Bournemouth 2-3 Tottenham: Spurs complete fight back through ... (Daily Mail)

BOURNEMOUTH 2-3 TOTTENHAM: KIERAN GILL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: The comeback winner for Spurs was bagged by Rodrigo Bentancur after their 19th corner of the ...

Bournemouth looked in control but in the 57th minute, Tottenham gave themselves a chance. Conte brought on Dier and Bentancur with Tottenham making it 2-2 in the 73rd minute. There was some ugliness by the sidelines when Moura clashed with a Bournemouth ballboy. A cross by Adam Smith and a header by Moore, who wanted to get to the ball more than Royal. Once the game resumed, five minutes of stoppage time were announced and Tottenham won yet another corner. But Conte wanted to manage Dier and Bentancur’s minutes and dropped them for game No 9 of the month. Tavernier squared the ball to Moore. In the 23rd minute, Bournemouth led 1-0. Conte made those calls with a view to Tuesday’s trip to Marseille – a match they cannot lose, otherwise it’s curtains for them in the Champions League. Tottenham looked more like The White Tripes in the opening exchanges as Bournemouth took control of this match. Ryan Sessegnon kickstarted the comeback with a tidy finish from a tight angle. Finally, Rodrigo Bentancur struck the stoppage-time winner from Tottenham’s 19th corner of the match.

Finally, some subs happened in the second half to get this win. Both players have been quite inconsistent in their recent outings and former Tottenham player Ramon Vega believes that the two players should never start for Tottenham together again. Vega added that both players are defensively vulnerable and Spurs will suffer with both of them on the pitch at the same time.

Tottenham might have fought back and won against Bournemouth yesterday, but Antonio Conte was not a happy man for much of the game.

Failure to heed instructions will only frustrate Conte and at the end of the day, see him walk away as yet another trophyless Tottenham coach. And the last thing Spurs’ players want is to be upsetting the boss.

Fiery Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is turning Spurs into 'nasty ... (Daily Mail)

KIERAN GILL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: Antonio Conte doesn't like it when his team comes across as nice. 'Conte-ball' isn't designed for that.

But as Conte said, Tottenham felt the comeback was inevitable once they got the bit between their teeth. The majority of their corners have been in-swingers, as they were on Saturday to devastating effect. Conte tweaked his team for Bournemouth with Marseille in mind. ‘It was great to see the desire of my players, the reaction they had. It was then that Tottenham started to resemble a competitive team. Nine of Tottenham’s 26 goals this season have come from corners, the most from any Premier League side. That second-half mentality will be needed from the start in Marseille tomorrow. ‘I asked my players to show more personality, to take more responsibility,’ Conte said of his half-time team talk. I could see in their eyes that they decided to win this game. They won their duels. It was polite play. It was safe, stale, stodgy.

“I came back when I knew the goal was regular. To not only move the ball and show ‘Look, we are good and so nice’ but in an effective way. Had Spurs lost they would have visited Olympique de Marseille next week for a vital Champions League clash under a cloud.

Tottenham boss Antonio Conte shown up by Man Utd as Spurs ... (Daily Express)

Tottenham opted against seriously rivalling Man Utd for Christian Eriksen but are being made to regret their decision.

It is not as if Conte was not aware of his qualities, saying back in April: "For sure, to work again with Christian is a fantastic opportunity because I enjoyed the time we spent together in Inter Milan. Instead, though, Eriksen landed at United where he will strut his stuff until at least the summer of 2025, rendering a return to Spurs highly unlikely. He is thriving as Casemiro's partner in a 4-2-3-1 formation and he is showing Spurs, unfortunately for Conte, that he could have been ideal for them as one of three midfielders in a 5-3-2. He could even have played as one of the two forwards behind Harry Kane in a 3-4-2-1. The playmaker produced a superb cross for Marcus Rashford to score the only goal of the game at Old Trafford in a 1-0 win. While the north Londoners came from 2-0 down to beat Bournemouth 3-2 on Saturday, the performance left a lot to be desired.
