Conte won the Serie A 3 years ago but sure the game has passed him by. He finished 4th in the PL 2 years ago with a weak team but sure the game has left him behind. Even Jose who I don't rate right now has still won the Conference League with Roma which is more than most and a bigger accomplishment than anything superstar Fat Ange has accomplished.

Conte didn't play terrorist football at Juve, Chelsea or Inter. The Inter teams especially were great to watch with the defenders and midfielders able to play the ball they way they could to create chances all over the pitch. It was only when he came to Spurs and had greats like Dier, Davies, Royal, PEH, Skipp, Richarlison to work with that the football became "terrible" even though it was better than anything he predecessors played.

Angeball is not that great to watch this year, it has relied 100% on other teams missing sitters, today needed the PL to mismange the extra time so they could fluke out a win against mighty Sheffield United and as usual couldn't do anything in the early rounds of the 1 Cup game we have played.
