Antonio Conte: Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte looked frustrated after the unexpected draw against Southampton. He blasted at his players and the club after dropping two points against a relegation-zoned club. Spurs played against Southampton and at one stage, the North London club was ahead in the game 3-1. Conte believed there was a rotten culture at Tottenham in an extraordinary rant last night. Walcott’s 77th-minute strike helped the Saints to find a second goal and in injury time, James Ward-Prowse scored an equalizer to make it 3-3. Follow Premier League LIVE Updates on InsideSport.IN

We have seen such comebacks in Premier League but never expected this from a club that is struggling to survive. Tottenham is battling for the top four and this game might hurt them later. Tottenham won just one game in the last four matches across all competitions. They were knocked out in FA Cup and Champions League this month.

The Italian coach spoke to the media during the press conference, “We are 11 players that go into the pitch. I see selfish players, I see players that don’t want to help each other and don’t put their heart.”

Tottenham also had an injury issue as Richarlison was hit by a record-breaking injury farce. The Brazilian was in tears after the injury.

Conte added, “Being a team, it is the most important thing. To understand that we play for the badge. We have to play to make our fans proud of us. We have to pay to show desire. The fire in your eyes to win. If you have this, for sure, you don’t go out in FA Cup. Today you win.”

“Here we’re used to it for a long time. The club has the responsibility for the transfer market, every coach that stayed here has the responsibility. And the players? The players? Where are the players? In my experience, I can tell you that if you want to be competitive, if you want to fight, you have to improve this aspect. And this aspect, I can tell you, in this moment is really, really low. And I see only 11 players that play for themselves.”

Conte’s contract will expire at the end of the current season and he will leave the club in the summer. He also talked about his future at Tottenham and the former Juventus coach blasted, “You are finding an alibi, another alibi. You try to find an excuse for the players.”

“Come on, come on, come on. We are professional. The club pay us a lot of money. The players receive money, me receive money, you understand? Not to find excuse or not show spirit or show a sense of belonging or don’t show a sense of responsibility because we are showing this.

He also added, “For me this is unacceptable because for me this is the first time in my career to see a situation like this. Until now I wasn’t able to change, not to change but compare to last season the situation went to become worse.

Antonio Conte also shared his views on Tottenham’s failure in past years. Spurs failed to win a single trophy since 2008. He said, “Why is it happening? Because they are used to it here, they are used to it. They don’t play for something important yeah. They don’t want to play under pressure, they don’t want to play under stress. It is easy in this way. Tottenham’s story is this. 20 years there is the owner and they never won something but why?

“The fault is only for the club, or for every manager that stay here. I have seen the managers that Tottenham had on the bench.

Tottenham now have a break to fix their errors as the international break will start. Their name will be played on April 03 against Everton. Top-four might be open now after poor results from Conte’s side.
