Is it this easy to deflect from a loss?

In the first half I would say we played a low block. Burnley outplayed us and it was only when they scored they sat back. I was seeing us in a 5 4 1 with Son tucking into the left of midfield and Kulu on the right.

Typical Italian defend mentality.

If he goes then you got to blame Levy.
I accepted Conte to replace Nuno but I knew that the appointment was the wrong one the same with Mourinho. We needed someone to build for the future someone like Poch who would manage with limitations and rebuild the team.
Levya refusal to acknowlege that the squad requires a complete rebuild is setting us back years and wasting more money had he made the correct decisions at the right time. This is not hindsight as all of us and our dogs knew what was required.

Levy should have known what he's getting himself into with Conte. You back him or he walks.

January window we didn't do enough. A RWB was essential. Left ourselves short in CM with 1 in and 2 out. And needed an extra CB as we go to shiiit without Dier.

They've one more chance in the summer. I doubt they will listen to his warnings.

Conte doesn't want to wait till summer...odd behaviour for me.

I would have backed him if this was August 2022. But its Feb and we have 2 games in hand despite losing to Burnley and he's acting like we are in the relegation zone.

He is really volatile. One game he's saying it's the best team he's managed in terms of dedication to learn..Next game he's ready to walk....welcome to the Conte Show

I do still think if conte is here next season we will see a better team.

Conte's comments were the last thing the club needed at this point - the players, the fans, the management. It has even more negative impact than the lousy result he was commenting on.
He just has to accept this season will almost certainly be a write-off and plan for next, in terms of who he thinks he can keep and where he can find the right replacements.
Take that to Levy before the end of the season and say "If you do this, I stay". Surely he owes us that?

Trouble is...you have teams dictate to you how to play....even City told you to counter attack at the weekend with their ridiculous highline....they basically wummed you, & fair play you called their bluff, but they could afford the loss....& then you lost to Burnley

spursy as fack

Very odd behaviour. But as he says...maybe he doesn't know how to work with some of these players. We don't have many fighters in our team.

IF Conte is here he needs his Chelsea's moment and change formation to 4 4 2 or 4 3 3 or even 4 5 1.

Last night should be the final straw.

Any negative result against Leeds(if he is still here) and he walks. If we win then we are walking a tight rope for every game until the end of the season.

You could see at the end of the game trouble was brewing

Perhaps he should have made his excuses and not done any media til today

He quite rightly blew his top at the officials when just 3 minutes of added time were shown ….Burnley were time wasting at kick off ….3 minutes was a joke

He was in a rage from that point

Not excusing it as it’s no good for moral these outbursts but I understand this reaction straight after losing to Burnley when you have just beaten Man City

It was pure frustration

Not sure Levy can be blamed. All the supporters clamoured for Conte, and Levy brought him in, and then it should be up to Conte to earn his very large salary. That`s how it works. You get paid big bucks, you have to use whatever tools you have to deliver.

Conte seems to be some bipolar maniac. Putting a mic in front of him after a game is media man dream. The press officer needs to step in here and extend the time between FT and interview

Everyone already knew that though. If you want Conte as your manager that’s the price you pay. If the club don’t like it they should have thought about that before appointing him.

Levy can 100% be blamed. Don’t appoint Conte if you are not going to back him

To be fair it Levy, it’s not just Conte, he doesn’t properly back anyone, so at least he’s consistent.

Of course Pep was backed, he has spent over a billion, Spurs just don`t have that kind of money to spend. And Klopp was backed after a while, not straight away.

Because Nuno and Jose were the wrong appointments and never wanted by most the fan base , especially Nuno

Conte is still a top manager and not a spent one like Jose ….have you seen how it’s going at Roma?!

I won’t blame conte for the mess he has inherited and I don’t blame Jose and Nuno for the mess they had either

Big difference is I didn’t want them as manager but I want conte

The only common denominator in this is levy and Enic and the players ….and the players is on levy and Enic too!

We are 400 million in the black for ffp

I don’t care what city spent or Liverpool my point is they were backed

You can’t tell me we couldn’t have pushed the boat out a bit more and spent a bit over the asking price to secure a centre back and a centr midfielder in January

Levy and Enic are just about what profit they can make ….4 players out , 2 players in equals less wages for a few months and greater profits

I wouldn’t be on their case so much if they didn’t rip the fans off left right and centre

If they lowered the price of everything to go hand in hand with their spending on the squad it would all be more palatable

They are a bunch of waaannnnkkkkeeerrrs

ENIC out debate is so tedious. especially when the protests have 15 spurs fans, 2 local dog walkers, and a camera fan filming on their phone. 3 banners and those twaaaaats from wearetottenhamtv on the loudspeaker.

pathetic and pointless protests

Some fans don't think Conte can do any wrong. That's all it is.

This season was always a rebuild. 2 games in hand and we are comfortably 6th. Some have lost perspective.

In truth we are damned if we do and damned if we don't.

Conte in many peoples eyes meant Top 4, if we brought in Ten Hag..Top 6 would have been OK.

Enic out is such a Simplistic view of our issues. But some fans like this.

The whole ship needs cleansing..fans, player mentality, recruitment process, management decisions and tactics , academy strategy and loan system.

Many factors have contributed to where we are now, not just Levy and Enic.

Every one is shouting spend but we can't spend until Summer. So the shouting will continue for next 4 months
But there will be no blame on the manager...he's perfect.

Should have listened to Poch and got on with the painful rebuild

Instead it’s been a painful three years
