I think that is fair.I'm not one of these fans who's out there claiming we're going to win anything - we're Spurs, bottling it is what we do.
But in the past 6 seasons, we've reached 3 cup finals (including the UCL), had three top-3 finishes and one top-2 finish. Sure, we didn't win any of them, because we lack the mentality and at times lacked the quality. But the claim that we don't compete is demonstrably false.
Will we win stuff under Conte? No idea, but he's our best bet, and streets ahead of Pochettino. Put us in three cup finals under Conte and my feeling would be that we'd win one or two of them. Richarlison presumably agrees.
I think the biggest difficulty that ye face may be keeping Conte long term, he really doesn't hang around any of the teams he has managed too long, but if ever there was a season where Spurs need to do well, this is it.
