Antonio Conte will return to Tottenham on Sunday with stand-in boss Cristian Stellini warning their attempts to instil a winning mentality at the club have been hindered by problems deeply rooted in the past.
'It came from a long time ago, not just this season,' said Stellini as he addressed the dismal nature of the FA Cup exit at the hands of Sheffield United on Wednesday, which he blamed on attitude, and lack of hunger.
'Every season, sometimes it's better and sometimes lower, but every season it is similar so it's a problem that Tottenham is out in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
