Amazing tour. Milan unexpectedly continued to lose, and Napoli simply destroyed the strong Lazio and became the sole leader. They have now absolutely the best statistics and continue to prove they are in the first place by right. Another team that continues to amaze is Fiorentina - after defeating Milan, they lost to Empoli and continue to be the most uncompromising team: 7 wins, 7 losses  Cheesy
I didn't expect Napoli to win with a big score against Lazio, this makes Napoli at the top with 3 points ahead of AC Milan. Since AC Milan also surprisingly lost to Sassuolo at home, this is a very bad result, because Inter are now getting closer to AC Milan's points. If AC Milan next game lose points again, they position is likely to be replaced by Inter. Regarding Fiorentina I'm not so surprised if they lose to Empoli, because indeed if they play away they often get bad results, this must be improved from Fiorentina, so they don't often lose points when playing away.
Yes, Milan continues not only to lose points, but also to lose, allowing Napoli to regain a clean first place. As I expected, the leaders began to lose points, but I still did not expect that this would affect Milan to a greater extent and the crisis would begin to stretch out so much in time.  Still, a loss from Sassuolo on his own field is a rather unexpected result, especially since Milan opened the scoring in this match. Also unexpected for me is the devastating defeat of Lazio. Napoli was clearly inspired by the installation of a monument to Diego Maradona in their own stadium and has already decided a lot in the first half, scoring three unanswered goals.

After end of first half now both teams are level with 1 - 1 but Sevilla done some good in first half now if they keep this momentum then surely they can restrict Real Madrid and can stay on second spot in La Liga with one game still in hand because now after Xavi's arrival situation is very serious in this league Barcelona is improving so other teams have to do some better for staying at top today Atletico won and Real Socidad lost and if Sevilla also lost then surely Real Madrid will enjoy 5 points gap against their all opponents and Sevilla will also slip from second to fourth spot with just 5 points gap between them and Barcelona which is now also hunting for their spot in top four as they already out of this year's Champions League knock out stage.
It's a tough game for Real Madrid at the moment because Sevilla are really playing quite well. The 1-1 score lasted until the 80th minute and this will not be good for Real Madrid who are struggling to stay away from chasing Sevilla. If Sevilla win then they will be top of the table by a point away from Real Madrid, but it seems difficult to see that becoming a fact. But I think a draw will also be good for both teams because it will make the competition even more difficult with a small difference in point. Both team still had chance to score, but it was an even game.
Real Madrid still snatched victory at the end of the match and broke away from Sevilla by five points. Accordingly, Sevilla lost the chance to get closer to Real Madrid. The second half was not as successful for Sevilla as the first half and failed to defend even a draw. Real Madrid is slowly starting to break away from the competition, but in the next round, another pursuer of Real Sociedad awaits him on the home field. Sevilla did not use their chance to get closer to the leader, will Sociedad be able to do it? It will also be a great opportunity to rehabilitate yourself for the defeat by Espanyol and continue to remain among the leaders.

Transfer rumours:
Newcastle United are leading the chase to sign France winger Ousmane Dembele, with Manchester United also interested in the 24-year-old whose contract with Barcelona runs out next summer. Can Newcastle really bring in players like this as early as next summer, given that they won't be ready to fight for the title yet and they won't compete in Europe yet. That’s not exactly a motive for the biggest players to come play.
Yes, one of the main problems for Newcastle to attract top players remains a low place in the standings and non-participation in European competitions next season. However, I don't think this is the main thing for the team in this situation. The main thing for the team is to work well in the transfer market already in the winter and acquire good strong players who will allow the team to leave the last place in the standings. For the record, Newcastle remains the last team in the Premier League that has not yet won a single victory this season. Therefore, the club's transfer budget should be directed to correcting this situation for the time being, because the club risks losing its place in the Premier League and then talk about top players will be even less relevant.

Surprisingly Juventus had to lose to Atlanta 0-1, appeared quite dominant and created many opportunities, instead Juventus had to concede through Zapata's goal. The addition of three points makes Atlanta even more firmly in the 4th place with 28 points and makes the competition with Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli even more fierce if they fail to get three points this week.
No matter how banal it sounds, but the most important thing in football is the final score on the scoreboard, and if this is not the first time problems with this, it means that it is no longer an accident that rules the ball here. This victory allowed Atalanta to break away from Juventus by seven points. Juventus has big problems not only with the latest results, but also big problems with the prosecutor's office about transfers in the period from 2019 to 2021, which are currently being investigated. 42 transactions are under suspicion, including exchanges with Manchester City and with Barcelona. All this can also affect the atmosphere in the club and, accordingly, the results.

Barcelona continue to win in the league. They had an away game against Villarreal tonight and they became victorious with a 3-1 result. Their dominant game in the second half especially helped them a great deal to win the match like this. Villarreal scored the equalizer and Barcelona had tough times actually. But in the last minutes, they still found a way out and scored two more goals. We've started seeing the Barcelona we want.
Victory against Villarreal is very important to raise the morale of Barcelona players, because Villarreal is one of the strongest teams in La Liga. And Barcelona can win away against Villarreal this is very good progress, hopefully Xavi can continue this positive trend. In order for Barcelona to return to the top 4, I am very satisfied with Barcelona's performance.  Although Barcelona can only ensure victory in the last minute of the game.
But proving Barcelona's players now have a high fighting spirit, before the game ended they continued to try to win. Xavi has proven enough that his arrival has made Barcelona's performance better, next Barcelona will face Betis who are in 6th place. This means that if Barcelona can beat Betis, then Barcelona will rise to a higher position. If I look at Barcelona's game against Villarreal who never give up, it makes me optimistic that Barcelona can beat Betis.
It is through such victories that Barcelona can gain more self-confidence. Xavi proves with his results that he is a little lucky, which allows him to achieve victory, because the situation could turn into a negative side for Barcelona and the club could even be defeated. Another question is that you should not rely on this all the time and you need to offer other trumps as well, so as not to rely constantly on changing fortune. Therefore, I don't think that all fans want to see a team that can randomly win or lose any match Grin Even Xavi himself admitted after the match that there was luck on the team's side and Villarreal did not deserve defeat.

It has been a great weekend for Dortmund especially. As far as I knew, Dortmund had still too many absent players. And Erling Haaland was also one of them. But after the lineups announced, I saw that Erling Haaland was in the subs. And this made me really surprised and happy at the same time. Because he wasn't expected to bounce back before the end of the year. And he proved his quality once more only 8 minutes after entering the game. Dortmund got a deserved 3-1 win and started waiting for Bayern Munich to lose points.
Even though Bayern Munich dominated the game against Bielefeld, they had a hard time scoring there. But finally Sane scored and they managed to win by 1-0 home. Dortmund still follow them by one point after gaining the first position for a short time.
Haaland's return is great news for Borussia Dortmund and could further boost the club's results. By the way, Haaland scored his 50th goal in 50 matches and became the youngest player who managed to do this. Dortmund must first stabilize its results in order to compete with Bayern, which seems to give chances to its competitors at times, but over a long distance it always turns out that rivals cannot show constant stability in results. I would also like to say that Bayern has set a record and scored 102 goals in a calendar year. Borussia Dortmund has a great chance to catch up and immediately overtake Bayern in the next round by winning the face-to-face meeting. Another question is whether Dortmund will be able to take advantage of this chance.

~~~
It appears that Manchester United's attempts to sign Zidane were not reciprocated and his current chance seem uninterested. PSG coach Pochettino is much more likely to manage Manchester United than Zidane in my opinion, Pochettino also seems interested in this offer because he already knows a lot of things in the Premier League than Zidane. It doesn't matter if Manchester United take definite steps to get Rangnick over the next 6 months, but there has to be a better coach than the last name for Manchester United.
Perfect scenario for zidane to get his sky high salary at PSG if pochettino leaves paris despite he claimed he's happy at PSG as he might respect the contract. im pretty sure pochettino are the one who would landed in old trafford as a manager if there is no much option for manchester united to have a top level manager. zidane seems looking for some a huge cash plus a place where he could stay at his own city , paris is his next destination.
For Zidane, according to his attitude and style of work, Paris Saint-Germain is now a better job option, no matter how sad it sounds for Manchester United fans. One of the reasons why Mauricio Pochettino wants to leave PSG is fatigue from the situation in the team, when the trinity of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe is more dominant in the dressing room and the coach is not an absolute authority in this situation. Unlike Pochettino, Zidane is perfectly familiar with this situation and can handle it perfectly, as his work at Real Madrid showed. There was a chance that the situation would be resolved soon, but the signing of Manchester United's contract with Rangnik clearly postponed all this for six months.
1428  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 26, 2021, 11:59:23 PM
With Honesty, I don't think Zidane was ever interested in the Manchester United job and I doubt if he will ever got to United.
Why do you so doubt if Zidane can be a Man United coach? I think it is not impossible, why not? It depends on how the offer made by Man United management. If it is interesting, I think there is a chance of signing Zidane.
As we know in other media, there are several things that Zidane refused to do, so it wasn't in terms of an attractive offer but a rejection from himself and his family. If this is indeed the case then the management of Man United must be able to convince that the most important thing, for me, is the salary issue. will definitely adjust if there is a request from Zidane himself. So for me Zidane still wants to rest even though it has been a long time while there is an offer that suits him, some even say in the media that Zidane is not very interested in the English league.
Zidane's goal is to become coach of french national team after the next world cup in Qatar, that will match the departure of Didier Deschamps, currently french coach, also in 2022. It was also said Zidane enjoys living in Madrid and in the scenario he becomes coach of France, it's possible he continues living there without prejudice. On the other scenario, however, that he accepts the proposal from Manchester United he would need to move himself to England, what looks unlikely to happen accordingly to the news I have seen recently.
Of course, one should not discount such a factor as an offer that cannot be refused, but still it seems that this is not the case Wink As already mentioned before, another reason for Zidane's refusal from the post of Manchester United head coach was a poor level of English language proficiency. Also, the opponent of moving to England is Zidane's wife, even more she does not like the fact of moving to Manchester itself. Coupled with Zidane's own plans for the post of head coach, it is difficult to imagine how much the bosses of Manchester United should offer in order for Zinedine to change his mind and become the head coach of the club.

I think all the teams that played in the Champions League before, and ended up having to play in the Europa League. They will definitely be disappointed and their efforts will decrease, they realize winning the Europa League is not as proud as winning the Champions League. But that does not mean that the team from the Champions League has no desire to win the Europa League trophy, because after all getting a trophy is good,
but the effort will definitely not be as big as when playing in the Champions League competition. Therefore, many star players when choosing a new club, usually prioritize teams that have a history of winning the Champions League trophy. That's so magnificent the Champions League trophy, we can also see how PSG have brought in many star players this season, that's because their main target this season is to win the Champions League trophy. That is the fact that the Champions League is the highest quality competition in Europa.
I personally am not sure that clubs like Borussia Dortmund have serious chances to win the Champions League at all, so it is a little strange to hear arguments that such a club, after leaving the Champions League, will not play with such great diligence in the Europa League. Therefore, it is one thing to talk about the disappointments of relegation from the Champions League of a club like Paris Saint-Germain or Barcelona, despite the serious condition of the club itself, and quite another to talk about the current Borussia Dortmund, whose goal by and large is to prepare players for resale to big clubs and stable participation in European competitions in order to show these players to potential buyers.

Interested match on this week because Juventus still out from top position, but posiyive result hot from many match before after success defeat Lazio and keep going on with winning way. I think Juventus should win on every match if want to be competitive for Napili or AC Milan have bigger chamce as scudetto, how ever both team loss three points last week after lost Napili defeat by Inter Milan and AC Milan loss from Fiorentina.
I can't even imagine how this match can end, the outcome can be any. The only bet that seems acceptable to me on this match is that both teams have score goals. Juventus is in a pretty fever this season, what can be said of the club where the full-time penalty taker is the center-back. I do not mean that Bonucci is not worthy of a penalty kick, I mean that this is a clear sign that the team does not have a good striker. But besides this, there are plenty of problems in the club.
I don't quite agree with you about the position of a full-time penalty taker. As banal as it might sound, but the penalty should be punched by the one who does it best and it makes no difference what position this player occupies on the field, because the history of football knows the penalty shooters of goalkeepers. A player who constantly punches a penalty should not have outstanding speed qualities as a striker and simply must have a well-placed kick and a strong nervous system. And if Bonucci has all these factors, then there is nothing reprehensible for Juventus. Which of course does not negate the fact that Juventus has problems in the offensive line, which is still evident during the season.
1431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: November 26, 2021, 11:34:02 PM
I will keep an eye on the two matches between Villarreal vs Barcelona and Real Madrid vs Sevilla. One can only guess how much Barcelona has been able to adapt to the new coach, given the performance against Villarreal. Sevilla, on the other hand, could rise to the top of the points table if they can beat Real Madrid. Sevilla will definitely want to occupy the top spot in the table. It will be the most competitive match of the day.
So far Real Madrid and Sevilla have only lost once in the last 13 match so it will be a tough match for both teams in Laliga. If Madrid lose, Sevilla will lead the table and it will be much more interesting in the title race.
Meanwhile in the Vilareal vs Barcelona match I think Barcelona will claim an easy win regardless of how many goals they score. In any situation Barcelona have always been favorite in matches against team other than Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid this season even though at this time they often failed to get maximum point. In an effort to catch up on the difference in point from the leader of the standing, Barcelona must win all match so far.
With regard to the current Barcelona, I would be very careful to apply such a concept as an easy win Grin You can talk as much as you like about the fact that Barcelona has already lost a lot of points and you need to catch up with the leaders by winning the remaining matches, but you can also talk about Barcelona's rivals, especially since Villareal's victory will allow you to get close to the same Barcelona. Therefore, given Barcelona's playing problems in recent matches, Villarreal can count on a draw at least. In theory, we can expect a very hard match between Real Madrid and Sevilla, given what positions the teams occupy and what consequences there may be if one of the clubs loses. Still, I will give some advantage to Real Madrid, given the home status of the match and I think that Real Madrid at least will not lose.

I also want to see them in this of course it will be a bit exciting whether Rangnick can do something good in the EPL like the bundesliga coaches who moved to the EPL before or it will just end up with the distrust of United players and the anger of the fans from Man.Utd.
but now it's likely that Rangnick will only be an analyst when he can't improve United's game and United have to get ready to find someone else
Oh yes, the fashion for coaches for German coaches in England continues to be the place. Surprisingly, the management of Manchester United has again returned to the option with Rangnik, although the talk about this seems to have subsided. The information that Rangnik will sign a contract with Manchester United with a validity period until May 31, 2022 seems to hint that his candidacy is not the final option. It also seems that Mauricio Pochettino remains interested in working with Manchester United from next summer and the arrival of Rangnik in this post does not bother him. Moreover, Pochettino himself lives in Paris in a hotel, and his family still remains in England in London.

After arsenal move from higbury, arsenal seemed to lose luck at that time, I think the beginning of arsenal's destruction was when they tried to build a new stadium and it forced arsenal to become a club selling star players to cover the cost of building the emirates stadium, besides, Arsenal success at that time , cannot be separated from Arsene Wenger's tactics, but it will not run optimally, without the role of three French players Thierry Henry, Robert Pires and Patrick Vieira who at that time became the life of Arsenal game in winning the Invincibles title.
I do not believe that it has nothing to do with finances. Arsenal is still a team that makes a lot of money compared to their success rate, that is mainly because of their rich history and I understand that even from Henry times they still have fans globally which is how they are making most of their money. This is understandable but also it proves that they are not having financial crisis like Barcelona for example.
The reason why they sucked big time was the fact that they had a bad start, maybe it is due to bad summer training period, maybe it was due to some new tactic testing, maybe it was something else, or maybe roster played a bit of a role as well who knows. However, I believe that nobody that has a financial situation would start at the bottom of the league and rise as high as Arsenal did, did they suddenly found some hidden golden treasure? Of course not, it is the same team but they started to play better.
The main reasons for Arsenal's gaming problems can be various factors, but financial factors cannot be in any case. The team has always had decent funding in recent decades, but still no more than other grandees. There was just a factor of Arsene Wenger's coaching skills that allowed him to achieve decent results with not the most huge funding. It just couldn't go on forever and if other club owners spared no expense to achieve results, then you can't say the same about Arsenal, because the current owner has a different philosophy to achieve results with the minimum possible means. And this in modern conditions most often does not work.

Juventus is really behind in the points table and I think it would be more realistic for them to aim for the third or fourth position. Napoli still holding their first position which is really good for them and I was actually surprised by that. Roma is in 5th place with 22 points. But the problem is teams in front of Roma have really good point difference head of Roma. So it will be hard for the teams starting from fifth place to climb up.
Juventus have to recover from their unstable form. Then they can think about sliding up on the standings . Juventus performance are definitely poor, and their Coach have to work on their squad. They are presently at the 8th position on the Serie A standings. While they probably had their first lost match in the champion League yesterday against Chelsea. However, their next match which is against Atalanta will  a tough one and with the current performance of Juventus, they will find it difficult winning in the game. Moreover, it they continue like this, they won't even be able to end this season at the 5th position.
Yes, if Juventus wants to claim something serious this season, then the team urgently needs to add stability to the results, because quite a lot was lost at the start of the championship. But in any case, there is still enough time and with the normal development of the situation, the club can claim a place higher than fifth. There is potential for this. I continue to believe that Juventus still has to solve all its problems during the season and should qualify for getting into at least the top three. Another question is that competitors in the face of Napoli, Milan, Inter, Atalanta, Roma, Lazio also have their own goals and objectives for this season and will not give up their positions just like that.

The long awaited match between Manchester City and PSG is underway and it is very interesting to watch because both have different playing characters, Manchester City are known for their possession style of play and PSG have a fast counter-attack game.
The second match of the Champions League is quite confusing because we are faced with many interesting choices to watch that make us curious, Manchester City vs PSG
Atlético vs AC Milan
Liverpool vs Porto
Sheriff vs Real Madrid.
Manchester City achieved 3 winning points against PSG. Is was an interesting match. After they ended the first half in goalless draw, Mbappe score a goal 5 minutes into the 2nd half, but Sterling equalize the game at the 63th minutes. But, Gabriel Jesus saved Manchester City from drawing the match by securing the 2nd goal. And City won with 2-1 score. While Milan played a tough game against Atletico Madrid, but was able to score towards the end of match. They had 4 shot on target. Nevertheless, this is Milan's first won match at the champion League this season. However, as expected, Real Madrid won against Sheriff with 3 goals. Sheriff started the Champion League with good performance, but they couldn't withstand Real Madrid's squad, and probably Lost the match.
The fact that Manchester City will take revenge on Paris Saint Germain was quite expected, because the price of the question was the first place in the group match was held in Manchester. Milan had an almost hopeless situation, into which the club drove itself with unsuccessful results in the opening rounds, but the victory over Atletico Madrid dramatically shook up the situation and confused all the cards and layouts and now allows the club to even hope for the continuation of the fight in the Champions League and reaching the next stage of the tournament. Another question is whether Liverpool will allow themselves to be beaten at home, despite the fact that Liverpool have already solved all their tournament tasks and whether there will be a draw in the last round between Porto and Atletico.

I think maybe because they thought that vaccination might cause them some health issues or maybe they just did not trust the vaccines. There have been some cases where the nurse injects other fluid instead of the vaccine. But those cases are really rare and have only happened maybe once or twice and also have been taken action against. So I think as they are in a much more developed country, they should trust the process and get vaccinated. Because they can endanger the safety of others and themselves.
There are a lot of controversies going on right now regarding vaccination, side effects that might occur are the reasons why people refuse to get vaccinated,  Personally, I'm also quite confused by the current situation, because according to them, if they are afraid just because of the side effects that occur, but right now there is no big news that mentions casualties from the side effects of the vaccination, besides that what confuses me more is that there is no guarantee that after vaccination the person will not be infected or exposed to covid, because in my country even those who have been vaccinated too some came back positive for covid after that, to be honest, this covid vaccination seems very different from the previous tetanus or polio vaccination, because as far as I know those who have received polio and tetanus vaccinations have been spared from these two diseases.
The side effects of vaccination in any case are not comparable to the effects of COVID disease. I understand to some extent the position of these athletes, because any even minor factors can affect physical fitness in a bad way and vaccination may be one of these factors, but still in this matter the state must show its will and demand compliance with its requirements for all citizens and not make any exceptions for other groups of the population, including athletes. And if unvaccinated football players risk potential fitness problems for a while in the case of vaccination, then the COVID 19 infection that occurred through them can have much more severe consequences both for them and for those people they can infect. Therefore, I agree with the management of German clubs that do not pay salaries to football players suspended due to lack of vaccination.

Real Sociedad have lost their leadership in the table finally after many weeks. They still have played one more game than their biggest competitors. But still, Real Madrid managed to get past them in the table and took the lead.
It is not easy for small club like Sociedad to keep the first position for long and till the end of season. What they are doing now is great enough and even they did not believe they can do it at beginning. More than 2 decades since the season Sociedad had Xabi Alonso and had great result.
They are coming back and making us very surprised.
This season can be the time for them when Real Madrid, Barcelona have their troubles too.
I think that you are right about it. Even though Real Sociedad have been performing really satisfyingly, it is really hard for a club like them to keep this up for a very long time. In fact, I'd really like to see a smaller club than Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona winning the league title this season. There are some examples in the other big leagues to this. But especially when Real Madrid are in a shape like this, Sociedad's job will be really hard. They need to play extra to achieve the title.
Well, it's not even worth stuttering about the title yet, because there are still too many matches ahead. Although, of course, I would like Real Sociedad to continue to compete with the grandees and hold the first position. Another question is that Real Sociedad had and will have fewer resources than the grandees. But sometimes it really unites the team and supports their game, allowing them to stay in the top positions of the standings throughout the season. Another question is that at the end of the season, richer competitors lure away the team leaders or the head coach and the story of happiness may no longer have a continuation for the next season.

I think Verstappen does take the championship so long as he does nothing stupid and is not especially punished for past stupidity perhaps.   If he can take it by being 2nd, I think he has to be rated as most probable to take the entire thing because obviously he is well capable of 1st also.    Lewis might deserve it for our recent memory of his performance but the its a long season and I've seen this photo finish effect before, so I'd guess Verstappen at this point.
Obviously, Mercedes has better cars than Red Bull and the most important task is to make this advantage manifest itself with a winning double in one of the last two races. I'm not sure that Max will continue to behave like this when Bottas manages to stay behind Max on a clearly faster car. Therefore, yes, the advantage in points is still on Verstappen's side and, accordingly, there seems to be more chances to win the title, but Mercedes solved the problems with their car by the end of the season and in this regard they have all the cards up their sleeve. However, there is too little time left before the end of the championship and everything can be solved by small nuances and elementary luck.

But come to think of it, why are club legends performing poorly ?
Higher expectations they will do better than others,but results gets worst game after game.
Frank Lampard did poorly at Chelsea
Gatuso Did at Napoli
Ronald Koeman at Barcelona
Ole Gunner Solskjaer at Manchester United.
It's just embarrassing how they can't keep up with the expectation of the club.
It depends. In the case of Steven Gerrard, even though he hasn't coached Liverpool yet, he did very well back at Rangers. I think the problem with most of these club legends like Ole and Lampard was that they were brought back to the club management role too quickly. They probably needed more time in other clubs to gain experience but didn't get those experience. Clubs should have a rethink before rushing to hand someone the job just because they were once a legend to the club.
Yes, the professions of a football player and a head coach have obvious differences and other requirements, and not everyone can achieve the same success in a coaching career as in a player's career. Especially when a famous player in the past is not given some time to master the skills of the coaching profession and immediately put in charge of a large team, where there are increased expectations from the club management and fans about the result shown by the team. Therefore, it is still better to move gradually through the management of smaller and simpler teams in order to achieve the best result, and only then take a swing at working in top clubs.

I had not much idea about who Conte was to be honest but I stayed up late to watch a big of the match yesterday and I saw Conte constantly getting our rather quiet fans to sing more loudly,,, that stadium I think has a slight problem of being too big and too quiet Smiley
But yes I liked what I saw and I read also about interest in Vlahovic and others but I feel like he needs to get the most out of Moura and Son and Kane and,,, Alli of course Smiley
Yeah, Conte has been amazing so far, he has been the winner with Inter as well and then he ended up resigning. This is why there is a good chance that we probably saw him move to Spurs as well, not really because he didn't agree with Inter as it was the talks but because he got an offer from Spurs.
At the end of last season, there were talks about how Inter wanted to sell Lukaku and didn't had enough money to build a decent team and that was the reason why Conte left Inter, and maybe it is really the case so I do not know. However what I believe is the fact that Spurs probably offered him a good deal after they parted ways with Mourinho and that is why Conte never agreed to go back.
Indeed, Tottenham offered good conditions both personally for Conte and by making promises to allocate good money for strengthening in the winter transfer window. In contrast, Inter had a difficult financial situation and vice versa, the conversation was about cutting costs and parting with a number of players for this, so Conte refused to continue cooperation with the club. Agree on the contrast with this, 17.5 million euros of salary and 100 million for expenses in the next transfer window from Tottenham are very weighty arguments in order to agree to sign a contract. On the other hand, Simone Inzaghi is doing pretty well at Inter at the moment, but still Conte's ambitions and, accordingly, the level of expenses are much higher and clearly not affordable for the current Inter.
