Conte going down swinging here.
"They're used to it here. Don't play for something important. They don't want to play under pressure. They don't want to play under stress. Tottenham's story is this. 20 years there is the owner & they never won something. Why?"

now trending in the UK as Spurs fans express opposition to latest managerial target who has history of backward comments about women, same-sex marriage and racism. Given the pressure already on Levy, interesting to see where this goes.

Conte still going. "If you remember he complained about the fixtures...& Arsenal postponed a game in an incredible way, for Covid when they had 1 player with Covid. I don't forget this." Then makes the point that he could complain about having to play Burnley at 12noon Sun.

UEFA have changed their stance on Davies, who now counts as an 'association-trained' player in Europe because he trained at a Welsh club affiliated with English league. Means Spurs can register their full 25-man squad for CL without omitting a foreign player

Lucas has now come off the bench late and cost Spurs at Everton and Liverpool. Appreciate Mason is short of options but it would be much more beneficial to give these cameos to a young player (Mundle?) who has a future at the club for the last four games.

Conte says there is a "bad habit" in England of only the coach speaking publicly. "I have never seen the club or sporting director come here to explain the strategy & vision of the club. In Italy, in ever game there is a person from the club who has to go before the media."

For all the talk that Conte's approach is similar to Mourinho's, it's the opposite! Mourinho's Spurs went for it, established a lead & then sat back. Conte's Spurs sit back, establish a deficit, then go for it.

Not long ago, there was a danger that Spurs were heading for a repeat of last summer: a new manager search, Kane unsettled, a tough rebuild of the squad. But with Conte committed & money to spend, it's hard to remember the club going into a summer with so much optimism.

Mourinho says Spurs had the Shkendija goals replaced before the game after his GKs noticed they were too small in the warm-up. "I felt immediately something was going wrong. We got the Uefa delegate to confirm and it was 5cm smaller. We demand for the goals to be replaced."

It seems like someone needs medical help in the stands. Reguilon was pointing over to the crowd near the opposite touchline, where stewards have gathered, & Dier just raced to the dugouts gesturing for a stretcher & chest compressions. Game halted.

increasingly ruthless at offloading players. Aurier, Dele good examples but also loaning out Ndombele, Lo Celso & Gil. Suggests that building a squad committed to Conte's approach is priority over financials.

Of all the lows for Spurs in the past 3.5 years, this feels like the nadir & almost a logical end point of their disastrous leadership. 5-0 down to a supposed rival after surely the worst opening 20 minutes in PL history, without a manager, director of football or a clue.

Manchester United remind of Conte’s Spurs last season. They’ve got enough individual quality and the semblance of a system to cobble together a run of narrow results but are easily found out by the top sides. Plus everyone just seems a bit miserable.

Kulu & Bentacur both look like sound signings who’ll improve the squad. Would hope the summer transfer strategy is more sophisticated than Paratici targeting unwanted players at his former club but January never an easy time to deal so you’ve got to do what you can.
