I think it was his poor health that was the final nail. He was clearly frustrated with how things were going anyway but with his health, I think he realised he needed to go. Since he came back it felt like he was trying to get out the door but didn't know how to, culminating in his rant as he just lost it.
Loved the last two videos as always James, thank you! But I was wondering if you we're planning on speaking about what went wrong for Nagelsmann, and how Tuchel might change things? Perhaps that's one for a champions league preview. Anyways go on sweet sweet gunners
Always great to hear the thoughts of a neutral. Say it how it is without the bias coming through from the clubs fans. Agree with you, longevity from the new manager who can engineer a team who can actually enjoy playing football, because this season it is clear the Spurs players haven't had much fun. If the Spurs board can get the next appointment correct as stated above, then the fans will be entertained and happier. Exciting times!
The stick/barrier analogy was like a runaway train there for a moment. Like a runaway train you could pick up and hit James with and then put back on the tracks to continue on its inexorable way towards derailment.
Biggest criticism of him is that the whole 'he's saying it how it is' is ignoring the fact that he only did that because he wanted his severance package. He wanted to resign, but he wanted the payout, and he didn't care who he burned to get it. And yeah there's a lot of truth in what he says, but I wouldn't want him anywhere near my club
Basically this he gave up on a job where he got the backing (contrary to what people think we've spent £150 million+ on his signings) for him to mold the actual team culture to his liking
He didn't say it how it is cos he didn't attribute any blame to himself. He knew Spurs' budget when he arrived and refused to adapt or develope. Not entirely his fault cos he was never the right man for Spurs. Also, he had Romero, Kulu, Bentencour, Lenglet, Perisic and Richarlison added to a squad already containing Kane, Son and Lloris.... The least he could do was adapt to the strengths of the squad. Instead he demanded players to fit his inflexible tactics and spat his dummy out at the worst possible moment. If being 'elite' means being an overpriced, inflexible, big-head, then Levy maybe should be more realistic this time and go for somebody less 'elite' and more down to earth.
I actually don’t think he’s done a bad job overall. Last season he got them top 4 whilst overturning a 9 point gap to Arsenal and he came in when they were 8th/9th. This season he had their best ever start to a premier league season and best start to a league season since 1963/64. I think they suffered from missing Bentancur as their results with him are very good. I also think they needed to give him time to bring in a proper Keeper, Skirinar like he wanted and another window. At the end of the day, he’s still in fourth. I actually think the reason why Spurs fans dislike him so much is because Arsenal are top playing amazing football. Even after their best ever Prem start they weren’t happy. The excuse of the stale football isn’t valid either because they knew he would play this football when he came in and they were ecstatic then. The only real change is Arsenal being top playing amazing football.
Arsenal doing well is a factor but not the only one real Spurs fans have been pining for a long time about the state of our team and that hasn’t changed just because Arsenal doing well you’ve got a look at the bigger picture you’ve now got six teams not including ourselves that are spending big every year We don’t so all we can see is our projectory going downwards well the other top 16 is going upwards that’s the difference
While that is mostly true. Conte's contract was up at the end of the season, and he didn't look like signing another. All the outburst did was expedite the process of him leaving
Yeah, was an odd decision. I never felt that mourinho deserved that trophy. He had one relatively difficult game on the way to the final, and even had a bye (by?) in 1 round due to covid. Also although the team started playing fairly nice football for Jose, after they lost to west ham he changed to a really boring, negative approach. We'll never know what would have happened in the final, but that City team were good and Mason's team did fairly well against them, I'm not sure that Jose's would have done any better.
A strange decision sure, but are we gonna ignore the fact that the fans were desperately calling for his head for weeks prior? Same thing happened with Poch. Levy’s crime is listening to the fans if anything.
Also wrt Poch one of the biggest issues with his tenure with the club is the fact that Poch is so notoriously picky with transfers that it along with Levy's attempts to get the best bargain prior to bring Paratici in kinda handicapped our transfer windows when we needed to be making those moves in the transfer windows to take that final step.
Spurs is a loser club that will be trophyless forever, let's face the truth. Conte and Mourinho are two of the best managers ever, you guys are lucky enough to have had them and did not appreciate them enough. The truth is that they're too good for Tottenham.
Great video Jim, but I do think Conte was speaking about something larger than individual player performance. You were spot on with the assessment that Spurs as a club needed more of a process to build up to a trophy, which goes along with Conte's statements about the lack of "culture" or gumption from players and higherups to demand MORE
Spurs and Chelsea are similar, the new players are owners signings not manager signings. The owners are creating the squads, they want to be the manager..
Fact we didn’t go straight for Poch and have Mason/Stellini until end of season makes me think it’s Nagelsmann in the summer and he wanted a reset period.
Every has said these things , Conte just said the thing the fans needed to hear. Mostly that their fans are actually decent ,but problem is in the player recruitment & the rancid players that are just there for a good time not a glorious time. Which requires sacrifice , suffering along with hard work skills & talent. There's a few that clearly aren't capable of that
maybe Conte expressed his mind countless times behind closed doors, but no one cared too much? I'm very happy that he said what he said, atleast this is out there now, so pressure is on Levy now (I dont even know which time this happens). If Levy fail this once again I don't even know where we go from there.
Completely agree, he would have been tearing his hair out behind closed doors. You don't blow up like that unless levy has been actively undermining your efforts the whole time. Which we know happened with poch and mourinho before conte. Daniels been hung out to dry and he deserved that.
I think hiring Nagelsmann would fall into the same category as Conte and Mourinho in terms of a big name who might think they are above the Spurs job. It would be stupid for Tottenham to go for someone like that again. Poch was up and coming and was Southampton manager when he came in and they need to bring in someone of that ilk I think. In terms of hiring Poch again? Not sure how that would go. I think you make good points James about the power he will have which is needed when you're a manager building a project (obv example is Arteta :) ).
I’d say Naglesmann would be a good idea moving forward simply because of the way he plays. With Leipzig and Hoffenheim he was all about attacking. Nuno, Jose and Antonio all prioritise defence especially seen it with Jose shutting up shop at like minute 55, and Conte being so formationally inflexible
Nagelsman isn't a big name that has been around the game for a long time and won loads of stuff, he's still a young up and coming manager (he 35 - younger than me....). He also still has a lot more to prove, yes he had the bayern job (which is a guarantee of at least one trophy) but it hasn't ended well for him so he will feel the need to prove something. I'd be really excited to see him in the prem and I think spurs could be a good fit for him
Nagelsmann is a project type of manager who will need time to turn them into a pressing, attacking team. But spurs track record recently makes me think they’ll sack him before he’s completed the project.
@@benfulford3943 I was just thinking that maybe in his mind he would want something like Real Madrid or PSG. He might see that going from Bayern to Spurs as a step down (which is what my point was based on). However, this is all guess work from my part obviously. I am an Arsenal fan too so the prospect of Nagelsmann managing Spurs doesn't fill me with joy haha
@@jaddaou7170 nah he's still to young and unproven to be looked at for those really big jobs. He's definitely an exciting talent but bayern took a big risk promoting him there so soon and it hasn't completely worked out for them
I'm not sure he'd want to leave Feyenoord but Arne Slot could be a worldie of a hire but would Levy give him the time and fiancial backing is another question
where does Conte go from here. none of the top 6 italian teams need him i can only see Fiorentina or Udinese perhaps be able to afford him outside of those top 6. other than that maybe a club in spain where his tactics would work well. cant see a club like Atleti letting go of Simeone just to play arguably worse football even if his profile is similar.
Idk what conte expected though? He was acting like spurs did something wrong. They’ve gotten him richarlison, lenglet, Bissouma, perisic, spence, porro, Romero. Spent plenty. Unless they were signings he never wanted? Was he promised more? Just seems like another job where he’s thrown his toys out the pram again because he’s bored 😂
I honestly feel like we would've achieved something or at least had some form of a deep cup run if he didn't have the worst year of his life but also it kinda sucks that he took it out on the players and basically threw in the towel on a job he was given to try to change the culture of the club. Also it's really gross he basically spat in the face of not only the club but also our fans who welcomed him with open arms.
During Conte’s time Spurs have signed a bunch of young players that could be part of the rebuild: Kulusevski, Risharlison, Porro, bentancour, Bissouma and Djed Spence.
Tottenham are a mess. In the last 15 years, they've wasted so much talent with nothing to show for it. Bale, Modric, Kane and loads of other excellent players and whenever they have a chance to win something, they choke.
Slightly torn on whether to bring back Poch. I feel like that could end in tears as well, particularly if Spurs don't back him in the manner he desires and it becomes deja vu. Nagelsmann may well feel that he is beyond the Spurs job, and given how unfairly he left Bayern (and that they are continuing to pay his salary after he was sacked until the end of his contract), I can see him more likely taking time away and biding his time until a more suitable job arises. I would like to see Sérgio Conceição (Porto) or Rúben Amorim (Lisbon) at Spurs. Both seem like that could bring a clear identity that Spurs have lost in the last few years.
Enrique - definitely don't have the playing squad w/ technical skills to play possession-based football. Maybe in the future if we get some AMs & a younger squad.
Nail on the head Jimbo, both Conte and Mou thought they were better than spurs (go on banter lords say they are) and with that mentality they were always doomed to fail.
The reality is they are better, these are the people that are gonna make you Spurs a winning club but if they want to keep acting like they are already a top club that wins trophies and that they don't need these top managers then let the circus continues
@@prosqer quite clearly they’re not as good as they are in their own heads because they both played horrific football and won nothing at the club. Both failed miserably.
@@celtic69 mate, are you ok? they sacked mourinho before a final, goes to roma and wins a trophy, conte just won the league with inter milan. SPURS IS THE PROBLEM
Conte rated us at about 7th place when he started and said the CL qualification was a miracle. We chose to sacrifice football to play his (similar to Jose M) anti football. Conte has done okay and left us in a not bad position. He is however predictable and dogmatic. The next manager will have to play attacking football with a poor defence it will be difficult but at least we might see the chains loosen and our team play some attractive football. Rather than this sideways backwards defend rubbish.
We needed to be beaten though, Levy has a massively over inflated idea of where the level of the club is. We have a huge gap to bridge before we can consider, consistently winning trophies. Being told by a huge figure in the game that the club isn't structured for success, in public, is exactly what needed to happen. Levy doesn't have anywhere to hide when it comes to this next appointment. The moment a new manager complains of the same issues, questions will be asked of Enic and rightly so. Daniel hides from his failures with "behind closed doors" conversations all too often.
Yes is a winner😂😂 come on... he can go to big teams with big mentality... i see conte in manch city,or liverpool... he will win everythink in a club like this❤.... who do not understand conte mentality is a big loser... who criticized conte interview is simply a loser😂😂😂😂
@@rosariorusso7777 what a childish response. I really don't see him at either city or Liverpool, he never lasts more than 2 minutes at a club as relationships start to breakdown.

Spurs played much better under stellini.....conte returns they lose to sheff utd, and Southampton Interesting to see what happens if stellini and spurs win most or all of last games and qualify for UEFA CL Will he be offered top job? Will he take it? 🤔
I think Poch will come in. People say he hasn't won anything at Spurs but neither's any manager since Ramos. Getting them to the CL Final was still a magnificent achievement.
Poch achieved far above expectations. He made us a consistent CL team that was challenging for things. It's such a shame that he wasn't back to rebuild the squad as he wanted.
We do realize that 50M of the the money that Conte was allowed to spend was spent on securing Romero as a permanent. He did not receive 1 defensive upgrade while at the club.
If EPL had trades, Conte and Potter might just have been a win-win. Conte with a club that spends loads, and is similarly ruthless in its pursuit for winning; Potter who comes across as nice, nurturing, and who - without the weight of huge signings and expectations - thrived (see: Brighton).
If Spurs want "trust a process" manager then Spurs shouldnt have sack Poch in first place. Poch is the manager that bring Spurs into top 4 but becuz of bad result in his final season, he deserve a sack? Cmon just admit it that Spurs is not an ambitious club to begin with. Both Mourinho and Conte already prove it. So good luck trying to win Trophy in the future..
“The guys that think they’re better than the club”. Erm… they are better than the club. Look at mou and conte’s trophy cabinets and look at spurs’ cabinet.
When we appointed Conte, the same thing was said. “Levy is the only scapregoat”, yet here are many in the media putting all the focus on Conte while we go another year trophyless
@@Delete240 Levy appointed the manager, Levy signs the players. If I hire someone at my company and they don’t do their job, then it would be my fault for hiring the wrong person. Levy gets the praise when things go right so he deserves blame when it goes south.
@@jaedon7446 levy appointed Poch. Levy Signed Lloris, Son, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Eriksen, Dembele, Dele Alli, Bale, Berbatov, Keane, Van De Vaart, etc, so what’s your excuse for them?
@@Delete240 all of these signings were 6+ years ago??? Clearly none of those signings has put us any closer to a trophy so what is your point? When we were our closest to a trophy, we did nothing but slowly release those players and now are in a state of constant regression.
For all of the nice football though, what did poch win at spurs. Not a spurs fan but he was there for years and he didn't win anything? So nice football and process doesn't guarantee trophies.
@Kian Hall so he's not wrong, but he's a hypocrite... with nothing to back your statement. And then call me a genius for being correct about him not being wrong... genius 😂😂
@@11JTmc bro did you not learn to count past one? Funnily enough, there’s this thing called ✨multiples✨. That means that (in this case), Conte said MULTIPLE things, and he was right and wrong in different areas. It’s not rocket science you absolute tool. Did you fail to graduate nursery school?
Maybe they didn't tell Conte about the Go Karts and other exciting new frontiers for the former football club? Or perhaps he simply doesn't like Beyonce?
I am so happy United didn’t go down that route with Conte. So far, Erik Ten Hag has clearly been stern with the players, strict in their preparation, and players say he is obsessed with winning (pretty cliche but still excites me). He’s earned so much respect for me this season.
Spurs bottled it again. They take a top 5 coach one that most ppl believed would win them something. They took that and bottled it, that team should be no where near champions league football but Conte dragged them to it last season. Absolute bottle jobs once again
We all hate Levy. But he barely made a transfer mistake with Paratici, Nuno and Conte saga. Daniel Levy gave Conte first choice players like Kane, Son, Kulusevski, Perisic, Porro, Bentancur, Lloris and Romero. With 1-2 quality players Conte would've won a trophy with Spurs but he gave up very easily.
Sorry but people do not understand conte interview or conte mentality... is simply a loser... 😂😂😂 because is a fact he is a huge and serial winner.... so tottenham had so many nice managers so they all winners.... so is tottenham mentality the loser😂😂😂 so conte did right to say everything he said in the interview because at least good manager do not going to tottenham because they know the poor mentality of the club😂😂 so i loved conte to say what did he said and pubblic that is a good lesson for people unprofessional dazzette❤❤❤❤
Dunno what the point in this is. Spurs are one of the worst run clubs in the league. Maybe if they helped their managers more they wouldn't be in this mess. If people like Daniel Levy can't stop being so stingy they'll end up losing their top 4 place in the future to Newcastle, Brighton or Brentford in the long term. Aside from Kane, son Højbjerg and Bentancur their squad looks like a team of mid table strugglers. It's a miracle they're top 4 currently.
A massive problem for Conte was Arsenal! Playing amazing football, top of the league whilst Spurs are fighting for Champions League spots, if Arsenal & Liverpool swapped positions I don't think the Spurs fans would be as harsh on Conte as they have been & I think he wouldn't have been sacked, but let's be honest the football is atrocious, the worst part was he never changed it up, never tried anything different, when it's not working you have to adapt & he didn't even try!
The hierarchy at Tottenham is an utter joke, Danny Rose pointed it out in that documentary when he said players would go complain to Daniel Levy whenever Mou shouted at them. Bunch of cry-baby pre-madonnas. Add to that the fact that they spent money on players Conte clearly did not want shows how much of a sham this club is. "Waaaaaa, we want good football. Waaaaa, we want trophies. Waaaaa we want to beat Arsenal". Spurs don't deserve any of it with these clowns running the club and these supporters being entitled to something they've not come anywhere close to earning.
I do think the in your terms “selling soul to the devil” approach would work if levy gives them money and a process will work with time but neither have been given the correct resources to succeed
I think perhaps many Spurs fans were naive in expecting his football to not be this negative, however as a Spurs fan myself I have nothing but respect for him post-tenure. Whilst his comments were unprofessional, they were absolutely necessary and I love that he has called out the hierarchy and our lazy players. Daniel Levy, and ENIC are the bigger problem at Spurs but so many fans cannot see past it being the manager's fault. I think arguably the divide in our fan base is the largest I've seen in a while now. Until we make changes at board and ownership level, it feels as if whatever manager comes in, nothing will drastically improve. Levy only cares about top 4 for the income, he does not care about the club. Way too much of a narcissist that cannot admit to owning his mistakes. I'm numb to Tottenham at the moment. I love Poch as much as the next Spurs fan, but I can't see how he is the right option given he's returning to the club with many of the same players, and likely not enough backing from the board once again. Way too many Spurs fans stuck on this promise of nostalgia. Nagelsman as an opportunity is exciting, but it feels like we'll be here this time next year too.
DIsagree here. Look at the statement given by Lewy for release of Conte. He's not even wished him well or mentioned him properly. That's really poor behaviour from their part and just shows what probably led Conte to do what he has with that rant.
Conte getting sacked on Arteta's b'day - Poetic Justice ! All the bootlicking at the end of last season was laughable 😂 Conte didn't outsmart Arteta to a top 4 finish, Arteta just ran out of players. There was the press conference on top of that, calling Arsenal postponing the Spurs match as 'unfair' when they did nothing the other 18 clubs didn't do. Labelling Arteta as someone who complaints a lot 😂 And now he's losing his job on Arteta's b'day, you couldn't write this! ❤ About time people realise that he's just a Poundland Mourinho.
@Cerfpve Explain Soren Lerby, Jurgen Klinsmann, Otto Rehhagel, Errich Rebbeck, explain these guys? How about one better? Explain Poch at PSG? Oh what about one better? Camacho at Real Madrid? Managing is NOT easy. Look at history before typing.
@Cerfpve I just did. All those managers didn't win anything decent with top clubs. 😂 But Nagelsmann did and he did it at a younger age at this point your choosing to be a dickhead. 😂 Him winning trophies as well as maintaining an above 60% win rate since he started managing is actually quite impressive.

I am an Arsenal fan too so the prospect of Nagelsmann managing Spurs doesn't fill me with joy haha
@@jaddaou7170 nah he's still to young and unproven to be looked at for those really big jobs. He's definitely an exciting talent but bayern took a big risk promoting him there so soon and it hasn't completely worked out for them
Spurs win the next game and Levy then sticks with Stellini and Ryan Mason until the end of the season until they miss out on CL. IM CALLING IT
It's actually so. They are in charge till the end of the season
I'm not sure he'd want to leave Feyenoord but Arne Slot could be a worldie of a hire but would Levy give him the time and fiancial backing is another question
where does Conte go from here. none of the top 6 italian teams need him i can only see Fiorentina or Udinese perhaps be able to afford him outside of those top 6. other than that maybe a club in spain where his tactics would work well. cant see a club like Atleti letting go of Simeone just to play arguably worse football even if his profile is similar.
Idk what conte expected though? He was acting like spurs did something wrong. They’ve gotten him richarlison, lenglet, Bissouma, perisic, spence, porro, Romero. Spent plenty. Unless they were signings he never wanted? Was he promised more? Just seems like another job where he’s thrown his toys out the pram again because he’s bored 😂
I honestly feel like we would've achieved something or at least had some form of a deep cup run if he didn't have the worst year of his life but also it kinda sucks that he took it out on the players and basically threw in the towel on a job he was given to try to change the culture of the club. Also it's really gross he basically spat in the face of not only the club but also our fans who welcomed him with open arms.
Happier with 6th and no trophies if it means we play attacking possession based football.
Poch got rid of the older players last time and there are more of them whenever conte leaves.
During Conte’s time Spurs have signed a bunch of young players that could be part of the rebuild: Kulusevski, Risharlison, Porro, bentancour, Bissouma and Djed Spence.
Tottenham are a mess. In the last 15 years, they've wasted so much talent with nothing to show for it. Bale, Modric, Kane and loads of other excellent players and whenever they have a chance to win something, they choke.
remember they sacked jose just before the cup final... what if they had won with him?....
Slightly torn on whether to bring back Poch. I feel like that could end in tears as well, particularly if Spurs don't back him in the manner he desires and it becomes deja vu. Nagelsmann may well feel that he is beyond the Spurs job, and given how unfairly he left Bayern (and that they are continuing to pay his salary after he was sacked until the end of his contract), I can see him more likely taking time away and biding his time until a more suitable job arises. I would like to see Sérgio Conceição (Porto) or Rúben Amorim (Lisbon) at Spurs. Both seem like that could bring a clear identity that Spurs have lost in the last few years.
bringing back a former boss is normally a bad move,but poch knows spurs inside out and his heart is still there
Arme slot (Feyenoord) I could also see ending up at spurs
Enrique - definitely don't have the playing squad w/ technical skills to play possession-based football. Maybe in the future if we get some AMs & a younger squad.
Nail on the head Jimbo, both Conte and Mou thought they were better than spurs (go on banter lords say they are) and with that mentality they were always doomed to fail.
The reality is they are better, these are the people that are gonna make you Spurs a winning club but if they want to keep acting like they are already a top club that wins trophies and that they don't need these top managers then let the circus continues
@@prosqer quite clearly they’re not as good as they are in their own heads because they both played horrific football and won nothing at the club. Both failed miserably.
@@celtic69 mate, are you ok? they sacked mourinho before a final, goes to roma and wins a trophy, conte just won the league with inter milan. SPURS IS THE PROBLEM
@@prosqer Thank you
Just checking in. The stick barrier analogy might’ve been the most Brent thing James has ever done 🐌🐌🐌
Conte rated us at about 7th place when he started and said the CL qualification was a miracle. We chose to sacrifice football to play his (similar to Jose M) anti football. Conte has done okay and left us in a not bad position. He is however predictable and dogmatic. The next manager will have to play attacking football with a poor defence it will be difficult but at least we might see the chains loosen and our team play some attractive football. Rather than this sideways backwards defend rubbish.
Potter would of been the best manager for spurs really
Nagelsmann, Poch, or Mason. I would love any of them.
We needed to be beaten though, Levy has a massively over inflated idea of where the level of the club is. We have a huge gap to bridge before we can consider, consistently winning trophies.
Being told by a huge figure in the game that the club isn't structured for success, in public, is exactly what needed to happen. Levy doesn't have anywhere to hide when it comes to this next appointment. The moment a new manager complains of the same issues, questions will be asked of Enic and rightly so. Daniel hides from his failures with "behind closed doors" conversations all too often.
De Zerbi should be their priority at any price
I've been saying for ages that Graham Potter would be a good fit for spurs
Actually, “conte partiro” is the perfect headline in this situation
Do you think we'll see Conte in the prem again? It feels very Mourinho esq in that he's burning his bridges on the way out.
Yes is a winner😂😂 come on... he can go to big teams with big mentality... i see conte in manch city,or liverpool... he will win everythink in a club like this❤.... who do not understand conte mentality is a big loser... who criticized conte interview is simply a loser😂😂😂😂
@@rosariorusso7777 what a childish response.
I really don't see him at either city or Liverpool, he never lasts more than 2 minutes at a club as relationships start to breakdown. Both city and Liverpool like stability with a manager trying to build something not a quick solution.
If he's such a winner with a big mentality, why is he running away cos it's got a bit hard?
@@benfulford3943 you cannot explain or teach a donkey... how to run like an a real horse🤣🤣 that why i will not lose time to explain to you what a winner mentality is...
Sorry this was the only example coming up to my mind...🤣 this is why england will never win a trophy because i can bet on it.. england will never win a trophy... forget about that😅
Anyone who is criticized conte... is a loser trust me😅 and conte with the right players and club will win as always... because is a serial winner... tottenham mentality so poor for him... this is the true my friend😅 criticizing one of the best manager in the world is like... to have huge slices of ham on the eyes... come on🤣🤣🤣🤣 mourinho,pochettino,conte... amd some one else.. all amazing managers... they was all bad? Or is tottenham club mentality so poor? Ask this question to your self before shooting sentence my friend🤨😅😅😅... amazing managers went to tottenham trying to change the mentality of the club... but if you born a donkey.. you will never became a real horse ... that's the true mate.. sorry😅
Spurs played much better under stellini.....conte returns they lose to sheff utd, and Southampton
Interesting to see what happens if stellini and spurs win most or all of last games and qualify for UEFA CL
Will he be offered top job? Will he take it? 🤔
I think Poch will come in. People say he hasn't won anything at Spurs but neither's any manager since Ramos. Getting them to the CL Final was still a magnificent achievement.
Poch achieved far above expectations. He made us a consistent CL team that was challenging for things. It's such a shame that he wasn't back to rebuild the squad as he wanted.
Stellini got Conte's blessing to take over.
We do realize that 50M of the the money that Conte was allowed to spend was spent on securing Romero as a permanent. He did not receive 1 defensive upgrade while at the club.
Every one asks what spurs fan moaning about your 4th but it's how we've gone out in all the competitions
Crazy man leaves crazy club...rational
If EPL had trades, Conte and Potter might just have been a win-win. Conte with a club that spends loads, and is similarly ruthless in its pursuit for winning; Potter who comes across as nice, nurturing, and who - without the weight of huge signings and expectations - thrived (see: Brighton).
Potter would only get six months at Spurs because of Levy but I agree the style would be a good fit, plus he'd do wonders for certain players
Looks like Europa league for Spurs next season.
Nagelsmann to come in and be Spurs' Tuchel
The reason they don’t play beautiful football is lack of creative passing players I think
Surely nagelsmann holds out for a bigger job that could be on the horizon
If Spurs want "trust a process" manager then Spurs shouldnt have sack Poch in first place. Poch is the manager that bring Spurs into top 4 but becuz of bad result in his final season, he deserve a sack? Cmon just admit it that Spurs is not an ambitious club to begin with. Both Mourinho and Conte already prove it. So good luck trying to win Trophy in the future..
Spurs could have waited until may and just not Renewed his contract.
But Conte got the 💷 and is free to join inter or AC Milan
Still holding out hope for The Fallout Part 2... 😁🤞🍀🌠
I tell ya what if the next Tottenham appointment and signings go extremely well, these conte quotes could age terribly
Heal turn means turning bad mate. Face turn is turning good.
“The guys that think they’re better than the club”. Erm… they are better than the club. Look at mou and conte’s trophy cabinets and look at spurs’ cabinet.
James I love you, you're the man, but I don't think you know what a heel turn is
When we appointed Conte, the same thing was said. “Levy is the only scapregoat”, yet here are many in the media putting all the focus on Conte while we go another year trophyless
So Levy is responsible for Conte’s awful tactics and the player’s poor form? Get real.
@@Delete240 Levy appointed the manager, Levy signs the players. If I hire someone at my company and they don’t do their job, then it would be my fault for hiring the wrong person. Levy gets the praise when things go right so he deserves blame when it goes south.
@@jaedon7446 levy appointed Poch. Levy Signed Lloris, Son, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Eriksen, Dembele, Dele Alli, Bale, Berbatov, Keane, Van De Vaart, etc, so what’s your excuse for them?
@@Delete240 all of these signings were 6+ years ago??? Clearly none of those signings has put us any closer to a trophy so what is your point? When we were our closest to a trophy, we did nothing but slowly release those players and now are in a state of constant regression.
For all of the nice football though, what did poch win at spurs. Not a spurs fan but he was there for years and he didn't win anything? So nice football and process doesn't guarantee trophies.
Remember comparing mason to Clive Allen in 5 years. I think mason is the future of this club
He did throw stones and hit the mark everytime 😂
He really didn’t. He was just trying to protect his own image. He’s a hypocrite.
@Kian Hall oh yh, the history of the Tottenham is littered with trophies and hard fought comebacks... oh wait
@@11JTmc I didn’t say he was entirely wrong genius🤦♂️
@Kian Hall so he's not wrong, but he's a hypocrite... with nothing to back your statement. And then call me a genius for being correct about him not being wrong... genius 😂😂
@@11JTmc bro did you not learn to count past one? Funnily enough, there’s this thing called ✨multiples✨. That means that (in this case), Conte said MULTIPLE things, and he was right and wrong in different areas. It’s not rocket science you absolute tool. Did you fail to graduate nursery school?
Maybe they didn't tell Conte about the Go Karts and other exciting new frontiers for the former football club? Or perhaps he simply doesn't like Beyonce?
Feels good to be first to this vid as a gunner 😛
I am so happy United didn’t go down that route with Conte. So far, Erik Ten Hag has clearly been stern with the players, strict in their preparation, and players say he is obsessed with winning (pretty cliche but still excites me). He’s earned so much respect for me this season.
I think if Poch was the answer he'd have been hired already
Spurs bottled it again. They take a top 5 coach one that most ppl believed would win them something. They took that and bottled it, that team should be no where near champions league football but Conte dragged them to it last season. Absolute bottle jobs once again
Technically........Conte is sacking Spurs & Levy.
We all hate Levy. But he barely made a transfer mistake with Paratici, Nuno and Conte saga.
Daniel Levy gave Conte first choice players like Kane, Son, Kulusevski, Perisic, Porro, Bentancur, Lloris and Romero.
With 1-2 quality players Conte would've won a trophy with Spurs but he gave up very easily.
Are you starting to understand why people hate Levy?
I think even with pep they would find a way to go spursy
Nagelsmann is never going to spurs
Conte was right. He was too big for Tottenham.
Best comment ever
I don't get it.. what was wrong from what he said??
He was the manager so it wasn't appropriate for him to say it. Whether it was true or not.
Sorry but people do not understand conte interview or conte mentality... is simply a loser... 😂😂😂 because is a fact he is a huge and serial winner.... so tottenham had so many nice managers so they all winners.... so is tottenham mentality the loser😂😂😂 so conte did right to say everything he said in the interview because at least good manager do not going to tottenham because they know the poor mentality of the club😂😂 so i loved conte to say what did he said and pubblic that is a good lesson for people unprofessional dazzette❤❤❤❤
AHHHHH QUE LO QUE!!!!
He wasn’t sacked. It was mutual. He won’t get a pay out. He basically walked.
He will get paid, they always say for optics
Dunno what the point in this is.
Spurs are one of the worst run clubs in the league. Maybe if they helped their managers more they wouldn't be in this mess.
If people like Daniel Levy can't stop being so stingy they'll end up losing their top 4 place in the future to Newcastle, Brighton or Brentford in the long term. Aside from Kane, son Højbjerg and Bentancur their squad looks like a team of mid table strugglers. It's a miracle they're top 4 currently.
Best spurs era in 40+ years
Funniest spurs era
@@j.s3300 Says a lot that the 'best era in 40 years' yielded a single trophy.
@@pinealdreams1064 thats the point. Spurs havent been a trophy winning club for a LOOOONNNGGGG time.
The common theme with us is the same dross players. All poch boys have to naff off
Jesse Marsch, I think his playing style and the players at spurs would be a great match
A massive problem for Conte was Arsenal! Playing amazing football, top of the league whilst Spurs are fighting for Champions League spots, if Arsenal & Liverpool swapped positions I don't think the Spurs fans would be as harsh on Conte as they have been & I think he wouldn't have been sacked, but let's be honest the football is atrocious, the worst part was he never changed it up, never tried anything different, when it's not working you have to adapt & he didn't even try!
Stallini will be better than conte, Mason is rubbish though and his too quiet to be a manager.
finally
Early slug
The hierarchy at Tottenham is an utter joke, Danny Rose pointed it out in that documentary when he said players would go complain to Daniel Levy whenever Mou shouted at them. Bunch of cry-baby pre-madonnas. Add to that the fact that they spent money on players Conte clearly did not want shows how much of a sham this club is.
"Waaaaaa, we want good football. Waaaaa, we want trophies. Waaaaa we want to beat Arsenal".
Spurs don't deserve any of it with these clowns running the club and these supporters being entitled to something they've not come anywhere close to earning.
I do think the in your terms “selling soul to the devil” approach would work if levy gives them money and a process will work with time but neither have been given the correct resources to succeed
It is the history of the Tottenham…
I think perhaps many Spurs fans were naive in expecting his football to not be this negative, however as a Spurs fan myself I have nothing but respect for him post-tenure. Whilst his comments were unprofessional, they were absolutely necessary and I love that he has called out the hierarchy and our lazy players.
Daniel Levy, and ENIC are the bigger problem at Spurs but so many fans cannot see past it being the manager's fault. I think arguably the divide in our fan base is the largest I've seen in a while now. Until we make changes at board and ownership level, it feels as if whatever manager comes in, nothing will drastically improve. Levy only cares about top 4 for the income, he does not care about the club. Way too much of a narcissist that cannot admit to owning his mistakes.
I'm numb to Tottenham at the moment. I love Poch as much as the next Spurs fan, but I can't see how he is the right option given he's returning to the club with many of the same players, and likely not enough backing from the board once again. Way too many Spurs fans stuck on this promise of nostalgia. Nagelsman as an opportunity is exciting, but it feels like we'll be here this time next year too.
Kane is surely gone too by the way, if he stays for another season I'll probably cry with happiness. Tottenham have failed Harry Kane.
DIsagree here. Look at the statement given by Lewy for release of Conte. He's not even wished him well or mentioned him properly. That's really poor behaviour from their part and just shows what probably led Conte to do what he has with that rant.
Ugh. They should have waited until the end of the season
Conte getting sacked on Arteta's b'day - Poetic Justice !
All the bootlicking at the end of last season was laughable 😂
Conte didn't outsmart Arteta to a top 4 finish, Arteta just ran out of players.
There was the press conference on top of that, calling Arsenal postponing the Spurs match as 'unfair' when they did nothing the other 18 clubs didn't do. Labelling Arteta as someone who complaints a lot 😂
And now he's losing his job on Arteta's b'day, you couldn't write this! ❤
About time people realise that he's just a Poundland Mourinho.
Nagelsmann is so ridiculously overrated. If he wasn't in his 30's he wouldn't get spoken about like he does. He's achieved nothing so far.
He's won the German Cup and is a 2 time super cup champion at 35/6... what are you talking about...?
@@triple_r_va Oh nice, huge achievement that is, with Bayern Munich...
@Cerfpve Explain Soren Lerby, Jurgen Klinsmann, Otto Rehhagel, Errich Rebbeck, explain these guys? How about one better? Explain Poch at PSG? Oh what about one better? Camacho at Real Madrid? Managing is NOT easy. Look at history before typing.
@@triple_r_va You aren't really doing anything there to prove he's not overrated.
@Cerfpve I just did. All those managers didn't win anything decent with top clubs. 😂 But Nagelsmann did and he did it at a younger age at this point your choosing to be a dickhead. 😂 Him winning trophies as well as maintaining an above 60% win rate since he started managing is actually quite impressive.
