Winning the league is always going to be a difficult task for Conte or anyone else considering how City (and Liverpool) have been running riot over the past couple of years. However, there have been a few drop offs due to injuries and mental fatigue which has resulted in City's point tally finishing below 90 points. Haaland's arrival makes such a drop off very unlikely for this season and that is because he is such a consistent source of goals. Having such a player is exactly what City have lacked in those lower point tally years, due to Aguero's injury record.
England has the two best clubs playing in one league, just as Spain did during the Pep-Mourinho years. Pipping City and Liverpool is nearly an impossible task. If Conte can can win the title this season, with Spurs of all clubs, then it will undoubtedly be a great footballing achievement.
And when it comes to cup competitions, I understand Conte has a poor record. However, in England it has not been so poor as with other clubs. In Conte's two full seasons with Chelsea he made it to the FA Cup final in his first year and won the competition in his second year. Spurs are also desperate for a trophy like no other "big" club. Add that to the quality of team which Conte is building and I think we'll see them have something to show for their efforts by the end of the season.
