    Tbh I think that they have backed him.
    In 10 months, we have gotten rid of Winks, lo celso, Ndombele and Dele for no money and have brought Kulusevski, Bentancur, Richarlison, Bissouma, Forster, Lenglet, Perisic and Spence in to strengthenthe squad. On top of that they made Romero a permanent signing and signed Udogie (Loaned back out).

    That's around £200m in transfers

    These transfers were also done in a really quick way too instead of dragging things out as happened in the past.

    Not sure how much more those in charge could change to show that they are listening to what Conte wants.

    That's why Spurs Twitter was so ****ing irritating towards deadline day, as they were acting as if we hadn't signed half a squad of players - and were jumping on our U21s losing games as "evidence" of not supporting the team

    Can somebody find a Spurs fan who looks like Rob Newman to run their own blog and Youtube channel?

    He was supposed to retire at the end of last season, but his timewasting dragged it into September

    So this idea Boehly has about All-Star PL teams, North v South is a lame duck.
    It wouldn’t even be close would it?
    I mean you’d have Arsenal players bottling it and overrated Chelsea players.
    And Kane is very good, but Haaland is phenomenal.
    And Ronaldo doesn’t even get a few minutes off the bench

    Where does the North end and South begin with PL teams?

    It's a desperate time if we are fighting over Villa players.

    Fulham above Chelsea as it stands.
    Forest look weak despite the 200 signings

    My worry about Forest always was that, much like Fulham a couple of promotions ago, they'd manage to combine needing almost an entire team to gel coupled with binning off the continuity and momentum the previous season's squad had

    Brief check, did they bet big on a lazy Ligue 1 midfielder that had a suspicious lack of bids...?

    Really poor from you.
    He has not been named in the 25 man squad but as one of the 56 under 21yo players eligible to play first team football if called upon <doh>

    Suppose it make sensational news for clowns though :emoticon-0100-smile

    He's a ****ing rapist. <doh> You'd think that one would be enough for any squad.

    Good start from Wolves. 1-0 down after 55 seconds and 2-0 down after 18 minutes. Great...

    And now Wolves are down to 10. Looked a ridiculous challenge, to be fair. Karate Kid-esque.

    Haaland has currently scored more goals in the Premier League this season than 12 of the teams.
