An amazing own goal

What a slice that was.

Took 101% of the GK's willpower not to launch the ball at his head

Spurs signing Richarlison for 50 mil

Spurs signing Richarlison for 50 mil

£60m+ if add ons are met.

If the media wants to use the figure for Nunez that includes potential add ons then the same should apply to other deals.

Did laugh at how some "experts" on Sky were saying that for 60m Richarlison would be a bargain

Do not really see where he would start in the Spurs team either, unless they want him as a winger or one of Son or Kane are off.

Like him winning the Ballon ‘Dor twice & Spurs winning the Quad ? Sounds doable

Presumably because they think the add-ons will be met.

Unless it is on Spurs finishing 4th or appearances its only going to be the initial amount

Even that could be a struggle with Arsenal strengthening

I actually think Spurs will be difficult next season, they can easily challenge for third, but I think this Richarlison deal is a bit of a risk. I remember when he and Gylfi had some penalty disagreement, he's a bit dim I think. Both are obviously but still.

You'll have to be more specific over which of those two you were referring to as dim, given recent history

[frank the tank]

i think he will do ok for them......but not enough to displace Kane or Son obviously.

Conte is a ****in good manager too i think. When United were having a ****e time under Oles final few weeks, his one good result on paper is when they beat Spurs away - 3-0 I think. In reality it was the jammiest 3-0 ever but you had the likes of Neville and Keane coming out trying to support Ole. Well that victory is possibly one of their worst results all season - because Spurs sacked Nuno, appointed Conte and went on and got better.

If United got Conte around the same time, then I reckon they might have ended up doing what Spurs did and even having a run at top-4.

His a great manager but there's a reason he never hangs around for long.

Spurs are really building a strong side they won't win the league or anything like that but it's the strongest side in a long time and Conte is a brilliant manager.

Still annoyed that they've managed to keep hold of Kane and Son. Considering they win **** all I just don't know how they've managed to keep both players.

[Doc_Piptorious]

Yep He has managed eight clubs plus the Italian national team since 2006.

Talented manager but dodgy as **** and generally takes less time to fall out with players and clubs than Mourinho.

Spurs will be doing well if he is still with them come the midpoint of the season after this one.

Conte is very much a two seasons and he is done guy most of the time.

wasn't there talk of him walking around Jan earlier this year.....probably because of lack of transfer activity at the time??

I think Levy might recognize that Conte is the real deal here though and will possibly try to give him all that he asks for - well anything that is reasonable / achieveable anyway. And from Contes point of view, he might want to do a job for 4 or 5 years and try to build something. Like Jurgen has done here.

In reality though, he is probably more likely to **** off before next season is over. Spurs will probably re-hire Poch then and he will be hailed as the returning Mesiah despite never winning anything with them the first time round!!! Just like Keegan at Newcastle the 2nd time he went there
