Perhaps Tottenham needed to hit rock bottom and suffer the darkness of Antonio Conte to see the light of Ange Postecoglou.
The Italian was not shy in letting everyone know everything he felt was wrong at the club — the ownership model was wrong, the principles of Tottenham were wrong and the culture of the club was wrong.
Conte went after the fans, owner, ‘selfish’ players comfortable with mediocrity and the general mentality of the club as one that doesn’t win things.
Some fans may have agreed with him as it allowed them to justify their vilification of Daniel Levy but Conte didn’t produce a team with any flair or anything that made fans enjoy the football.
