It turns out that was indeed footballs version of the TV series Squid Game, as the losing manager was eliminated from his job.That manager, of course, was Nuno Espirito Santo, meaning that the hot seat at Tottenham Hotspur was vacant once again.Antonio Conte rejected the position in the summer, but roughly four months later he has accepted a new proposal and will be taking over as manager with a contract that runs until 2023.Buongiorno Antonio Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) This begs the question: How might Tottenham shape up tactically under Conte? There are quite a few po sibilities, so we will go over some of them here.The first thing everyone knows about the Italian manager is that Drew Desjarlais Jersey he loves to play a back-three and favours two-striker systems, so here is how his team might look on paper:It is clear to see that Tottenhams current squad is actually quite suited to a back-three.Many of the centre-backs have some experience in such a system (most notably Cristian Romero, who was a key figure at the heart of Atalantas defence last season), while their current full-backs also seem better fits in wing-back roles. Their front two already have a great connection, which is another thing that Conte will like.More importantly, it is important to understand how this side might work in po se sion. Conte does like to keep the ball, and he has employed various systems to do so over the years.Most recently at Inter Milan, his team used a 4-2-4 from a 3-5-2 Malcolm Perry Jersey on paper, with one midfielder dropping back. Lets try to translate that for our Tottenham line-up:If this system is used, it might not be the worst idea to use Ben Davies as the left centre-back given his history as a full-back, and it is also po sible that Matt Doherty might rediscover NFL New England Patriots Jersey his Wolves form in a similar sort of role with more attacking freedom.With this shape, Inter played some very vertical football with lots of one-touch relay pa ses and direct balls into the front two, which is something that this group of players are not entirely alien to.The other clear option is a 3-2-5 in po se sion, which Conte used to great effect at Chelsea.Heung-min Son and Harry Kanes connection could be utilised to greater effect in this way, as the English striker will have the freedom to drift out to the left while his South Korean counterpart makes runs in behind.Dele Alli could also be a left-field option for the right midfielder role, although it remains to be seen if he still can operate at the level of his best years in a Spurs shirt.It is true that this system looks like it could suit this Tottenham squad better, Quinn Nordin Jersey but given its emphasis on slower and more sustained po se sion, it might need some time and work on the training ground before it yields serious rewards.Moving onto defending, Contes sides typically dont employ the highest of pre ses, but they dont sit back either.Therefore, a 5-3-2 mid-block with wide midfielders tasked with pushing forward when the ball is on their side might be what the Italian manager uses, just as he did at Inter.In this defensive set-up, Pierre-Emile Hjbjerg will have to move out to either side of midfield to plug the gaps left by the advancing wide midfielder, naturally vacating the central defensive midfield area.This is where Romeros front foot defending ability can prove crucial, as he can effectively cover that region of the pitch.With the winter transfer window approaching, reports have suggested that Conte has been promised a sizeable budget to reinforce this team.The two main areas that he might want to improve are the right wing-back and left centre-back positions, but he could also use back-ups in midfield and perhaps even up front, though the latter might be getting a bit too greedy.Irrespective of new additions, the current Tottenham Hotspur squad clearly seems very fit to deploy a back-three system, and there are few better managers for that currently than Conte.He unquestionably can turn them into serious top-four contenders this season, which means that Man United will not have an Ben Mason Jersey easy route to being the best of the rest this time.The Red Devils may have picked up the three points on the weekend in a match dubbed El Sackico, but in hiring Conte, it is Tottenham who are the real winners.Read: .
