Fabrizio Romano shares what Tottenham players think of Antonio Conte on first impression
the first impressions Antonio Conte has had on Tottenham Hotspur’s players – and it is a positive one, since signing on.
Tottenham’s squad arrived on Tuesday afternoon, later than normal, after Conte had been installed as manager. He has penned an 18-month contract.
The 52-year-old is said to have introduced himself to the squad, who have been heavily criticised for some of their performances during 2021-22.
Sunday’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester United was the final straw, with Spurs fans even booing Harry Kane for his lacklustre performance against United.
Romano has shared what the players have thought of Conte in terms of first impressions. Many are impressed with the Italian, who is seen as a coup.
Romano on Conte: Tottenham players finally out-ranked by boss
Towards the end of Mauricio Pochettino’s reign as manager, the Argentine was pushed out by the players. The same in regards to Jose Mourinho.
Nuno Espirito Santo was immediately undermined when appointed – given he was either sixth or seventh choice. Now, Conte has stepped in.
For the first time in a long time, Tottenham’s long-standing players will be outranked by their manager. They will think twice about leaking stories.
An issue which has cropped up numerous times of late. Not only that, but their dismal running stats will surely improve over the next few games.
