That bet was even more retarded than me picking Canada to win and Jonathan David to score.
I'd say Spurs are his level atm imo. He was too good for Watford & Everton, but he's not good enough for top clubs like City, Madrid etc... his main issue is being inconsistent. Jesus is probably a better choice as a centre forward as it stands.Hot take: Richarlison's wasted at Spurs.
The entire backline other than Romero isn't good enough to play Conte's system. Davies was an average player in his prime, which he is now past. Royal is just a Brazilian Aurier. Perisic is past his prime. Dier and Sanchez are fucking brainless. Sessegnon is injury prone and just not good enough. So five seems to be about right.If Spurs back Conte in the next transfer window and bring in 4-5 new players then Richarlison might hit peak form again if he has competent people who can feed him balls.
Yeah unlike England supporters nobody will threaten to kill the players for losing. But it was funny seeing every one of them on Twitter immediately jump to "Fucking Niggers!" When rashford and the other two shanked their penaltiesI'm just messing with you. Canada and USA are in same boat. No expectations so anything positive is gravy.
CM is a problem for Spurs too. Hojbjerg is playing well atm, Bentancur is also playing well under Conte, Bissouma hasn't played enough and i don't rate Sarr. Other than those 4, the rest are reserve players.The entire backline other than Romero isn't good enough to play Conte's system. Davies was an average player in his prime, which he is now past.

Problem is, the fans are already turning on Conte. Once the boos start, Levy will probably panic and fire him instead of getting rid of those players who are the real problem. Native Spurs supporters, the ones who fill the stadium every week, are pathological losers. They would rather see the team lose 5-3 playing the "Spurs way" than watch the team grind out a 1-0 win playing defensively.
The issues and inconsistency at the back compound what would normally be minor nitpicks with the rest of the squad. I rarely miss a Spurs match and it's been the same bad habits for years now. I'd probably even add Lloris to the list of players who need to be replaced. He's still one of the best shot-stoppers in the world but his distribution is terrible.CM is a problem for Spurs too.

But yeah, i doubt Conte will be given enough time to fix the squad and start competing, he has publicly said it will take at least 2 seasons to sort it out. I like Conte too, he's a pragmatic manager. Kulusevski was a great buy though.
Oh no, i agree that Spurs defence is the main issue but i’m just saying there are other areas that need sorting e.g more depth in midfield.The issues and inconsistency at the back compound what would normally be minor nitpicks with the rest of the squad.

Betancur isn't far off from being as good of a signing as Deki has been. Bissouma has been showing signs in recent matches which is extremely promising. Sarr is still young and needs to go somewhere on loan. I wish Conte would play Spence and Gil more. Hearing great things about Destiny Udogie but he's also young and needs to stay at Udinese on loan for a bit.
This created one of the best headlines I've seen.Welsh keeper sent off. Welsh keeper was caught in a group photo with only him doing a Nazi salute as his German teammate took a photo. Uproar ensued. He then comes out and claims he had no idea what a Nazi salute was and he was just trying to get his pals attention. He was even doing the little tash. View attachment 80025
