I think to look for facts or actual specifics in the rant is a little pointless. By being vague and blaming the collective, Conte set out to make each player look at themselves and see if they are trying enough. Be under no illusion, this was a multi level ploy on the part of Conte. He's leaving, of that there can be no doubt - so he's got 10 games left at most. He decided if he saw a poor performance that he would take aim at the whole club, the players and the recent lack of success. He did this to a) protect himself if it goes wrong and we finish 7th, b) act as a perverse ploy to motivate the players (see Burnley last year) and c) to continue his "give me money to succeed or fail" mantra.
Levy's Tottenham philosophy doesn't fit a buy-to-win manager - we're simply not wired that way at the club. Jose and Conte are both those types - so there's been consistency, but this has to be the end of current decision making committee at Spurs. I'm fine with his financial prowess, as unlike many I think the club is exceptionally run, but its time now to give the football over to football people and not business people.
