Last night and this morning, the five major leagues continued to play. In a four-game battle in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur sat at home and lost 2-0 to Wolves. In Serie A, Roma drew 2-2 with Sassuolo.
Recently, both Tottenham and Rome have been in trouble. Tottenham Hotspur have lost three straight: Chelsea 0-2, Southampton 2-3 and Wolves 0-2. And Roma, two draws in a row: 0-0 Genoa, 2-2 Sassuolo. Tottenham, five points behind in fourth; Roma, six points behind in fourth.
Last season, Spurs finished seventh in the Premier League and are now eighth; Roma, seventh last season, is still seventh. There is no doubt that both Conte and Mourinho are in trouble, and the honeymoon period with the club has passed: the team has not improved much, leaving the boss and the fans to wonder whether inviting you to come is the right option.
Conte, in his post-match press conference after the loss to Wolves, said: Spurs still have a long way to go in front of them, and the winner mentality cannot be bought by transfer. 'Tottenham fans have to understand that maybe they need to be patient, wait for a rebuild, get back to the kind of situation they were used to before. Before that, Conte didn't say that, he was a strong emphasis on buying people. If you're interested, check out Conte's original interview. If you replace the two words of Conte with the four words of Mourinho, you will find that there is no sense of violation.
Conte, in fact, is similar to Mourinho's personality. Many of the ideas of the two people are also common. At this time, I don't know if the Tottenham hotspur executives have regretted changing coaches? In fact, should we discuss a question at a deeper level: why the current world-class coaches, after going to the new owner, can not have an immediate effect. In the early years, Conte went to Chelsea and won the title immediately. Went to Inter and won the title the following year. Now come to Tottenham, win the title, even the fourth is difficult. Mourinho, there is no need to say more. Pochettino went to Greater Paris and directly overturned the carrier. And Allegri returned to Juve, and now they can only compete for four. Ancelotti was in Everton, too, without any success.
If you think about it, you will find that even world-class coaches will struggle with a team that is not competitive enough in the league to compete for the title. Sometimes the performance is similar to that of ordinary coaches. For example, Guardiola, after he came to Manchester City, how many people did he buy to achieve today's situation? At the same time, the development of modern football has made the strength between players not as different as before. At the technical and tactical level, in today's network is so developed, the openness is very large, and it is difficult to have many secrets to speak of. Therefore, the handsomeness effect will become weaker and weaker. Conversely, it's getting easier for young coaches to become famous: after all, young people absorb new things much faster than "old people.". Nagelsmann in the Bundesliga is a good example.
