All the best managers are terrible terrible losers. When it happens they say ridiculous and often insulting things.

When their cycle is up those things that before could motivate and create unity will often have the opposite effect.

It's a fascinating line they have to walk. I'm not sure if Contes remarks will be effective or they're just designed to get him out of there but they can easily be construed either way.

Say what you want but he's not wrong. He'll fuck off in the summer and we'll hire someone else, but we're going to be in this same position again in 18 months time.

The Conte vitriol from fans is music to Levy's ears now - in fact, it's probably why he hasn't sacked him. The more people think Conte is the main problem the more it deflects away from the actual problem (Levy).

Not saying I think Conte should stay (I think it's now clear that it's just a bad fit), but as a fanbase I think we need to keep focus on the actual issues rather than just blaming manager after manager.

I've said previously, if Conte is going/gone then please give the necessary people both barrels in public and put us fans under no illusion what the next incumbent is dealing with in terms of squad at his disposal and constraints from above.

He’s in the wrong but he’s massively highlighting the fact that our chairman can just go and buy a player that the manager doesn’t want.

Years of the same fucking core and we expect something different?

Please just put someone in charge that understands football.

Conte can fuck off but Levy can fuck off too.

The way the club is run is completely flawed.

Actually had to login for this. Sorry but these are disgraceful comments. Fuck off Antonio.

Never seen a manager say things like this about the club they're managing, he has to be gone tonight.
