    Conte and Jose both seem so miserable. Wouldn’t want to play for either.

    While I agree that Conte has completely flamed out, he's not the first coach calling Spurs out for having a happy to lose mentality. Juande Ramos said the same when they arrived there.


    Tottenham should have arguably sold Kane and Son for ungodly amounts after their CL run and started from the beginning with something new.

    You can't argue having a losers mentality when you fire your coach before playing a cup final.

    I still can't believe they did that. Spurs of all clubs firing a proven winner prior to a final. Incredible decision from an – sorry to say – irrelevant club.

    What Conte did was state facts. He’s clearly had enough

    I don’t like him as a coach for this club. His personality and his methods would never work on the first team, and those are pretty aligned with how he managed the dressing room as a captain so it’s not like he’ll suddenly change when he gets to the first team.

    Arsenal in general most fun team in the whole sport right now. Minimal expectations, 100% success

    Raul was Captain the last time the team won back to back league titles, which is something many people are clamoring to see the club do again.

    Seems like he might be just the right guy at the right time to come in, win and defend a league title. Something neither Del Bosque, Ancelotti or Zidane have been able to do.

    They have failed in most of their head to heads the last few times they have topped the league. It's one thing they need to rectify

    He was also the captain in one of the worst periods of club history and very well known to have created cliques in the dressing room. Your point?

    The one thing Mourinho did great in Madrid is predict that Xabi will be a good coach.

    Think Nagelsmann took the Bayern job one step too early but then again, you have to take that opportunity when it arises.

    I think he's managing his post playing career wonderfully, he will hopefully manage this club, just not too soon

    Raul and Xabi both have my heart. I'd love the club to give both a chance eventually.
