WHAT THEY SAID: Carragher reacted to the Tottenham manager's diatribe after the game and thinks the coach is eager to leave the Premier League side.

"Conte wants to be sacked in this international break. Spurs should just put him out of his misery and do it tonight," he wrote on Twitter.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Conte is expected to leave Tottenham at the end of the season when his contract in north London expires. Saturday's draw leaves Spurs still in fourth place in the Premier League table but now just two points above Newcastle who have two games in hand on Conte's men.
