The Spurs do count on Conte to take back to the dugout ‘after a period of recovery’. Tottenham are going through a difficult season. Although the Londoners are through to the last sixteen of the Champions League, they are having a hard time in the competition. After the winter break, Aston Villa (0-2), Arsenal (0-2) and Manchester City (4-2) were already lost. The club is fifth in the Premier League and already has six points more than number four Manchester United.
