Tottenham Hotspur are currently in their worst form. In ten matches in the Premier League, they were only able to win five times and lose five times. They are currently in ninth place in the standings. Of course not a good result when you look at the Spurs in the previous few seasons.
Harry Kane and Son look so dull right now. No goals are born every week from them. If you are the manager of the Fantasy Premier League (FPL), I am sure you will also hesitate to put them in your squad.
With a series of bad results, Tottenham Hotspur appointed a replacement for Nuno Espirito Santo. On Monday (1/11/2021) Tottenham announced the end of their partnership with Nuno. On Tuesday (2/11), they officially signed a new coach in Antonio Conte. source
The question is, is Conte the right person to improve the game while controlling Tottenham's achievements?
In his autobiography, Giorgio Chiellini wrote that Conte's greatest strength is "reset". That is, when Conte manages a team, he will make that team one hundred percent his. He would make the team do what he wanted down to the smallest detail. He will 'kill' anyone who will not obey his word.
Tottenham need someone like Conte. Tottenham need someone who can unite the team both on and off the field. It's been a long time since Tottenham looked to have cohesiveness, especially in the game. Not to mention, they were hit by rumors that Kane would leave and made this team even more fragile.
The first thing Conte needs to do later is talk to all the players, especially the senior players in the team like Kane, Son and Hugo Lloris. If Conte is able to win the hearts of these senior players, it will be easy for Conte to make the team achieve again and the Kane-Son duo will be dangerous and sharp again.
Conte is not a defensive coach, but a coach who can optimize the composition of the existing squad.
This weekend, we'll see what Conte can do with Spurs when they travel to Everton. Can Conte lift the form from Spurs and get back into the top four? Let's see.
