Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte certainly isn\u2019t one to be consumed with flighty, light-headed self delusion \u2013 despite impressively\u00a0engineering a fine 1-1 draw away to Liverpool last night in the Premier League fixture at Anfield \u2013 about his side\u2019s title chances next season and have rated their chances as being \u201cimpossible\u201d.<\/p>\n
Despite his valiant men having now taken eight points from their four fixtures against Manchester City and Liverpool, a fact clearly outlining the truth that the North Londoners could go unbeaten all season against arguably the best two teams in Europe is noteworthy by any account. Not many teams can lay claim to being able to accomplish this. However, Conte for his part is definitely keeping his feet grounded and hie head out of the airy stratospheric heights.<\/p>\n
According to The Evening Standard, the idiosyncratic Italian admits that it would be impossible for Tottenham to challenge for the title next season with the current status quo. Understandably, although the Spurs boss\u2019 lofty ambitions would want his squad to do more than just finish in the top four next season, he is reality-anchored and readily admits that both Manchester City and Liverpool are far along in their development cycle.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s impossible to imagine that next season you are going to win the title because I\u2019m realistic and I know there are teams in England like Liverpool and City, Chelsea, also United, who are really strong. And it\u2019s not simple to face these monsters.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Conte was full of praise for Liverpool and their determined, disciplined approach all this while under Jurgen Klopp to building a consistently winning side. As an elitist coach himself with even more trophies to display than the German, Conte is well aware that a solid base is the foundation for Klopp\u2019s success.<\/p>\n
