Antonio Conte outburst: Tottenham to decide head coach's future in ... (Sky Sports)

Antonio Conte believes some players are happy to stay in the comfort zone and settle for mediocrity, no matter who is the coach; Conte also believes if the ...

He has had several approaches in the last eight months - none of which he felt were right. James Ward-Prowse sticks it in the back of the net in the 95th minute to stop Spurs going third. He didn’t look well, left again and then came back. You are appointing his brother, his coaches and so many of his backroom staff. It was a genuine world class manager and someone Spurs wanted in the summer. He’s not the kind of player Spurs would sign. The over reliance on one individual has been too much. Instead, his comments reflected what he has felt for a long time and he did not intend to attack the players or the board. Last season Tottenham finished strongly to overtake Arsenal and this season was supposed to be one where they built on that. He believes some players are happy to stay in their comfort zone and settle for mediocrity, no matter who is the coach. “When Conte was appointed, I thought it was a great appointment for Spurs. There has been no improvement in mentality, attitude and hunger.

Tottenham players expect Antonio Conte to be sacked (Evening Standard)

Tottenham players on Tuesday morning began filtering back to training, still in the dark over head coach Antonio Conte's future but with the growing ...

Conte was asked by the club for an explanation of his comments at St Mary's and insisted that his criticism was directed at the squad and not Levy. Most of the squad are on international duty and are not due to return to the club until next week, which has given the chairman some breathing space to thrash out the terms of Conte's exit and decide on short- and long-term succession plans. Conte will not back down after his stinging criticism of the squad at Southampton on Saturday, and it is seen as only a matter of time before his departure is confirmed, although the club was this morning remaining tight-lipped on reports that he would be sacked by the end of the week.

Conte is almost certainly going to be shown the gate here in the next hours/days and we should give the players the benefit of the doubt until they start doing stupid things in public view. We know that a good chunk of the team is privately seething over Conte’s comments but a few of them are still in Conte’s corner. Maybe this implies that Hojbjerg is one of those who’d still like to keep the gaffer around? “The coach has not been satisfied” might be the understatement of the year, lmao. We are still where we want and need to be in the Premier League. “It comes from the fact that, unfortunately, we did not get the results we as a team and club wanted.

Conte's rants to the media have also not helped. But on the flip side, Conte hasn't done himself any favours either. Jose Mourinho is on record slamming the existing structures of the club.

This approach, for a club expected to be competing for the title this season, has failed to work.

“But I think he has to elaborate on how he feels before you as a player can start measuring and weighing.” His tone was sympathetic towards Conte, a manager who has been good for him, but he did suggest he ought to have explained himself more clearly to the players. Amorim would be interested in the role and expensive to recruit. He did the same after Jose Mourinho’s dismissal in April 2021, losing the League Cup final but winning four of his six league games for a seventh place finish and Europa Conference League qualification. Previously, he had been expected to leave at the end of the season upon the expiry of his contract. Spurs have started to check the market for Conte’s successor and are making plans for his immediate departure.

Harry Redknapp OPEN to shock Tottenham return with Antonio ... (Goal.com)

Former Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp has thrown his hat in the ring for the potentially vacant Spurs role, with Antonio Conte's departure imminent.

Most recently were Crystal Palace who, sitting just three points off the drop, parted ways with relative newcomer Patrick Viera after a winless start to 2023, electing to [bring back the veteran Roy Hodgson from retirement](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/roy-hodgson-returns-crystal-palace-out-of-retirement-replace-patrick-vieira/blt6a566c79fc27312b) until the end of the season. Asked if he’d consider a call to aid Mason in that eventuality, Redknapp said: “Yeah of course, I would love that. It’s a difficult job and when you’re young it’s important to have someone experienced there with you. Many saw it as a sign of Conte wanting out of the north London club, and Redknapp has admitted he wouldn't mind a return to the place he called home between 2008 and 2012. It’s a lonely job and you need all the help you can get.” It’s hard to say no.”
