Yeah. Think overall sentiment after a few days to reflect is while the football was terrible for large parts of games, what was thrown at him was pretty insane. The kane saga. The Argentina vs Brazil match that wasn't. Not getting the 1 player he asked for etc. And, there were patches that were good (City and 1st half vs Chelsea) in amongst the dross.I feel the same, it upsets me that his abiding memory of Spurs will be getting abuse because he really did look sad. Equally his reputation is getting trashed in the media which just seems uncalled for, whatever we achieve this season, he contributed 5 league wins, which isn’t an easy thing, especially given what he had to put up with.
The season Poch got sacked he only had 3 wins and a couple of draws from 2 more games. Even Ramos didn get what Nuno did, given that he actually wanted the job, there is something profoundly unkind about his treatment.
It's exciting to have Conte of course it is, but I like the club and football a bit less today than I did.
So - still glad he's gone as he was never the right style of manager. But feel like levy and fab should reflect on how they set someone up to fail. And genuinely hope Nuno takes a break but comes back somewhere and succeeds.
