Jose vs Conte - who did a better job for us?

[Nebby]

If we had to re-appoint one or the other tomorrow, I’d pick Jose.

Ange making an absolute mockery of Conte’s disrespectful comments towards our players and club last season.

 

[keithtighe93]

Jose never shat on us or seemed like it was beneath him.


Yeah it didn’t work but he isn’t a prick away from it all.

Conte seems like a prick in general

Wasted years (especially for Kane). That we can agree on.

If reports were true, he had a hand in asking to be played under these 'winners' managers, especially Conte.

Kane wanted the stellar manager according to reports

It also seemed like he was keen on Mourinho and was disappointed when he was sacked. That summer (a few months after we sacked Mourinho) was when he pushed for a move to Manchester City.

Jose was always respectful of Spurs and the fans. The polar opposite of Conte. Both ultimately failed but I’ll always have more time for Jose. Conte was and is a wanker.

You could see that the players hated playing for Conte. everyone was shit scared of making a mistake.. I imagine those 18-20 months when he was here were so fucking miserable for the whole club, top down to bottom.

I’d bet the training ground was a pretty bad place to be too, certainly for the last 9 months.
We only see the body language during matches but imagine going into a toxic environment every day? Must be tough.

For all that Conte shat on the club, the players and the fans, it is worth remembering that in the autumn of last year he lost three close friends in Vialli, Mihajlovic and Ventrone. And then to top it all off he had to have emergency surgery in the spring. It was a fucking horrendous time for him as well, and he took it out on the club. We may have disliked that and hated him for it, but in many ways you can sort of understand it.

Having said that, if we had a gun to our head and had to pick one to take back, it would be Jose for me.

Neither, I am taking the bullet.

 

[truebluespur]

Jose. In a weird way, he's sort of likeable as well.
Conte was just putting on an act while our manager. His true colours showed towards the end with pathetic and unprofessional comments about club and players.

Anyway, Postecoglou, some random bloke from down under, makes them both look silly.

 

[TropicalYid]

I dont think its healty to use ones time to think about this subject.

 

[davros]

Conte got us into the CL, and his first season ended on a real high. He had a pretty tough personal situation during the second season, and he's clearly a bit of a difficult character to work with. I'm sympathetic to his personal situation, but wow things burnt down pretty spectacularly, and that was avoidable. I didn't love Jose, and he never felt like a good fit for us. I would take him over Conte if we had to get one of them back. He left just before a cup final, which means, despite the mess, we had a chance of winning something. Conte just left us in a shocking mess.

 

[BorjeSpurs]

Kvaratskhelia left wing back coming up?

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Garcia was a bad appointment for them but Conte will be also. Shame as they were a really good watch last season.

Will they be wanting NDombele back then?
Looks like they're making the same mistake as us in thinking they need a win now manager to push them on. Haven't they been good at unearthing good young talent and giving them opportunity?

 

[fishhhandaricecake]

Kvaratskhelia left wing back coming up?

Jose made me laugh and cry, Conte just made me mostly sad.

Both a terrible fit but if I could choose one again it would be Jose for sure.

 

[Fredo]

Sacking Mourinho before the final will never ever sit right with me.
