Antonio Conte has been speaking about the difference in his Tottenham players since he joined the club.
Spurs have undergone something of a resurgence under the Italian. Granted, they did just lose 1-0 at the hands of Brighton.
But before that, the Lilywhites had been tearing sides apart on a regular basis such as Newcastle, Leeds and Everton.
Now, in what will no doubt come as music to the ears of many Tottenham fans, Conte has outlined a change in mentality amongst his players, stating he is starting to feel that they hate to lose:
“I think that when I speak about a winning mentality it doesn’t mean you are never going to lose. A winning mentality means you have to approach every game in the right way, to manage the game in the right way. To understand the game,” he said.
“I think when we speak about a winning mentality, there is a process, especially for players. They want to win something in their career as they didn’t have a win before. I always said that we improved a lot in many aspects.
“Also I’m starting to feel that the players start to hate to lose. This is very important. The process is complete when after a defeat you go to your house and you are angry. You want to play another game quickly because you want to forget the loss.”
That time for some late night new Antonio Conte quotes as he says he can see a new side to his Spurs players and that they now hate to lose, his use of video analysis, that he wants them to take on the pressure and some more about Christian Eriksen. https://t.co/AJsCmjnuyo

Brentford vs Tottenham
Tottenham’s next outing sees them face off with Brentford in Saturday’s late Premier League kick-off.
Spurs remain 4th in the Premier League. However, Arsenal are only behind them on goal difference after picking up a huge 4-2 win over Chelsea in midweek.
The Gunners do have to face Manchester United this weekend. But given United’s current form, Arsenal will fancy their chances.
