Antonio Conte was explaining how he had started watching the All or Nothing series on Amazon documenting last season behind the scenes at Arsenal.
‘Really, really interesting,’ said the Tottenham boss, expanding the point to reveal his natural curiosity for learning how rival managers go about their business and tackle problems thrown their way. ‘To be honest, I didn’t finish watching it but sure, in the future I will finish this documentary.’
Didn’t finish it? Oh Antonio, you are going to love the way it ends. Conte’s face creased into a huge smile and he quickly confessed he had indeed skipped forward to savour the ending.
