Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

[pablo73]

Am I happy with Conte? No
Has yesterdays result changed how I feel? No
Do I think stelini is reason we won? No

Do I like asking myself questions? Maybe

Hotel? Trivago.

I'm not one for reading too much into things, certain words are this or that, the cult of being offended because you want to or can be and all that stuff, but even to me, that deliberate misspelling was a bomb waiting to go off.

Like the manchild on here who insists on calling him "Dennis Levy".
I mean what the fuck is all that about, apart from being childish and petty.
It's not funny, not clever word play and not insulting, so I really don't understand the point of it.

(Sorry but that's been bugging me for a while now. ?)

No it was Emerson!

We are not setting up any different with or without Conte, it's just that we haven't folded in games like we have seen.

Stellini and Mason a bit calmer than Conte when mistakes happen? Possibly, but it's impossible to tell.

Conte with 3 elite CBs is what we need

So that’s a no then! We’ve only had 3 elite Centre Backs in the last 30 years.

To be fair we've had 4 but we don't talk much about 1 of them

 

[kmk]

We don't need 3 elite CBs, just one elite and 2 good ones. Joel Matip, John Stones and Aymeric Laporte aren't elite but they have still won league titles.

Think if we had 3 elite CBs and a new keeper most top managers would do well with us

I always saw him as more of a natural striker though #gingerpele

 

[Duke of Northumberland]

It's like in any job. The boss doesn't need to shout, but the mere presence can have an affect. Not saying that it is the case, just saying being there on the touchline might be enough to unnerve a player or two.

Yes, stiffening effect. Not in a good way...

 

[Albertbarich]

He has to commit to us for that to even be a possibility before we start expecting 200 million in centre backs

 

[ComfortablyNumb]

And Conte isn’t the only coach who could get a tune out of three elite defenders. Add a couple of elite midfielders, and there’s a bloke down my local who could probably win something…

Yep. I was like Martin Peters and Glenn Hoddle (only with more natural ability). Decades ahead of my time.

They may have, but "serial winners" haven't won in a club that somewhat parallels us. If clear outsiders has won league title in last decade or so in big 5 leagues, it has come with coach of different past ranging from journeyman to up and coming star.

Ginger Pele has more recent trophy than Spurs.

(Ok, it's League One title. Still tell it has been quite a while since that League Cup - anyway if we are going about Mourinho winning some Intertoto reincarnation and Nuno winning Saudi league after leaving Spurs, Doc winning League One goes with those)

 

[spursfast]

You say this but yesterday we were our usual dull, slow selves. And then picked up second half. Story of the season.

It was the same against Marseille when Stellini took charge.

if we start like this sunday as bad as Chelsea are right now they'll get the chances to score ?

What do you know, McFly?

I’d love Laporte as could play left centre back as well.
