Surely has to be the end. I think we're really at a point where we're now just delaying the inevitable and ruining any chance of salvaging something from the season.

The players don't look like they're buying into the setup, they're playing without knowing if the manager will even be staying which can't help, the manager himself has never seemed like committing to the club (for reasons I fully understand mind) and any positives just don't seem worth persisting with.

I don't lay all the blame on Conte at all but it doesn't seem to be working now and there's far from the greatest suggestion that it will work in the future.

I’m done with this negative boring football. No cohesion, very little quality, no creativity and the same formation issues as every single match.
I’m also not going to waste anymore money on this club. I’ve been going since the early 80s and I’ve always loved it but these days I come away thinking what a waste of money.

You’d struggle to find a bigger Conte fanboy on SC than me, but that Sanchez sub was simply inexplicable and inexcusable

Yeah even as a staunch Conte supporter, it's over. The Sanchez sub was atrocious. A team devoid of any creativity and ability to express itself. The wheels have fully come off.

I’d genuinely have Christian Gross until the end of the season over this
God that announcement video could be wild. Just a hand flashing an Oyster card all the way from St Pancras to Seven Sisters. Then boom…camera pans up to Chstistian Gross on the sky walk waving his Oyster card and shouting.

“ I’m back bitches! “

Unless we have a permanent replacement ready to come in - I can't see it happening.
I’m quite sure we’re already talking to the replacement, and if it’s Poch I doubt those discussions need to take very long.

Ironically it’s what we did in the last days of Pochettino’s tenure.

No matter whether things are going well or badly, the team is always a reflection of the manager.

Conte needs to be sacked ASAP.

Please no more reactive bullshit.

If Poch is up for it then I'm sure that Levy will offer him the job. If not and no-one else is available, I can't see the point.

His subs today prove what a complete tosser he has become, would rather protect a 1-0 loss& exit, then go for it.

Sooner he fucks off the better.
Totally right it is so absurd as I never knew protecting a 1-0 loss was a thing but you summed it up great. That is his legacy.

I feel bad for him, he has lost 3 close friends and had serious health problems, whilst being away from his family.

There is little wonder his work performance has gone down

Unless you've been through it, its hard to understand what this can do to someone

He should have walked away or taken a sabbatical when he needed surgery.

He should put in his resignation tonight and a take a break from football.

He isn't a shit manager like many here will claim I no doubt, but it hasn't worked out this season.
