LEICESTER: Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is confident his squad can cope with a far busier September than last year. The Leicester clash is quickly followed by Tuesday’s Champions League group game at home to Qarabag with Chelsea needing to fulfil seven fixtures in just 21 days, an intense schedule Conte did not have to worry about last season. “A year ago they didn’t know my idea of football, my physical work and the analysis,” he said. “I want to win as much as possible, I don’t want to only have one Premier League medal in my drawer at home – it would be an empty glass cabinet. “I know it’ll involve moving the family again but it’ll give them a different experience to see different cultures.”--AFP
