    <laugh> The refs were fatter and slower than me.

    The standard football was surprisingly good though. And the fans were different class, despite or perhaps because there were fewer of them. Celebrating with Walsall fans at St Marys on the last day because we were going up and they were staying up <ok>

    Yeah he must have been really envious of Poch when he was lifting the PL trophy. He's questioning their ambition, which your players will if they don't win something soon.

    Yes. If his name was Virgil Van Dijk, I would do exactly that. I might even pull the trigger too.

    I'd either make a brilliant football club chairman, or I'd be a ****ing liability. I'd have fun though, while it lasted.

    Doesnt matter what you say Bluey...it doesnt matter what Conte did or did not..them are the utterances of an envious man..simple as. A trophy does not solve every issue in people achieving contentment in their lives if that was the case he would have shut his wig and cracked on with the job in hand..but you know how it is...hater's gotta hate. Poch never gives a **** about any other gaffer..why? because he has no insecurities that need feeding.

    Conte is full of envy

    I think it would probably be the latter <laugh>

    But I can appreciate the sentiment!

    He's smart, i'll give him that. But this is nothing more than a pretty cynical attempt to curry favourite with Putin, and avoid the fate of a lot of other oligarchs who also took advantage of an old drunk to line their own pockets.

    "If [Spurs] don't win the title, it's not a tragedy," said Conte.

    "If they don't arrive in the Champions League, it's not a tragedy. If they go out in the first round of the Champions League, it's not a tragedy. If they go out after the first game that they play in the Europa League, it's not a tragedy.

    "Maybe for Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United and - I don't know - Liverpool, it is a tragedy. You must understand the status of the team.

    "Every team has to understand what their ambitions are. If their ambitions are to fight for the title or win the Champions League, you must buy expensive players. Otherwise you continue to stay in your level. It's simple."

    "My question is this: What are Tottenham's expectations?"

    He's very smart indeed, but he gives back.

    Mind games early doors could backfire but he'll probably be safe enough. Jose fired one at us but it was pretty weak and Klopp swatted it.

    He gives back what's politically opportunist to give. That's it!
