Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

[Dougal]

Worse record than AVB but some people still think he can be a success here. Madness.

He’s a winner. Doesn’t matter what you’re watching. He’s a winner. We just lost. He’s a winner. Literally just lost to Wolves. He’s a winner. Zero points we got there. He’s a winner.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

It wouldn’t even be expensive to sack him.

But probably still cheaper to let his contract run out.

 

[Marty]

I know but nothing has changed.

We have a 34 year old reserve goal keeper in goal… we have our 3rd choice cm playing, we still have 1 good CB.

But everything is contes fault even though he’s not even there….

Everyone is so angry yet at some point the players have to stand up and be fucking counted.

It's possible to both think that the squad isn't up to standard and that Conte and the management isn't getting anywhere near the best out of It's capabilities.

I’ve had enough of feeling like shit because of a fucking football club!

You know what they say, the best way to get over your ex club is to get under a new one.

Oh wai-

The absolute definition of a chequebook manager. His reputation isn’t deserved.

 

[rossdapep]

Yeah. Im struggling to see how we continue.

Defended Conte a lot, and some of those aspects hold a lot of weight. I just dont see how it improves from here.

Im not liking the selections and the subs. Performances range from shite to ok. Not enough to suggest something is growing here.

Meanwhile all of Lopetegui, Ten Hag, De Zerbi and Silva have come in and shown more better flexibility and positivity as well as the feeling something is growing. Their highs have been better than Conte's in terms of performances and lows not as bad.

That's a good indicator.

I have very little hope we will beat Milan.

I'd also add that if Chelsea hadn't made the mad decision to fire Tuchel and had Liverpool not fallen off a cliff we'd probably be fighting for EL qualification with Newcastle.

Not only that but our CL opponents have not been too tough so getting to the stage we have done hasn't been particularly impressive.

At the time I stated that I felt Conte was managing the fixtures and we'd explode second half.

That hasn't happened, if anything we've gotten worse!

I'd like the ones who want him sacked to tell me a realistic option right now

Tell me this is a joke?

Mauricio Pochettino. Wouldn't win anything but it might be fun

 

[RuskyM]

I'd like the ones who want him sacked to tell me a realistic option right now

I'll do it.

 

[AtoubaToothpaste]

I'd like the ones who want him sacked to tell me a realistic option right now

Why, are we football chairmen now? Personally, Poch is a better fit for us. I'm sure there are a dozen great coaches out there that would be a better fit than what we've got now. The football is the worst I've seen in 35 years. If it wasn't for set-pieces and Kane we'd be hovering just above relegation.

Seriously?

Our management put on Lucas on instead whilst Richy and the 'cardboard cut out' Danjuma sat on the bench.

The end was just chucking and hoping for something to stick.

This is a complexed situation and this isn't solely on Conte. The club, its ownership, the players are all playing a part.

But Conte is firmly at fault as well here. He's deserving to be questioned.

He's sacked, we limp over the finish line under Mason hoping for an EL spot at best.

I would honestly be shocked if he were sacked now and Poch came straight in for example.

Not saying I'm against it, but I just don't see it happening.

Even though things are horrid, I still think he is the best option for us to obtain 4th.

I wouldn't trust a caretaker to do better.

Summer is a different kettle of fish though. We desperately need wholesale changes.

 

[bubble07]

Seriously?

I am serious. I think a change is needed but mason for the rest of the season isn't an answer. We need root and branch changes and Poch isn't the man for it

 

[THE SPURSBOY]

De zebri being raved about on talksport for bring a new way of playing to the premier league

 

[SDogg]

Has to go. I cannot cope with this anymore. Weds is irrelevant. Let’s try and salvage the season. Bringing on Moura when we need a goal is inexcusable

Well clearly some are by saying sack him which only a football chairman can do

 

[wrd]

I will never in my life, understand how Levy decided Ten Hag was not a good after his manifesto after that Villa game.

Poch literally came in to this club in a state of chaos and made wholesale changes. Poch predicted, to much criticism, that the club needed a painful rebuild. He was right. How can you say he isn’t the man for it?
