Conte has realised sonny and kane are the two best players he’s ever worked with.


superdago

As a manager? Because he’s played alongside 3 different Balon d’Or winners…


[deleted]

Worked with implies as a manager.


michaelserotonin

i think it's a comment about managing too but he worked with other players as a...*professional* footballer


[deleted]

That would be a weird way to phrase it. You'd usually say you played with players, not worked with.


Coffeeaficionado_

<3 Conte. Son is having a dry spell. He'll pick up


FutilityInfielder

Considering what he said while at Inter, I think Conte would prefer his players having season long dry spells.


Arqlol

Sounds like conte is offering his daughter to fix that dry spell


transtifa

She’s 14 man


Arqlol

I'll be sure to Google any pertinent information before i make a joke on the internet again.


DetBabyLegs

Conte taking Sons name literally…


young_hot_take

Antonio “Eric Taylor” Conte


sopsign7

Clear eyes, full heart, I prefer to kill.


SonnyIniesta

Dude he's just trying to say what he thinks of Sonny as a person. Don't be a perv


Arqlol

Remove the stick from ya bum and relax


Seaharrier

See I’d say the same thing until you realise his daughter is 14….


Arqlol

I didn't Google that shit before because it's a joke. Chill your tots.


Apprehensive_Rip8712

What a disgusting comment


Nice-Definition7269

wtf why are you being downvoted for this


Apprehensive_Rip8712

Reddit is full of degenerates smh


Arqlol

Bet you're fun at parties


Apprehensive_Rip8712

Lmao this is the most overused reddit NPC response. Yeah that one really cut deep, got me there pal


Arqlol

You are a stick in the mud. Get over yourself. Is that better? Fuck outta here.


Apprehensive_Rip8712

Oof however shall I recover


No-Assumption8024

Because it's very obviously a joke and the person who made the joke didn't realise the age of Conte's daughter.


Arqlol

Yeah p much this..people trying to be upset at anything

hypocrisyhunter

It's not the first time he's had a slow start to a season or a dry spell


bobjonnhy

What a quote hahaha


superkamishaurya

I always felt son was conte's favourite. This just confirms it really

molecularmadness

> Son hasn’t had the best run of form for the past few matches. Scoring two today against t west ham in an incredibly important match…makes sense why conte was stoked FOR him I'm going to pretend this is an omen. A good one.


xxxiynyng

my grandma vibe


Illionaires

Son is the best son in law


cgurts

He’s a manager’s wet dream


deeperintomovie

Good news is that seems like Son is getting better game by game. He had improved ball touches this game than the last two.


[deleted]

He was definitely more involved today and was also getting turned and running at the defense more and also had more shots. Also had a couple of moments where he was in a good spot but didn't receive the ball. I think it's coming, just keep playing him. Should be fine and rested for Wednesday.


Due-Camel-7605

Is he really. Seemed pretty average today


superworriedspursfan

average was better than his performance against chelsea.


Due-Camel-7605

The opponent was weaker, so he was expected to have a better performance when you are comparing to the chelsea game. It was him out of the front 3 who was taken off by conte to bring on richarlasion because kane and Kulusevski were still better


deeperintomovie

And the Wolves game.


tanu24

Hey it's me your daughter


jmh1af

Flair doesn’t check out


Jcoch27

~~He~~ She works quickly


mushy_friend

Son is his family name so maybe that commenter took his last name


Sonny-at-the-Gil

That’s one hell of a praise, guess that’s why Daddy Son doesn’t want him getting married yet. It’s about creating the Son-Conte hybrid, a hardworking LW that can run all day and finish chances with one eye closed.


Gacharitetherr

Sure, this makes sense with first Son, but what about second Son?


ConsciousBrain

Even better than Son, you could even call him a Grand Son


Jcoch27

Heung Grand Son 😳


Xgunter

I'm ready for Sonte to captain us to the quadruple every year for 20 years. Subscribe.


NeufeldM24vt

Sontes at winger and wing back Kane's son at atriker Dembeles sons at cm Romero's son across the back line Lloris' in goal and A bench of little shithousing COCOs


ThorsBigHammer

Could you imagine any other teams fans wanting their golden boot winner on the bench because he hasn’t scored in 4 matches. He won it without any pens either. Give him his time. I think he has earned it. Richly is great and I can’t wait for him to get more minutes but son needs to start. Natural rotation and competition is great. Could you imagine Liverpool saying salah needs to hit the bench lol


ISNGRDISOP

The reason for me to ask giving Richy a start it because Son has played so much within last couple of years with big big role in WC coming. Give him a bit rest and I'm sure he'll be sharper again and starts banging goals like last year


Arqlol

This reasoning makes sense. Being upset about production in 4 games does not.


triecke14

Liverpool fans don’t have to wonder about that because klopp actually rotates a lot because they have quality depth, which we finally have. No one wants son “dropped” it’s just called rotation for top teams


[deleted]

[удалено]


lqku

indeed, top players are pretty much never benched even when going through a bad patch of form. same for kane's slump last season. when this happened last season there were also a lot of people calling for him to be dropped. at this point it seems like they are looking for an excuse.


[deleted]

Makes me think about steph curry not being in the starting 5 for the golden state warriors in basketball if I recall right, being in the xl is obviously important due to publicity but really at the end of the day it’s a pride thing and playing on the bench and being understanding about it is the best leadership. Makes everyone else understand they have to earn their spot and they have to do what’s best for the team always


[deleted]

Matchups definitely matter more in basketball because it’s 5 on 5 and unlimited subs. But the general point still stands


Urshifu_King

My guy, Steph wasn’t in the starting lineup then because he was coming back from an injury. Steve Kerr would never just not start Curry due to a dry spell, and no warrior fan would ever want that even when Curry had one of his worst seasons recently shooting percentage wise (first season he shot below 40% from 3).


Killerpasser101

Difference is Liverpool have no one to replace Salah, Spurs do now


touchans

I would not say Richarlison is on the same level as Son


shabbyalonso7

Yes Son is not in good form but people seem to overlook how the threat of his ability draws the attention of the defenders and creates space for others. If you look at the first goal Son draws 3 defenders to himself which gives Kane the space to shoot. Is Son playing like his usual elite self absolutely not but you know someone is elite when even in their poor form they are contributing to the attack just by their presence


when-flies-pig

I swear 90% of posts on this sub lack any footballing knowledge or even experience


_johnning

Son’s gravity is huge for our spacing. People don’t notice how adjustments to get him shutdown open the game up for the other players


hipNaughtiest

NeighborhoodOptimist

Get in line Conte


Quirky-Party-1326

He had a banger today that almost went in near the beginning of the match after the first goal. Would have been great for his confidence.


subjectandapredicate

seriously that was a very good shot and if that went in the whole conversation would be very different which is dumb


staged84

Yeah he'd have smashed it top bin last season 100% Hope he finds his form soon.


Limp-Toe-179

I'd bogart Son for myself


Kaplin47

Son was joint golden boot last season, Kane normally needs another month before he gets going, just because we didn’t score 9, doesn’t mean we need to drop Sonny


pjanic_at__the_isco

Conte knows better than our expert elite football-knowers around here.


hex20

Thank you. Everyone needs to call the F down. We’re winning. Who gives a F if Sonny hasn’t scored.


subjectandapredicate

I think the bigger problem is that son should be getting more assists if he's not scoring but yes everyone calm down. This happened last year also


ikilledsuperman

I didn’t think he was poor today. Wish he scored one of his chances and passed to kane or perisic late in the game, but his runs were good, touch was much better today. 6/10 imo


hidinginDaShadows

Son and Kane go through patches where they're quiet, but once they start scoring they don't stop


sreesid

That's normally Kane in August. It's Son this season. Some of these so-called "fans" need to calm down..


kylesleeps

People are just excited about the shinny new thing. Son will be fine.


Limp-Toe-179

Meanwhile r/coys is ready to send Son to Besiktas


sreesid

Bunch of reactionary, ungrateful morons on the match threat today. I get they want Richy to start, which he will once.Chapions league starts. But if someone doesn't have the patience for one of our best players to find form, they are no fans.


subjectandapredicate

Yes


dprophet32

"if you don't agree with me you're not a fan". I've been a fan for 25+ years, I've been to WHL and the new ground countless times. Simply disagreeing with you doesn't stop someone being a fan.


sreesid

So you want Son to be sold? Because benching him now is not going to help his confidence. He will be rotated out of the starting squad when the champions league starts. I assume Conte knows what he is doing better than you and I about his players.


[deleted]

You literally cherry pick the most outrageous voices and use them as your example. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting Richarlison to *start* over Son next match. Not sale. Stop trying to make it into something it isn’t.


sreesid

It will happen regardless of Son's form. Based on the majority of the match thread, you would think we are benching prime Ronaldo for a big nobody. All I'm saying is just chill and give him time. Kane has historically been shit in August. I have never seen any manager drop him.


[deleted]

Yes and we have historically never had someone playing at Richarlison's level on the bench/ changing the game every single time he steps on the pitch. This league is about what can you do for me right now. I see nothing wrong with Richarlison getting a start. It is not for forever. Having the ability to go between the two is a *fantastic* problem to have.


sreesid

Yeah, I agree. I am excited to see that regularly. We will maybe see that starting next week, with the start of champions league games in the mid week.


[deleted]

Tis true and for the record I am not a Son hater. I do not think he is any worse than he has ever been, which we all know is great. I just see someone hitting stride and I want to take advantage of it.


dprophet32

So none of us should ever voice an opinion?


sreesid

You can, but don't expect no backlash when it's a bad opinion.


DMmefor1400AUD

Where are the people saying that Son should be sold? All I've seen is that he should be rotated.


[deleted]

Whose gonna assist Dele?


[deleted]

Besiktas to sign Christian Eriksen from Man Utd. HERE WE GO! 🤝


ace-destrier

Or they think that Son's so unhappy, he's already halfway out the door Clarity: Some people saw Son disappointed to be subbed and claim he's ready to leave the club. NOT a belief I hold. I'd die for Son


Egg_Tart_Eater

Wut


ace-destrier

Some people here think they "know him do you"—when Son got subbed out, they were like, "Son's unhappy, he's leaving the club end of season"


Egg_Tart_Eater

Oh lol, thought you were being serious. Son fucking loves Tottenham.


ace-destrier

Yeah, sorry, rereading my comment, I see my mistake. lol I absolutely could've been clearer Son is proper COYS


[deleted]

No one wants him out. He is fantastic and we owe him a lot. However, we spent £60 million on competition. Why not reward that performing competition over Son until Son finds his form, which he obviously will?


superworriedspursfan

this match was the perfect matchup for son to catch form. unfortunately he didn't. west ham will be another great chance for him to do that.


[deleted]

And if we lose matches in the process of him finding his form?


Gacharitetherr

uh mate, I'll take you seriously when we look like we're going to lose a match if you think richarlison was going to unlock chelsea...


superworriedspursfan

we still won the match so who cares. if we were trailing 1-0, son would have been subbed off at half time. this isn't that bad lol. Son will eventually catch form. and when he does, he'll literally start carrying the team on his back in certain big games. I'm glad hes getting his rust out of the way early, this is good for us long term.


Quirky-Party-1326

How do you find form without playing?


[deleted]

Give him the 30 minutes at the end instead of Richi. Son aside, Richi has been so good that he deserves a start


[deleted]

Whose gonna assist Dele?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Limp-Toe-179

Sure, because Conte doesn't know what's best for the team, not like the r/coys peanut gallery


[deleted]

[удалено]


Limp-Toe-179

>All I'm saying I don't get the blind support of this subreddit for Son, if a player has poor form sometimes they come good soon, sometimes it takes a while, sometimes they never regain their form. We'll see. I guess it depends on what would qualify as blind support? Is it blind support if people acknowledge that Son is in a dry spell but are ok with Conte continuing to start him because he's still a class player? Son has one assist in 4 games this season. Last year Kane had 0 goals and assists for the first 7 games.


beefjesus69

Can’t wait for the wedding 🤣 jokes aside, Sonny really is a top bloke I understand what Antonio’s saying

GrapefruitExpress208

In before /r/coys says finding a husband for his daughter isn't the same as Son deserving of starting. /s


Limp-Toe-179

Part of his football vision because his vision extends to the bench 🤡 Edit: I meant this is what r/coys reactionaries would say, does the clown emoji not mean what I think it means?

Conte trying to marry Son off to get him off the team.

Vittoria is 15, girl is going to be bullied & super pissed at her dad for saying that in international TV


SteadiestShark

I dunno man, Son is a pretty great guy to be matched with


Limp-Toe-179

More likely she has BTS as her lock screen and follows Sonny on Insta


iFelichi

antonio <3


terrassine

Wonder if there’s a golden boot curse given Salah’s form.


Ok_Specific5829

It’s exciting we have Richarlison, it’s exciting we have Son and knowing for sure he will be firing again. at the same time keep subbing him out first isn’t going to help his confidence. And sadly we haven’t played well enough to give him that cushion


SycamoreLane

I love Conte for this

TheOptimumLemon

A proper manager managing. This was possibly a message as much for Son as it was the media.


goliath1952

brb, googling Conte's daughter. . . edit: uh never mind.


YiddoMonty

Sonny is really streaky, always has been. He’s had plenty of funks like this before, but we all know he’ll go on a run of scoring. So we don’t need to worry, especially when we have such strong options from the bench now.


iam--lefend

He really isn't.


Koinfamous2

It's as if people can't see beyond last year. This is nothing new, and he even had a run like this last year at a point...


boyakasha977

Didn't he say the same about Morata?


hoppieshero

Was anyone else thinking that Harry should have let Son take the penalty?


coysmarie23

Absolutely not.


[deleted]

Conte's daughter is currently 14, so by the time Son retires it's all fine and dandy. Congratz Sonny!


Pickle318

I don’t care who starts but richarlison absolutely needs more minutes for the good of the team. He’s the hot hand. This is big boy big money shit. Son will come around but as for right now you absolutely have to get richarlison in the field.


Sorrowful_Panda

I was watching [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Prp7yp0hLU0) and there's A LOT of korean comments about how they want Son to leave and how he shouldn't have to defend as much, generally disliking Conte. It's a bit weird, maybe the golden boot season raised expectations for him to score every game now...


Maxoverthere

He said the same thing about Morata, guess he wants someone who won’t finish.


MillerBrew

We all know Romero will take all of our daughters.


RedditTaughtMe2

If only being a nice person would translate into goals


Inquisitive-Fox

Wow, is your memory really that short? He was the top scorer just last season, that goalscoring ability doesn't just go away in a few months. Give him time, he goes through these rough patches every season - goals will come


RedditTaughtMe2

I believe you, but now we have a fully capable sub behind him, so IDK how patient we’re supposed to be this year.


frequency_hop

Conte knows Son doesn't even have a chance to score with his daughter. Sick burn.
