Conte wants Spurs to bring passion to Marseille 'final'

[mawspurs]

Antonio Conte has urged Tottenham to take momentum from Saturday's dramatic victory at Bournemouth into Tuesday's "final" at Marseille.

Spurs were heading for a third consecutive Premier League defeat when Kieffer Moore's brace put the Cherries 2-0 up at the Vitality Stadium. Conte had rested players with the midweek Champions League clash in mind, where Tottenham need a point to reach the last 16, but chucked on a number of regulars and saw it pay off as Ryan Sessegnon, Ben Davies and Rodrigo Bentancur scored to seal a 3-2 triumph.

Then take the bloody leash off from minute one.

Then take the bloody leash off from minute one.

Seems from Conte's post-Bournemouth comments that he isn't leashing them in the first half, it's the players doing it.

Reminds of when Mourinho said he wasn't coaching or asking the players to sit deer and deeper in games. They just kept doing it.

That's exactly what came back to me too.

And yet he keeps on and on picking the same players who don't seem to be following instructions in that case. Seems odd that Bissouma has been kept out of the team for ages because he hasn't got the tactics sorted, and Spence can't get a look in for the same reasons and yet this bunch of players aren't doing what he wants (allegedly) and yet get picked almost every game.

So the players are like we must not lose we must not lose, shit we are 2 nil down so we'll play like conte wants now. Sorry Antonio I don't buy it.
