"Tottenham is a really good squad if they are able to keep all the players," Conte said. "For me, Kane, now, is one of the best strikers in the world.

"If I had to buy one striker I would go to Kane. He is a complete striker. He is strong physically, with the ball, without the ball, he fights and he's strong in the air and acrobatic on the right and the left.

I mean at least he was rather nice at the end!

I actually fully agree with everything Conte said - execpt Kane being the best striker in the league.
Aguero is surely a better footballer?

Kane is overrated.

Can't do it in Europe or at National level (at the big tournaments or against good sides, yes there is time for him to prove me wrong, but he hasn't done it yet).

You know the script, foreign managers get asked about overrated English players and they say what the English media want to hear.

He seems to be upset that Spurs arent trying to buy the league like him, Mou and Pep

They tried that and failed.
And they failed before that.
Come to think of it they're going to continue to fail for the foreseeable future.

Erm Spurs are about the only team in the Prem that have a positive transfer budget over the last 5 years, unless you know of a quarter billion they spent that noone else knows about. But dont let your hate spoil a good story.

Maybe you mean player wages? It costs Man Utd Chelsea, Man city, Arsenal 2-3 million more a week to field their team.

Spurs have invested money in an academy and training facilities and now the best stadium in the country with the second highest attendance.

Main problem with Aguero is that it feels like he's injured and/or benched half of the season for the last 2 years. When he's playing at 100% he is probably the best striker though.

Let's not pretend Spurs are Burnley.
Any team who buys Moussa Sissoko deserves ridicule.

That charlatan needs putting out to pasture.

Conte is doing his best to copy Mourinho wherever he can. Took his job, talks shit about other teams. Doesn't play youth and buys proven international players. Oh and has bust ups with his own players and won the league in his first season

Europa League/CL qualifiers are FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKING brain damage to watch.

This Everton game is even worse than the Celtic game.

Players look like the Tinman from Wizard of Oz.

This Everton game is giving me cancer.

He's won a League title undefeated and had an illustrious career as a player.
He's also less of a completely hyprocritical tosspot.

Everton looked absolute shite. Sandro Ramirez looks lively though.

Ah the ole "you have to be a professional player to be a good manager" argument. Guess someone should tell gary neville that

New team, 27th July. Expected.

Please. If we get one more transfer. Let it be Alex Sandro.
Would genuinely improve us exponentially.

I rate Alonso, but he just hasn't got the pace and agility to keep up with the top wingers.

You'll get Bertrand back for 40 million.
