Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

chas vs dave · Mar 11, 2023

I've been really critical, but it was good today. 5 wins in 7 in the league. Not too terrible. Long way to go though

Trix · Mar 11, 2023

He's shown me it's probably worth sticking with him until the end of the season. Players were up for it and he certainly hasn't lost them.

SwedishSpurs · Mar 11, 2023

For me the next game feels vital in terms of Conte's situation the rest of the season. A win and a decent performance like today and I could probably accept giving him the rest of the season. However, a loss and similar awful performance like the one against Sheffield United or Milan and I think it's probably good timing to make a change considering the international break that follows.

Can't really complain after a win and a decent performance.
Maybe he's not the dead man walking that he appeared to be just yesterday?
It's a funny old game.

He looked like the Conte from last season as well kicking every ball from the touchline. The players will buy into that, and that he isn't just grinding his time out until he goes.

This was a vital game for me because after the last week, it looked like all was lost.
Maybe that's not the case but whatever, it's going to be one hell of a ride to the end of the season. Buckle up.

Felt like the pressure was off a bit today and they weren't sent out handcuffed in the first half. We can play a bit in this formation, if allowed to.

Guntz · Mar 11, 2023

We’ll probably finish in the top 4 as his speciality is 1 game a week.

If that happens then it will be a much more amicable parting of ways in the summer.

Tbf, although we played well, I thought Forest were shocking and I won't be too drastic about my judgement yet.

I do hope you're right though. Ideally we finish the season strongly and end on a high note. Then the new manager, whoever that is, can take over and use some of that momentum.

HildoSpur · Mar 11, 2023

Huge win today with the Liverpool and Brighton results. Earned the opportunity to stay till the summer in my eyes. Hopefully we can finish in the top 4 and then let's see what happens.

sidford · Mar 11, 2023

Today showed he hasn't completely lost the players which but the result doesn't change anything. He's exactly same prick who was calling out fans last night, fucked up our last 3 games before this and plays shit football.
I still don't want him as manager anymore and he won't sign a contract so he's gone. Whether it's tomorrow or end of season it's done

TheVoiceofReason · Mar 11, 2023

Keep him on and backing him properly should be the plan.

PrettyColors · Mar 11, 2023

If he can get us top 4 then that alone has paid for his contract.

It's odd though because he doesn't look like a manager who is going anywhere, rather odd.

Depends how the remainder of the season goes imo.

PLTuck · Mar 11, 2023

Still want him gone at the end of the season, but got nothing against him remaining until then if today was the benchmark.

See Tony, we CAN play on the front foot if we are allowed to.

C-oops · Mar 11, 2023

Not getting excited over a win against forest, I actually remember the last few games. Still think if he's not staying he needs to go now. Let the new guy have 10 games to get to know the squad.

robotsonic · Mar 11, 2023

A far better game, but I'm over hoping for one of those every few weeks. Still waited until 80 mins to bring on any fresh legs and by then we'd already started rocking and tried to piss the game away. His treatment of Danjuma is also absolutely pathetic. There's a player there that we need to see whether is worth keeping hanging around, but I imagine he's already counting the days until the loan is up.

I fully agree with this. The guy wants to win and if he thought he could he'd sign for longer.

Football hasn't been great but if we get top 4 again he's over achieved with this squad two years in a row.

Are you kidding? Over achieved? Honestly don't know how to respond

Until we get beat next week Trix - you know how fickle SC is.
