Antonio Conte insists Tottenham have still got a long way to go - but says Chelsea and Manchester United have got no such excuses.
Conte positively bristled when asked whether there was an opening for Spurs this season because Chelsea and United are clubs in transition. Tottenham boss Conte instead went on the offensive, said both rivals have spent big money and enjoyed recent success so they should be seen as title contenders.
That is set against the backdrop with Conte demanding more signings despite last summer’s spending spree to be able to challenge for the big trophies as he once again cast some doubt over his long term future at White Hart Lane.
