I don't think Everton have been given enough credit here. To only concede one and score one against Man City and Haaland is a great result and deserves more credit than they've received.

All it's done is delayed Lampard's P45 by another week.

Time to say “arrivederci” to Conte.
Hopefully Daniel Levy’s New Years Resolution ?

Never in doubt and having given his best years to Spurs, surely even the most ardent of supporters won't deny that he's earned his chance to move on at the end of the season.

He has indeed - well apart from looking to leave last summer to go to City but City wouldn’t pay the money

At the time I thought it was a done deal. No Spurs fan could’ve said it wasn’t well earned.

Thought Conte was the manager to take the club to the next level ?
I’ve never really understood why fans of so many so-called top clubs clamour to have Conte as their manager. He’s never been anything other than a short term manager who parts company with his employer when the going gets too tough.
I was delighted when United did the sensible thing and looked elsewhere.

I'm sure Spurs fans are looking forward to their title win....

Looking like the (not so ) mighty Millers (Rotherham United) will be bouncing back to League One again- 7 season and never two consecutive in the same division!
He does, Phil. But I’ve never been one of those fans who just wants an instant fix. I love watching a manager build a club and a successful side by putting his stamp on things and bringing all the pieces together over a period of time. That brings me far more satisfaction than seeing a manager come in, win a trophy and then disappear again. Give me a Ferguson over a Conte any day of the week.
It’s why I’m so enjoying the early signs under ten Hag. He’s building something rather than looking for an instant fix. It’s much easier for regular match goers to have an affinity for a manager they have seen waking down the touchline for an extended period rather than someone like Conte who may do the business, but will be gone in the blink of an eye.
Football, for me, has never been all about winning titles. They are merely the icing on the cake. I want to see a club with a definite identity, something I can align myself to, and a short term manager simply doesn’t give you that.

Soon hopefully.I wonder when Conte's getting his.

Unfortunately football and many fans are very short termish these days and people want instant success - Conte does that , comes into teams that don’t need huge amounts of work and brings them titles which satisfies those that want instant success etc
People havent got the paitence to let a manager grow a team
If Ten Haag doesn’t bring in success within 2 years then the knives will be out for some
