Tottenham's best two summer transfers highlight the glaring problem under Antonio Conte

Plenty of Tottenham fans are already counting down the days until the 2022/23 campaign draws to a close after a disastrous week for the football club. Suffering yet another FA Cup humiliation at the hands of Championship opposition followed by a defeat at Wolves in a game they should have won, Tottenham exited the Champions League on Wednesday evening with barely a whimper.

Spurs delivered such a flat performance that you couldn't tell that they were in need of goals and on the verge of crashing out of Europe's premier competition against AC Milan. The Rossoneri were there for the taking and Spurs did nothing at all to trouble them, compounding a truly miserable seven days for supporters.

Their season has completely unravelled in the space of a week and many cannot wait for this campaign to end and the 2023/24 season to begin. It does appear that it will be another fresh start for the club with Antonio Conte looking on course to cut ties with Spurs as it's fairly evident that he doesn't want to be in N17 beyond the end of the campaign going on his reluctance to commit his future to the club and also the speculation about an Italian return.
