This is starting to remind me of a corporation that continuously replaces the CEO in hopes of achieving a better result. In the end they merge with another company......Arsenal? :duck:

Whoever takes over (Sky Italy are reporting Conte has been offered an 18 month contract) they have a favourable run of games to get some feelgood factor back at Spurs.

And walked when there was no more money in the kitty.

And his teams don't play the 'Spurs' way. They do win though -if he has the right players.

Well various reports are saying the deal is done. We may not like his style of play but he doesn't take no shit.
He can at least get our players making an effort again... bottom of the league for distance run in games at the minute.

I'm hoping this means his demands for a big transfer kitty must have been met. Slight optimism back. 8)

Welcome to Tottenham Antonio. 🤣

Three nil up after half hour. Now holding on at 3-2 with 10 men. 20 minutes to go.

5 goals, 3 red cards...

Eventful start to Conte's reign!

(sorry I know this isn't Premier league. Europa conference league doesn't deserve its own thread)

Welcome to Spurs, Mr Conte. Sublime performance for 30 minutes, 3 up, then 3-2 at half-time, and then complete mayhem throughout the 2nd half! Blimey, I hope he has a strong heart... :laugh: :laugh:
This is the way

Nuno is set to receive a £12 million pay off after being sacked. Not too shabby for a crap 4 months of work. :shock:
