Conte is just emotional. Just because he has childish meltdowns does not mean he plans to leave. He has improved the performances despite the team having a few horrible results where the whole team looked poor and uninterested. We have had results where the entire team looked like they were top class professional footballers and we have had some mixed performances too.
Those complaining constantly of the dross squad should understand that 80% of the clubs in the PL would want those players, including the ones that have beaten us like Brighton, Burnley and Southampton.
Conte has improved the general level of play and the results since arriving and he has definitely improved the mentality which I believe was/is the real problem. Yes we are still a work in progress and yes we need improving in key areas as many say, but assume Conte will walk if he doesn’t get 6, 7 , 9 or whatever new players is pure speculation.
What Conte has done this far takes balls because Players like N’Dombele were among the most talented in the squad yet do not have the mentality he needs and demands. Not to mention bloody expensive. What he has managed to do is set a clear objective in terms of both play and mentality and both have been generally stronger than before he came and is still improving. Yes, we struggle against the clubs that sit in, and yes we have still looked flat against those sides playing that style. I also would be the first to agree that he seems to be too rigid and inflexible when these games cause is problems.
What we need to understand he will have his reasons for sticking to his style and he will need more time, improvement in key areas and financial backing. Will we challenge for a title? Who the fuck knows but let’s wait and see how this season ends, how the summer transfer window goes and stop speculating on whether he wants to be here because when I watch him on the sideline when we score there is no doubt.
Let’s get behind him now for the run in and if he stays then stay behind him. If he fucks off then we replace him. Simple. No player is bigger than the Club and no Manager is either.
Stop whinging on every misinterpreted word twisted up by the media and it will be easy to do.
