The problem I see with the reaction to Sunday is there’s too much speculation and assumption from fans and pundits about Conte’s intentions and that’s being used a stick to beat him with by the vast majority.
Maybe I’m defending him cos I feel he has a similar outlook as I did/do, but ultimately I don’t believe that there’s a manager on the planet, certainly not one who’s achieved what he has, who would purposefully set up a team not to try and win the match in front of them, notwithstanding his failure to act sooner when it was crying out for a change to be made.
