactic around a team, but rather a team around a tactic.
- They want someone submissive. Every manager they've had with a backbone has been sacked for not being a 'yes sir' type employee.
- They want to win the Champions League. That's his managerial cryptonite. He's never been past a QF, even when dominating Serie A, and rarely gets out of the group stage.
If he goes to PSG, everyone involve is a fool

Anyone who goes to PSG is mad.
Three players who have to play, none of whom will track back. A useless sporting director, split dressing room and a squad who will get rid of any manager.
Maybe contes ego makes him think he can succeed but I think he would end up getting sacked for violence against Neymar or something stupid.

Plenty of doubt in my mind when it’s comes to Levy, he will spend, spending what’s needed that remains to be seen. Hope I’m wrong, but I’m more than skeptic.

It's so glaringly obvious. Hope he isn't too stubborn to try it. If Rico Henry beats a man and sends in the ball that subjects us to a loss then I can live with that. I can't live with 180 consecutive minutes of no shots on goal.

Conte come on, you need to make some changes a HT, and Royal has to be the first to be subbed. Make a statement. A wingback with no purpose of positioning and attempted any cross - he can be taken off.

That result is on Conte , to watch that crap and decide to not change it is inexcusable . Lucas with 5 to go when kulu hadn’t done anything all game is just baffling . This is what u pay the top money for , to get over the line in the back end of the season , not roll over like you overdosed on Valium .

Don't want anyone in here sucking this guy off and reinforcing the 'its all the players' line. Ultimately for the majority of the game he was outcoached by a manager with far inferior players and he managed to leave that sack of shit Emerson on the pitch for 85 fucking minutes. Bergwijn scored a brace vs Leicester, was one of our best players against Chelsea and has looked bright in every cameo he's made yet can't get on the pitch. We are paying this guy 18m a year. Why don't we start pressing high and actually dominating games that we should with our quality. This mid block counter attacking bollocks isn't gonna work in the Prem which is stacked with great teams.

Is Conte at Spurs the first ever manager in PL history where the club has to worry about him leaving should they not finish in position x?

First time since he’s come in I think he got it all wrong. How he took until 87 minutes to see Royal was actively hindering us I’ll never know.
For the next five games can we not play his ideal system, but try the best on for what we’ve got. If that’s 4-3-3 or a 5 with Deki at RWB I don’t know. But this just isn’t working with our awful wingbacks
