Never not amusing.
Best quote ever that was
Less than 1 xG total across both legs. The Sanchez for Kulusevski sub was the cherry on top.2 very tame shots on target in a 2nd leg at home in the UCL when you only need 1 goal to bring parity. Horrendous performance.
@balaks - You still enjoying this Conte football?
Normally if a centre back gets red carded, you’d understand if a forward needed to be sacrificed. But they started with a back 3 and had only 7 minutes left to get a goal. It made zero sense taking off a forward and bringing on a CB. Baffling.Less than 1 xG total across both legs. The Sanchez for Kulusevski sub was the cherry on top.
It is perhaps the most pragmatic thing any manager has ever done ever to the detriment of their own team?Normally if a centre back gets red carded, you’d understand if a forward needed to be sacrificed. But they started with a back 3 and had only 7 minutes left to get a goal. It made zero sense taking off a forward and bringing on a CB. Baffling.
What? I didn't watch it, but I have never bought into the Conte hype. Surely he's actively trying to get sacked now.Normally if a centre back gets red carded, you’d understand if a forward needed to be sacrificed.

This season has been a real struggle I gotta say. We just look totally out of ideas and all our good attacking play has evaporated.2 very tame shots on target in a 2nd leg at home in the UCL when you only need 1 goal to bring parity. Horrendous performance.

He’s pretty much asking to be sacked in his post match interview!What? I didn't watch it, but I have never bought into the Conte hype. Surely he's actively trying to get sacked now.
Like I said from the start, your problem is and always was Conte.This season has been a real struggle I gotta say. We just look totally out of ideas and all our good attacking play has evaporated.
There’s no way they are getting top 4 ahead of Liverpool now. We’ve all enjoyed the laughing at Liverpool but they are on the up and spurs are heading in the complete opposite direction. There’s nothing between them in the league points wise.Spurs must be very worried by the lack of goals lately.
Hope they pick up in the league and secure 4th, with United 3rd or higher
It's much more than Conte. It's Levy as well. He is more of a problem than any manager.Like I said from the start, your problem is and always was Conte.
What happened to Son? He looks terrible, can't do anything right.
Physically drained him? The guy looks knackered and can’t seem to control the ball. Surprised he’s still starting with Richarlison on the benchConte happened to Son.
Doesn't get mentioned enough. Or rather, whenever it is mentioned the finger gets pointed at everyone elseConte should be ashamed of his European record. Kane once again not doing it when it matters.
What's the reason Son just stopped being great? I mean, he was firing on all fronts and then Conte came in. Such a talented player really. Is he not used correct by Conte, is it his confidence or what is it?This season has been a real struggle I gotta say. We just look totally out of ideas and all our good attacking play has evaporated.
Kane not showing up is easy scapegoatism imo, when it's probably the team that's at fault.Doesn't get mentioned enough. Or rather, whenever it is mentioned the finger gets pointed at everyone else
He scored 1 goal in the CL this season in 8 games.Kane not showing up is easy scapegoatism imo, when it's probably the team that's at fault.
Kane's overall been great against big teams this season. You can't win'em'all. And he even plays with a boring team.
But in Europe there's not much going on for him. It's a bit hard to judge whether that's because it's Europe or because the sample-size is just not that big.
This season in premier league:
Scored against: Chelsea, City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, .
Assisted against City.
Only two big matches has he not scored in: Arsenal (home) and Man Utd (away)
That's 7 teams he has showed up for and only 2 he hasn't.
... And 2 assists. That should also be considered. 1 in 8 is crap, but affecting 3 out of 8 games is not crap (when playing with a crap team). Just average of a striker his calibre.He scored 1 goal in the CL this season in 8 games.
No one has doubted Kane's ability to score goals, in the league, he scores loads of goals, same with England in qualifiers.Kane not showing up is easy scapegoatism imo, when it's probably the team that's at fault.

2 in 6 in CL knockout games. These are the moments you want your biggest and best players to turn up. He hasn't.... And 2 assists. That should also be considered. 1 in 8 is crap, but affecting 3 out of 8 games is not crap (when playing with a crap team). Just average of a striker his calibre.
Crikey. Even Weghorst would have matched thatHe scored 1 goal in the CL this season in 8 games.
Is he basically saying they win a lot of matches but never win any trophies?
