Full-time.Full-time. Jordan slammed Conte for his excuses as he told talkSPORT (via ): "We have to constantly hear about how tired the players are when there's a summer tournament. Now we have a beginning of the season tournament and they're tired too. So now we are yet again listening to how players are tired. Okay, wheel Martin Keown in and he can tell us why they're tired or not tired. I do find it preposterous." Jordan added on the Tottenham manager: "It seems to me there's a constant narrative that whenever someone doesn't want to do something or get an outcome they wanted, everybody's tired.

Speaking to the media after the game, Conte said: "We know, we see the situation, and in the last period many times, maybe seven games we were 1-0 down and in some games 2-0 down. I think that can happen. "In this moment, we have to stay and to find positive things because if you go to negative things, I think on one side it is okay in the right moment, but this is not the right moment. Because the period is really, really tough and they are losing a lot of physical and mental energy. They are losing a lot of things to be stronger with my players."
