Antonio Conte warned Tottenham will need another “miracle” to finish in the top four before launching an astonishing rant at “crazy” expectation levels.
Tottenham fans booed the players off after their home defeat by Aston Villa on Sunday and chanted “Daniel Levy, get out of our club” in protest at the under-fire chairman. But Conte saw Tottenham slip to fifth place and warned they cannot compete for success because rival clubs can splash out £300million to buy success.
It was a clear warning from Conte that he wants serious backing in January but also raised further questions about his long-term future, which remains in serious doubt beyond next summer.
