Antonio Conte ‘will not apologise for passion’
“On the pitch, everything was an example because the players fought hard, they fought very hard for every ball but in a positive way”.
After the match United manager, and former Chelsea manager, José Mourinho commented on Conte’s exuberant celebrations.
Conte and Mourinho will be looking to come out on top in the FA Cup quarter-final at Stamford Bridge on Monday night as both hope to close in on a potential double.
The report claims Chelsea are not planning on offering Terry a new contract, meaning this season will likely be his last at Stamford Bridge as a player.
“We are not [all] the same. I don’t know if it’s too much or not, to win, but I think he deserves respect for his past, for his work”.
In recent weeks, Mourinho has described Chelsea as “a very defensive team” who have succeeded with “counter-attack goals and set-piece goals”.
Antonio Conte has said he enjoys sharing his enthusiasm during matches.
They enter the game as complete underdogs, with Chelsea – unbeaten at home since September – entering the encounter following an entire week’s preparation. It’s unusual to ask me this. I had the feeling in the first half that everything was completely under control. However you can squeeze more value out of a win and both teams to score.
The Belgium global has won the Premier League, EFL Cup, and Europa League titles, but the FA Cup has eluded him thus far in his Blues career.
Ibrahimovic is out for three games after receiving a ban for violent conduct from the Football Association, according to BBC Sport. It’s no different. Obviously before the game and after the game, I’ll meet some fans and some people I like. “We have to win”, Conte stressed. Not only in words.
“We want to go into the next round, in the same way Manchester United do, so I will try and make the best decision for the team”. Before the October game I was sure we were facing a great team.
