I get the feeling that part of the problem is that he is such an emotional guy that he can't just accept the way the club is run, for instance an Ancelotti would just get on with things and shrug and say "Well, if that's the way they want it I'll get on with it" and the way he graciously accepted the totally undeserved sacking shows the way he is. Conte can't and it affects him deeply. I don't mean that as a criticism, he is what he is and it's what drives him, I'd probably be the same and be walking round with the constant hump like he seems to be. Shame as the board should have seen he was a manager who they could have adapted to rather than the other way around, but now it is probably best he goes as the board won't change.
