Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

[Spurs_1981]

If any of the lazy fuckers who have been half-assing it recently, try that with Conte, they are going to be in for a rude fucking awakening.

Daniel, you've got yourself a winner in charge, back him and let's fucking win something.

COYS!!!

"Last summer our union did not happen because the end of my relationship with Inter was still too recent and emotionally too involved with the end of the season, so I felt that it wasn’t yet the right time to return to coaching."

That's an interesting (and believable) take on why it didn't happen in the Summer.

That announcement video is so awkward, but still, exciting times. When will his first press conference be? Anyone know?

Time to get on another ferris wheel, looking forward to what this rides brings.

Bookmarking this for the Conte Out thread.

I regret being excited immediately . Genuinely though, in terms of where we are as a club relative to where he is as a manager, I can't remember a bigger appointment. Conte is at the peak of his powers. If we don't succeed then it's going to be on the club I imagine.

Alright let's not ruin it

Daniel please trust this guy... Listen to this guy... Back this guy... Keep this guy... We are on the up at last COYS ??

Hope he f****** lays down the law to Levy about the way it's going to be on the football side.

Better, Tottenham.

Do we have to do the Hans Zimmer music?

Half expecting Conte to start running away from an explosion, Michael Bay style.

Bring the passion and enjoyment Conte, smash this squad of pricks up and let’s start playing. Love this appointment, can’t quite believe it, but love it.

 

[HildoSpur]

Welcome Antonio you beautiful bastard. Scare the living fuck out of those players please sir.

Interesting to read him commenting on the summer! I'm so fucking pumped. From complete apathy to severe excitement in 24 hours. COYS!

That was deliberate to stop the obvious media negative question "why didn't you join in the summer". That's put to bed - not that I believe what he said - we move forward. I'm 58 and this is the most excited I have ever been by a managerial appointment - even better than when Venables took over.
Now BACK THE MAN!

First song Thursday has to be

"hes coming for you, hes coming for you
Antonio Conte, hes coming for you."

Designed to put the fear of God into opposition as well as players!

This club is absolutely insane. If anyone asks what schizophrenia might feel like, tell them to follow Spurs for a season...

 

[WannaDanceWithUdogie]

Conte did not want to join Spurs in June at a time when Kane’s future was uncertain and there were a number of question marks hanging over the squad in terms of arrivals and outgoings.
Conte is understood to have watched the Amazon All or Nothing documentary since first turning down the Spurs job, which has given him an insight into how the club operates and the characters of some of the players.
Although money will be made available in January, Conte is not expected to be given fortunes to spend and Tottenham may need to raise cash through sales to chase some of his targets.

Welcome Antonio Conte. Bring us silver & we can hold our heads up high.
