Their form comes with two games against Manchester City in the space of 17 days.

Ahead of their trip to the Etihad Stadium, Conte hit out at reporters after he was questioned about Harry Kane might feel about Tottenham’s recent form.

He responded: “You can put this question to the club, OK. Keep this question for the future and I hope for you it happens one day that you can make this question to the club.

“Why do I have to answer this question? It’s not disrespectful from you but I repeat: we are always telling you the same thing.”

Conte’s own future has also been a major talking point in recent weeks with his contract expiring at the end of the season.

And the ex-Chelsea manager has continuously refused to commit to the North London club despite often saying he’s happy at the club.

But Carragher revealed that he’s lost patience with Conte when speaking ahead of the trip to City.

He said: “Antonio Conte’s interviews, I don’t know how Spurs fans are feeling about it, but I’m sick of listening to them.

“I don’t think it inspires Spurs supporters coming here tonight, it’s always really negative.

“But the big problem is, when you don’t get results when you’ve got a manager like Antonio Conte, it’s difficult to put up with the negative press conferences, the complaining to Daniel Levy and the board and cryptic messages coming out at different times.”

Carragher then commented about Conte’s future and reckons the club might be having doubts over whether they want the Italian to stay at the club beyond his contract expiring.

He added: “I actually felt for the last six months there’s been a question for the Tottenham board, how do we get Antonio Conte to sign a new contract?

“I think right now, the Spurs board will be thinking do we want him to sign a new Tottenham contract?”
