Chelsea’s Record-Breaker Antonio Conte Proves He’s the Armani of Managers
- Updated: December 18, 2016
SELHURST PARK, LONDON — Chelsea boss Antonio Conte didn’t want to acknowledge it himself on Saturday, but it doesn’t mean we can’t do exactly that for him. His team’s record-breaking run of form this season has shown the Italian to be among the best of the world’s football managers. If we didn’t know it already, he’s in the established elite.
For a man who so often speaks of his role as being akin to that of a humble tailor in the process that makes a great football team, Conte’s showing himself to be so much more. The Chelsea manager isn’t a man who is stitching just any garment together at Stamford Bridge; he’s fashioning something beautiful. Indeed, his creation is looking close to perfect.
Conte’s Chelsea aren’t pret-a-porter; his team is couture. There’s a big difference between both.
The 3-4-3 effect: 11 wins in a row for Chelsea
