Como head coach Cesc Fabregas spoke about Antonio Conte, under whose leadership he played for Chelsea.

"Conte is probably the best coach in recent years. He was my coach at Chelsea for two seasons. At first I didn't play, but I learned a lot from him. He made me suffer a little bit during training, but I respect him, he showed me things I had never seen before in my career.
He told me at the beginning that I would not be part of the starting lineup, but he always respected me. I worked hard and did not complain, and after four months I became a player in the main lineup. I learned a lot from his methods and his mentality," Fabregas was quoted as saying by Football Italia.
