[Football] Antonio Conte leaves Spurs

[Bozza]

"Conte's assistant Cristian Stellini will step up as head coach for the rest of the season, with former midfielder Ryan Mason his deputy."

If Roberto goes there, he would get slammed more than Potter, wouldn't he?

Zidane anyone?

Spurs have had 10 permanent managers in the last 20 years. Either before they joined Spurs, or after they left they have collectively won 61 trophies.
They have 1 between them at Tottenham.

He got sacked on Tuesday. Could get Donald Duck in and he still wouldn’t win us a trophy.

If you don’t turn us over Easter Saturday somethings gone seriously wrong!

Be harder than you think though…

 

[Sheebo]

Nagelsmann the favourite. Rest easy De Zerbi worriers.

Roberto De Zerbi is going nowhere for a few years - loyalty means something to him and he’s at one of the best managed clubs in the world ️

Nagelsmann or Poch for Spurs.

 

[Triggaaar]

Most of you saw this coming, but I'll be honest, I didn't.

But that's because I didn't realise he wasn't sacked several days ago.

If he continues as is I can't see him going the full season next.

Of course not, it’s a cartoon duck.

Wow, yeah maybe give Donald a call!

 

[smudge]

They will come for De Zerbi at the end of the season, if he hasn't already been tapped up.

Hazza Kane player manager...







...referee?

 

[oldboyroy]

Stellini did OK while in charge when Conte was recovering from his op so reckon he's got a chance full time if results go his way.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

But weird for an assistant to take over, no? Normally they get binned with the rest of the management staff, don't they?

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

The reasons Nagelsmann left Bayern, according to German journalists over the last few days.

Arrogance (his way or the highway), falling out with star players such as Neuer and Muller, politicking within the club to get rid of the long time goalkeeping coach and friend of Neuer’s, off-field distractions.

What could go wrong?

There is more to it it seems his ex girlfriend was a journalist, who was apparently leaking stories.

He binned her off last week.

If Paratici goes for De Zerbi it shows zero planning from the club

So I expect him to go for him

He has already been doing it while Conte recovered from his op, so it's the continuity option allowing them to take longer to hire the next man if they need to...

I also assume that the time between Conte's "please sack me" rant and it happening has been legal wrangling over parting terms.
Conte is probably receiving some or all of his pay until the end of the contract (this summer), so can't work elsewhere yet. His assistant will probably go with him when he does get another job, but in the meantime would be twiddling thumbs...

Or MAYBE the whole back room team realise that this is it for Conte, so it's shop window time for Stellini?

Or MAYBE it's classic Levy - not wanting to pay out any severance for the back room team (no beef with them), so they've ended up stuck with each other to save a few £?

Who knows/cares, as long as the Stellini/Mason dream team can steer the good ship Hotspur into 8th...

I’ve said the exact same post on various threads over the years using Pep, Fergie, whoever so was just a joke. Fully aware he’s a cartoon duck.

To be fair you have a few times and you are right.

As for Easter Saturday, come off it, you have so much quality it will be massively hard for Brighton, regardless of any previous results. Would take a point now….

You do realise that Spurs are currently 4th in the Premier League, don’t you?

Where do you realistically expect them to be?

And we thought the Chelsea fans are “entitled”.

Fully aware of our league position yeah, I go to most games. I was asked where I thought we’d come in August and I said 4th. The fact we are 4th shows just how embarrassing the league is at the moment. Unsure why me thinking Brighton are going to win a football match next Saturday makes me “entitled”. :Nono:
