I don't disagree that many players seemed terrified, but I put that on them and their weak mentality not on Conte. Players had no problem making mistakes and performing when Conte was winning titles at Juve, Inter and Chelsea. It was only when he came to Spurs that these magical problems that existed before him happened and was all his fault.
I certainly don't blame his "dinosaur tactics" that won Serie A 2 seasons ago as the problem that Bissouma struggled to do the very basics of football last season.
I think we will have a more "positive" feeling around the team while getting lesser results than we did under Conte and because our fans are so weak and have such little ambition they will celebrate it.

Oh, and Bissouma was injured for a lot of last season as well.

I think this was likely the biggest factor in Bissouma's season last year, he seemed to never really get over missing time and the effects of Covid in the summer and never was able to fit in.
