The impact Antonio Conte has made in north London in ten months has exceeded expectations. The Italian led his side to a top four finish last season, securing them Champions League football for the 2022/23 campaign.
It was very much a rollercoaster season for Spurs, with a mixture of performances and results, throughout the season. The Lilywhites beat Man City 3-2 at the Etihad and drew 1-1 to Liverpool at Anfield last season, which led to criticsm from Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola, regarding Conte's tactics.
"They played the way I expected them to play. They were good in the build-up and created a lot of space to run on the counterattack, but in general we coped well and played a good game," Guardiola admitted, after the match in February.
