Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

[Karol]

New manager search?

In my humble opinion this is already a done deal

Berry berry done

Not a dig, but do you think we'll concede less goals, or that our offensive output thanks to Porro and Dajuma will compensate for that flaw in our game?

I don't see either of them helping with the mentality that we have of going behind in games then playing catch up and getting beaten by any team above us with quality, also is conte going to be as motivated as last year if he is off he cant be no matter what he says along with players who know he is off and don't like the defensive set up anyway

I think it’s both. If you have better technical players, we can keep the ball more and attack more putting teams on the back foot which takes pressure off the defence.
We can also play 3 5 2 when required now with the right wing backs who can still get us up the pitch which again helps out the defence.
Im sure we’ll score more goals now with Porro as we actually have attacking threat in a key position.
Plus, if we want to we can play danjuma over son and not be carrying another player when son is off form. Danjuma can also press properly and carry the ball effectively which helps alleviate pressure on the defence

Why won’t they? Two young motivated players giving there all, adding much needed pace, dribbling and technicality can have a huge affect.

The defenders in this squad only conceded 5 in the first 10 games this season. The last 10 games have been a shambles but all it takes is a return to form. They also performed well during the run-in last season - a big reason we actually got top 4.

 

[taricco]

What makes you say that?

He hasn’t been backed to the level I would expect if either party thought he would stay on. Zaniolo a massive clue.

 

[dirtyh]

get gone antonio, save yourself. who needs this constant disappointment in their life.

i doubt anyone on earth can get spurs to win anything with levy and the current board 'behind' them.

[heinsmit]

Could be off touchline for a few weeks

 

[Bluto Blutarsky]

Oh wow. Hope he has a healthy recovery

 

[0v3rl0r9]

I thought that was a wind up at first, damn. Hope for a speedy recovery.

 

[GutBucket]

Maybe that's why he cried in one of the games recently, hope he recovers soon.

 

[Karol]

Get well very soon Antonio

 

[PCozzie]

Oh gosh, best wishes to Antonio. I had some abdominal surgery 16 months ago (different thing) and this sounds like a similar recouperation time. Just take it easy boss!

 

[Harrier]

Guessing Stellini will take over in the interim with Conte recuperating at home in Italy?

 

[mattspur1]

Get well soon Boss.

 

[spursfan77]

Fucking hell whatever next. We are properly cursed as a club.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Had a rough few months, this fella. Needs a proper rest.

 

[thebenjamin]

just one normal day

 

[Danny1]

Get well soon Antonio, hopefully he can switch off his mind & get a full needed rest.
