Jermaine Jenas finds it hard to argue with Antonio Conte’s evaluation of Tottenham Hotspur’s history but the former midfielder believes the soon to depart head coach must take a large share of the blame for failing to change the narrative with his negative football.
Conte’s outburst after last Saturday’s embarrassing draw away to Southampton, in which he had a furious pop at the players and questioned a long-held mental fragility, has left chairman Daniel Levy considering whether to sack him during the international break or wait until his contract expires in the summer.
Conte is in Italy, has missed training sessions this week and it is unclear when or if he will return to north London.
