He’s 1000% right. But bar calling it out, what has he done to sort it. He needs to go and Levy needs to follow…we’ll only get the former though

This really is hilarious - it's what every single rival fan predicted would happen when he was appointed.

God I love this club 🙃

Doris is far too passive with her biscuit tin game. The stupid old bint throws out plain digestives every time. What about a jammy dodger or a bourbon biscuit once in a while?
Doris just thinks of herself. Gone backwards from last season.

This comment would be more palatable 3 months into his reign, not now. He’s had plenty of time to improve mentality & resilience and if certain players can’t be improved, why are they still being selected every week?
He was meant to be an elite manager with a winning mentality. Now there is huge, huge failings above him but don’t start on mentality, that’s on you as much as anyone else.

Conte's done now. I genuinely think he's done his best but ultimately failed for several reasons. He hasn't helped himself with the passive approach and poor use of the squad. I think he knows how to win but has failed to get that across successfully to our players. He hasn't been backed properly either. And he's sometimes deflected blame.

BUT

He's also spoken a lot of truth about our club and players. The last thing our perennially average players need is someone coming in and giving them all another chance. They all need to be gotten out of the club, and Levy needs to take the hit if that's what it takes.

The mediocrity at the heart of our club has gone on too long now. Levy must realise that getting a "proven winner" manager in isn't the answer.

The signings under Paratici have largely been in the right direction. This summer we need a lot out and some real quality in.

And for heaven's sake get a manager who'll commit to a long term project and plays decent football.
Yep can't wait for the next manager to say Dier could be world class and Sanchez cost £40m, and Milan wanted Tanganga for £20m so he must be good

Holy fuck, these Conte quotes just keep coming.



If we want to change, real change, then we do need to air the dirty laundry. Nothing will change until things change at the top. Conte does himself no favours with his behaviour, but he is just speaking what is on everyones mind.

Hes right, we will sack a Top Manager fighting for 4th to hire a new Manager and fight for 4th.

Nothing will change with Levy at the helm.

Was there not supposed to be some form of success between when he was appointed and this, though?

Is he deflecting? Yes

Is he classless? Yes

Is he a winner? History proves yes.

Is he right? He’s nailed it better than anyone before.

It’s like I said Conte is like a crazy hot girl you date, it’s an absolute rollercoaster 🎢 but ultimately you’ll realise she’s a bit of a nutter and she will burn your house down so better to just part ways and keep the memories 😂😅

What do we think the chances are that he’s sacked after those comments? Above 50%?
