If we had signed Conte in 2019 he'd have already left by now, lol. Imagine him sticking around with financial problems and -15 points.
also imagine him dealing with paratici on the loose. the squad was getting worse with every mercato, both financially and regarding its quality

inb4 he deals with him at spurs: in italy it's the clubs that do the mercato moves, especially at juve

we might have won an other scudetto with conte, but as you say, he'd be out after a season or two, leaving nothing but chaos

if we took him back in 2019, we wouldnt face this misery now and inter would have been sitting on their asses for 15 years without winning and counting. so yes.
I agree with this. We'd surely still win the Scudetto that Sarri won, we likely wouldnt have the threat of a 90 point Inter the season after that + Conte would weed out the mercenaries and bad apples of our squad just like he did at Inter. Would he still be with the club after Covid, -15 and what not? Most likely not, but almost anything trumps the chain of Sarri, Pirlo and washed up Allegri, short term option like Conte definitely does.

Do we need a short term option right now? Id say no, we're not in a win now mode, Id prefer to hire a long term coach and build gradually, bringing in 2-3 quality signings every year, dropping the deadweight and developing our youngsters.

Would have won Sarris scudetto and probably Pirlos season too but would have flopped in Europe despite having Ronaldo and would have faced even greater pressure than Sarri did. Our football would have been unwatchable but we’d win the league.

Then would have fallen out with management after Covid killed our finances, he’d have demanded more money and signings while they’d have told him we gotta downsize and replace Ronaldo with Keane.

At that point he’d have had a public meltdown that makes spurs look good.

Joking aside,

He picks clubs who aren’t known to be big spenders and is never aligned with their management about the building process from the get go. He initially overachieves > looks good and raises expectations > then doesn’t meet these heightened expectations > fans pile pressure > he grows frustrated and says we need patience and time but doesn’t have the patience for a slow build > starts demanding immediate big transfers that were never part of the plan and publicly pressures the owners and shits on his own players > loses the players and performances worsen > blow up and leave.

He signs onto long term projects when he doesn’t have the patience or media management to see it through. If he comes back he’ll repeat the same pattern.

Yeah, no.

Conte can come coach Fenerbahce since no serious club should ever touch his ass again.
Correct. I honestly don't understand why Conte did that. The job is hard but he got paid too much compared to other careers so just go on. If Spurs couldn't make CL next season, he can always blame it on the squad that it's not competitive enough.
