I'm loving the fact that the spurs fans aren't attacking Conte and just applauding the honesty
because we know the truth of what he's saying
Conte is just too good for a banter club like Spursβ¦their owner, fans, players and everything about them is a joke
On KRplus maybe. I personally know three spurs fans, and theyβre all hating on him big time
@@bradhuygens not this Spurs fan. It needed saying because itβs been 4 or 5 years overdue. Love Conte for speaking up. ππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»
No oneβs going to mention that heβs also just playing the politics of the game..
Heβs telling everyone the history of the Tottenham in a respectful way.
ππππ
πππ
Bravo Conte
πππ small edit : Ze history of ze Tottenham
Nice one ππππππππππ
Hardly a meltdown... the man is respectfully telling the media what's wrong with the club.
It's a meltdown; he may have just lost the confidence of the entire playing squad, putting the management in a position where it's them or him. He may be right, but they cost a lot more money... or maybe he just fired everybody up... idk, one way or another, I'm sure there are plenty of dm's getting passed around the locker room
Media always going agai st foreigners
Agree not a meltdown at all. Apparently you not aloud be honest or its meltdown.
@Kurt_Philanderer the pure reason why it's not a meltdown is because he has slowly and calmly made his points to show why top managers in the past have failed at this club..
Thanks conte for saying what fans have been saying for years enic and levy out.
Im a Spurs fan and this was amazing to listen to. I've been waiting for 20 years for someone to be honest and tell it like it is!
Absolutely right on the money. Spurs have a habit of destroying top managers. They have the best of everything and HK you need to listen and maybe once you need to cut the bullshitt which Yiu are a master of
" We need to improve" " we need to do this etc etc" you lot do nothing. You are so good though you still score but you are part of this crap. You need to run a hundred miles away from this Club.
Amen
Did Mourinho not say the same thing
conte is winning manager, he doesn't want to compete for top 4 every season, that is not achievement, he wants to win trophies but the players has no desire or hunger same as him, so he need to moved.... spurs was hired 2 winning manager in Mourinho and Conte but both failed to win any trophies...sad but true...
@@AnthonyMonaghanyea he said the players sucked as well but never said the clubs suxked like Conte has. And Conte is right.
Conte basically just said everything frustrated Spurs fans wanted to say. Never have I seen a manager call out an owner so direct like this itβs amazing and they need to held accountable. Conte aired all their dirty laundry this guy is a master chess player
Master Chess player will be sacked and nothing will change.
Maybe, but he's a sh**ty Manager who only cares about himself. He doesn't care about the players or the club. He never has. Awful.
It's not just the owner the players are at fault for all of this too
Masterclass Chess five knights at the back
Conte is a great manager. Not a fan of his style of play. Hes taken a lot of flack lately and he has never done anything like this before. So it's likely what he is saying is correct. Really respect him after that!
Folks, itβs just Conte, honest and direct, no beating about the bush.
You should already know what he brings to the table by now.
Beating about the bush is right mate, only thing is there is no end product just like spurs,
The man is a meth anyways, hes looking for a way out here during international break, he wants the sack but he should just resign but there is an element of greed!
Here we see self preservation! everyone is responsible for this patch except him? yeah real integral honest chap here.
Lol, Conte has never done this and especially not the press
8th place apparently π
β@@celinho68 lol he have done it a lot with the Italian press
One of the best press conferences ever. Says it how it is. Heβs 100% right. Love it.
Signing Conte might be Daniel Levy's biggest regret - he has openly called out the clubs lack of care both on the pitch and internal management.... and as a spurs fan, this is great. Voicing the sentiments of the supporters for years.
Agreed
Conte for Spurs is like Ragnick for United! Publicly calling out! Someone gotta state the facts.
Yeah but Conte has also been an awful manager. Negative football, little progression of any players, always blames everyone else but himself.
Sooner he goes the better - no one wants him there just as much as he doesnβt want to be there. Go back to Italy to live with his wife and daughter and spurs can move on too
β@@StevenWalker-ns5ii I think you are talking about Mourinho. Conte is a class act
@@delpierochch when will people realize conte is just Mourinho without European pedigree
Conte is telling the truth. Spurs has always had this culture
Yep bunch of wet wipes
Not always enic levy yes.
@@flgoak9703 spuds have always been a small club, Audi cup team at best.
@@flgoak9703 lmao keep expecting to win the world cup totter..
Not a meltdown. He's speaking the truth and I am sure every Tottenham fan will appreciate him saying these
Too right. Sick of these shithouse bottle job players.
But Mourinho became a villain for doing the same. Lol... you lot are clowns
Conte sacking is big loss
This is no meltdown, this is a message to not only Spurs, but anyone lacking desire for the cause they are meant to be fighting for, a cause to die for
Just a manager being brutally honest.Respect to Conte
You can hear the mixture of fury and hurt in his voice. His lament comes from a place of pure love for the game and it's damn near heartbreaking to know so much, but not have any power to change anything. My interpretation anyway.
He wants to win and lives and breathes football 24/7.
Conte is a elite manager he's useto winning every season and games with his style of football but levy doesn't want support Conte properly with top quality players
Great comment mate. ππ»
Fearless commentary from Conte.
Camaan we need more Italian coaches in the premier league ... this is awesome.
He should tear them down to nothing like when people join the army then rebuild them into actual footballers.... ban mobile phones inside any club property! forbid footballers wives/klinger-ons ! when they play football it's not a holiday! no need for any women to go with them....
Truth is NOT a meltdown
Say it louder for the people at the back π€π€π€
My respect for this man has gone up tenfold. With Conte you get truth whether you like it or not and for too long Spurs have been in denial of it. Bravo Conte π
The passion.....unbelievable.... great man, communicates with passion in 2nd language - this is hard to do. Klopp does it, Tuchel did it, awesome guys.
He's right about it all. Spurs have had great managers and they haven't won anything in a long time. Clearly it's not a managerial problem
And ironic is every team Conte went to, he won a trophy
Tottenham are shambolic
Same as Mourinho
@@khotunkhan3950 yea Spurs will always be a losing club
Conte is absolutely right. For a long time now I see overpaid players not putting in the effort. Whilst no one challenges this then it will always be this way. Conte is daring to change this, he is a good manager for doing this.
Heβs pulling his hair out and I totally agree with him! Itβs been all about Kane and his personal record in the last few seasons!
Lol! It's a weave - a bit like Elton John's!
@@walidel-saleh6040 Childish comment.
@@CB-xr1eg It's the truth, you cry baby. Anyway, you're not even a Spurs fan, so your opinion doesn't count, you gooner. COYS.
Being half Italian and a Spurs fan myself, I get the emotion and the frustration. For Conte, the situation is like a pressure cooker and all it takes is the pathetic sight of Eric Dier pretending to be a defender for it to become too much to bear.
Some are saying how can he go back into the dressing room?
I say the players owe him an apology, but then again, these are the same cockroaches that got Poch, Jose, Nuno and now Conte the sack.
Married to an Italian for 28 years ......thats not a meltdown nor is it "firey" just an Italian breaking a situation down in an honest fashion. Loved the raps on the table to emphasise the points. Classic.
as a Man Utd fan i really expected Spurs to kick on after that new stadium was finished but it never happened
The Arsenal route
A new stadium doesn't guarantee success.
Well done Antonio Conteππππ its took years for a manager to speak out to the media and set them straight.. hes correct about every aspect hes spoke about, its not just the managers fault like the media makes out.. every player has responsibility and yes they all get paid more than neurosurgeons so yes they should be able to handle stress and pressure just like surgeons etcπ
π Get paid > Neurosurgeons π
Very poor characterization in the title because this is not a #meltdownβ¦this is a coach being honest about why he feels his team keeps under performingβ¦ππΏππΏππΏππΏ to him for saying it
Im not a spurs fan but i absolutely loved this interview. I would want the same from my manager too. We live in a world were we can not speak to harsh truth about facts and if you are apart of that problem you deserve to be called out. These players are on very high wages and they are basically NOT doing their job. Now you can not do your job because your not qualified or you can not do your job because your attitude stinks and if its the latter then you deserve this interview. Hats off to CONTE big up
Well Conte's hit the nail on the head. Maybe now we have context as to why he's been begging to get sacked for sometime now.
He want to get sacked before Spurs drop out of top 4
@@bardo0007 π―
I'm a Liverpool fan and I think this is so refreshing to see. I'm not here to laugh at Spurs. I talked with a Spurs fan and he agree with basically everything he said. Conte is saying the quiet part out loud
Good on him!! There's a possibility he might be trying to get fired but there was a lot of conviction in his body language and his words
I don't believe it's in his character to try get fired, he isn't doing a Ronaldo.
He is genuinely airing his grievances with the club and he's speaking facts.
Everything he's said is 100% true
Its refreshing to see some honesty and passion, i think he is bang on . Players of all clubs cruise along and manager gets blame all the time
Kudos to Conte! All true and he was already holding back. There is so much more he could have said, but he was trying very hard to respect the club.
Iconic. This is the truth those fans need to hear.
The truth has been spoken now. Conte is really a world class coach
History will judge this man as being the one who told the truth about this club and itβs owners. Many people will criticize him for doing this but just like Mourinhoβ/s heritage moment, Conte will be the one to finally call for it what it is.
Conte is putting this down straight β€. Hope he ainβt sacked for this. Fr
So wish all managers can come out and be as straight forward and honest with the press!!
Refreshingly honest. Good for Conte.
After Conte's comments, when Spurs start winning trophies, Spurs owe this man a Big Thank You.
Never wanted this guy as our manager, but I can't disagree with anything he said, he is literally saying what the fans have been for years
Why didn't you want him? Because he's won trophies and the Spurs fans don't want that as they're not used to it?
If this is his parting gift, I'd like to say thankyou antonio
This is true spirit for someone who really thirsty want be on top... He is 1 of top manager..he talking the truth
Conte! I remember him playing for Juve, he was great, he played with passion exactly as he want now his players to be. He knows what heβs talking. And until now he has been a manager, who always win and give result. Responsibility is always on the manager, but I believe in what he says now.
What a coachπ
This isnt a meltdown. Optus sort yourself out. Conte being passionate, honest, open, direct.
The Media trying to paint Conte bad but guess what the fans π― backed him for everything he said now they hide π their faces in shame!!! On SkySport a pundit arguing with another female pundit yesterday about what Conte said, a lot of people defended Conte some media in UK π¬π§ trying to turn or spin the narrative for the fans to turn their back on Conte!!! But itβs clear they are loosing grounds shame of British media they hate brave people who are honest!!!! Look at the journalists here trying to spin what he said when one said βThe other time you said YOU HAVE SEEN FIRE π₯ IN THE EYES OF YOUR PLAYERS, lolβ¦Don CONTE looked at him in his eyes π and said I SAID I WANT TO SEE FIRE π₯ IN THE EYES π OF THE PLAYERS ALSO IN THEIR HEARTSβ the other media tried to spin the statement like he is to blame CONTE responded by saying βYou look for excuses all the time for this players you look for Alabai π ββ pure factsβ¦Conte just put the media in their place they have no grounds to play their usual games to make Conte a scapegoat for Levi!!!! Jose Mourinho will be laughing π
I love his thick Italian accent. Passionate speech.
Thatβs great that youβre into blokes with thick accents. But that has little to do with what heβs saying.
A team fighting for seventh place.... Italians are skilled in tactics and in analyzing the psychological aspects of players
The fact that Conte is top 4 with this reject of a spurs team shows how good of a manager he is.
I mean it is kinda weird that spurs have had soooooo many good managers and still can't win a trophy
New Spurs fan here (long time Ange fan). Watching this interview for the first time, sounds ljike Conte was the wrong man for the job but maybe said the right things to pave the way for Ange. Go Spurs,
Fat Ange will goπππ
Lol. Yeah right. Sure Ange will win a trophy ππ
Italian spirit, I like it
YES! Been saying this for years. Too comfortable for players. Just go through the motions. That bit about not wanting to play with any stress is spot on! Spurs can keep their "worldie in training" videos. Do it on the b!oody pitch! If they don't do anything on the pitch Spurs training ground just becomes an expensive gym membership!
Finally a manager that speaks the truth
and now he's gone
The reporter misquoting him and framing his question the way he did is what conte is talking about with the βexcusesβ there is only so much an individual can do to motivate it is up-to the recipient to internalise it and find some desire to achieve. Seriously journalism in the west has gone straight down the toilet, itβs no better here in Australia as well, lazy reporting looking for sensational headlines and creating their own narratives to sell their shitty opinions. Conte will always have a special place in my heart for winning the premier league with Chelsea in 2017
This is what a year of Eric Dier does to ya
Conte nailed it π π π π
Jesus - can you imagine if he was at Chelsea now, he would literally explode
If he was at chelsea and spent half a billion like potter did, they'd be back at the top
He'd do much better with the chelsea squad tbf
Must be so frustrating to see what Chelsea has
100% agree with these guys, these are harsh realities step up and play the game. This team always plays for 4t h not the trophy
Tottenham sacked him because he said heβs sick of the losing culture at the club. Tells you everything you need to know about them
I love this guy..... respect respect respect......the players its on them.....Conte always had the best tactical acumen......
Thats a real coachπ₯
This is Football heritage of Tottenham as described way earlier by Jose Also. He was absolutely right
What an absolute legend!
Nothing levy can do. Conte contract up at the end of the season and he's a multi millionaire he will walk into another job. He's right situation will still be the same, sacking managers has proven it makes no difference if players not good enough.
He has gone up a notch in my books. Iβve always rated him highly. Great to see a manager telling it how it is βI get paid money, the players get paid money β¦ for what?β Spurs will now sack him and continue as they are. I wish Conte the best of luck at Real Madridβ€
And truly, they've sacked himπ
Spot on, alot of clubs have same problem. Richarlison is all about him, he does his own thing.
i feel bad for him bro. He doesnβt deserve this at all Spurs have always been a fucking joke.
7:48 great comment to the most important part of a club the FANS, hats off to you conte you will be missed.
Clear Facts.
Respect.
I love him, been loving him π
Love it Antonio! come to Palace mate π¦
Fair point, love the honesty.
This interview should be taught in football academies from a very young age. Well said Conte, and yet the media paints you as the βdevilβ
Still defending the players and blaming you.
This is English mediaβ¦
Top top manager and top interview. Mans passionate about winning and telling pure facts. Go to a big club and do what u do best
feeling the 'FIRE' π₯
I do not follow football much but I heard about this on the radio so thought I'd give it a watch. I can see this mans passion and integrity and honesty in what he is saying. I believe him. The Owners should support him to push through meaningful changes although he may just quit and take his abilities somewhere appreciative. Bravo.
This rant is legendary. And will probably age very, very well. Grande Anto. We salute you for throwing spurs under the bus before you got sacked.
This man is a living legend
Honest views and the guy's got BALLS to come out and say what he feels.ππΌ
How very refreshing π
As a lifelong Spurs fan... sadly this is the truth. As a manager, I don't know what Conte does to resolve this. As an owner, I don't know what Levy does to resolve this in the short term. Does he sack Conte, because he's right and has allowed this to happen? It might be the only way forward for the club, in the short term. In the long term, if they don't see it through with Conte, then we'll be having a similar performance with a difference manager, so who knows what will happen!
Honesty makes an Italian even more Italian
If what Conte is saying is correct why has Ange been able to get the same players to perform much better than Conte did? - specifically Bissouma, Son, Udoggie, Porro, Kulesevski, Sarr, and Romero. The problem was Conte's coaching style and the fact that players and fans don't want any thing to do with turgid defensive football.
and what did Ange win with this team? lol he will finish 8th and trophyless that is what conte call spursy
β@@baldinib1055ππππ
Every word is true
Thank you conte
Maybe not the right coach for us but he is telling the truth and has the balls to do it
sp whos the right coach then, someone that solves these issues how exactly
@@vader745 problem is that he is speaking about mentality, character and they are not a team. But thats exactly his job to do. Look at Poch area. We were so many times 1 goal behind and turned so many games. Easy to say he did not win a trophy. But to be true are we such a big club to win trophies? He was the right coach without financial power to buy trophies. Conte got many players and speaking about character etc. Sometimes it just will not work and Conte is great coach. No blame to him
as a tottenham fan this press conference was heartwarming , look at arsenal ,even if they were in the terrible situation(not this season) they won community shield , we want to see changement,it seems like tottenham dont want to win but only making money ,thats really upset , i am not a tottenham fan anymore ,i am going to cut everything from them because the spirit is contagious i dont want to be weak . thanks you conte for everything you deserve better
If you are not tottenham fan, do you mind saying what is your favouritw club now? (Only if you want)
@@justorivarola i will go with real madrid for their fighting spirit
@@yveslioneldiomande9968 kool, i am atletico fan but respect your choice, and in premier league, i used to be spurs cause of my dad but am gravitating more towards arsenal, not just bc of the league positions.
@@justorivarola yeah , actually is not cuz of league positions but it seems that this club dont want to change ,
@@yveslioneldiomande9968 yeah, its sad tho bc that club has a lot of history and its sad to see its potential go.
Conte is an exceptional manager, whose rΓ©sumΓ© speaks for itself. However, when he took this job, he was well aware of all the issues related to the culture of the club. He took the job knowing who Levy was and how he operated. He took the job knowing the history of Spurs. Conte was so aware of the situation that he rejected the offer the first time. What on Earth did he expect to happen? Also, half the players on the pitch yesterday were ones he recruited, so, there's that.
I don't think there has ever been a great manager who didn't have a robust ego. Thinking you can be the one to succeed where others fail is part of the makeup of top flight management; you just can't be right all the time.
Bringing a few players into a squad that doesn't sweat for the badge isn't going to change that; they will either play monkey-see-monkey-do or think "why should I bust my ass every match day when noone else does?" The last player I watched in a Spurs shirt who left everything on the pitch was Erikson...
@@tomj819 You are absolutely right about the role that ego plays. However, Conte, at some point, has to accept that he also plays a role in what is currently happening at Spurs.
@@sherwood9917 surely. The problem is that what is currently happening at Spurs is no different from what has been happening at Spurs for the last 5, arguably the last 7 seasons.
Probably the players don't take it seriously enough. To win trophies at the highest level you really need to be willing to fight with all you've got, you need extremely strong passion and desire to win. Kane and Son are technically exceptional players (definitely among the best on the planet), but sometimes I feel both of them don't have the mentality it takes to win. They seem good guys, in their mind football is most likely just their job. They don't really seem to have that aggressivity, that ego, that extreme desire to win that is often necessary. Same thing seems to lack a bit in the English national team by the way. Lighting up that fire, that passion and team spirit is usually one of Conte's greatest strengths, so there really must be some issue beyond his control
@@mircopaul5259 Again, he was well aware of those issues before he took the job. There is no manager on this planet who is unaware of the issues at Spurs.
Love conte happy he had the balls to say this
8:59 is totally brutal π
Conte π
He's an honest manager! As a Spurs fan he showed us courage but the board has let him down.
All the best coach ahead!
He is a winner as a player. He is a winner as a coach & manager in Italy and in England. The winners mentality speaks from the heart with honest assessment of player's and team work and the management. He a winner. God bless Antonio Conte.
LEGEND
Itβs the history. The history of a the Tottenham.
Well said, it's about time someone spoke the truth.
Am here listening to conte after tot lost 5-0 first half against Newcastle... alot of sense
Thank you Antonio. That's all.
He is spot on,players come to spurs with no expectations, no pressure if they don't win anything,we have a very passionate manager here that has had enough and is speaking the truth and will probably leave club now but I hope he stays.might be the kick of the arse spurs need.
The best post match interview β€οΈβ€οΈπ€£π€£π€£
This is golden
