Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara was also in agreement with Carragher and Redknapp over Conte’s position and feels Levy, who was in attendance at St Mary’s on Saturday, will be unhappy with the Italian’s comments.
O’Hara told Sky Sports: “I can’t believe he’s come out after a game and said that. I think it’s shocking.
“I don’t necessarily disagree with him on some of the things that he said in terms of desire and passion and players not playing for each other, but these things are said in the dressing room after the game, or on a Monday morning, or you speak to Daniel Levy.
“To come out publicly and totally criticise the whole football club I think is outrageous.
“The players are obviously going to hear that interview – he’s bashed them. If you’re digging them out in the media they will turn their back.
“For him to say ‘they’ and not ‘we’ that to me says potentially the players are not playing for him, he’s looking for a way out.
“I don’t think he necessarily wants to be there, and I think the club are going to have to make a huge decision.
“I don’t think Daniel Levy is going to like that interview. If Conte makes next weekend I will be surprised. I think he is looking for a way out.
“He’s talked about being selfish, but he is the one being selfish when you have talked about and are criticising everyone at the club apart from yourself.
“That to me screams alarm bells, and I think Levy will look at the comments he’s made, because he’s included Levy in those comments and say, ‘Enough is enough, we can’t have this from a Tottenham manager’.
“We all wanted it to work out and it hasn’t and it’s just getting a bit sour now.
“Maybe you look at it and go, ‘If we can get a manager in next week like Pochettino, let’s do it now, let’s cut ties and move on’.
“You haven’t got to pay him [Conte] out a four or five-year deal that he’s signed. His contract is up at the end of the season, it’s not going to cost a lot to let him leave, and by the sounds of it, he doesn’t want to be there.”
