Really? Crouch says Spurs fans 'will not tolerate' Conte playing style

Former Tottenham striker Peter Crouch believes fans are growing tired of manager Antonio Conte's style of play.

Crouch claimed that his former club have been 'difficult' to watch at times, and insisted that the Italian manager would have to deliver silverware in order to placate supporters.

Conte celebrated his one-year anniversary in charge of Tottenham in their Champions League clash with Marseille on Tuesday night, after leaving then-Serie A champions Inter in the summer of 2021.

The former England striker said: "The brand of football - if he doesn't deliver on trophies, I think the Tottenham fans aren't gonna tolerate the football that's being played at the moment because it's difficult to watch.

"It has been difficult to watch, and unless there's a trophy at the end of it i don't think they're going to tolerate it."
