Chelsea boss Antonio Conte warns fans over Champions League expectations

Published on: 06 December 2017

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has played down their chances of winning the Champions League this season.

Conte reckons it will take a special effort to be crowned Europe's top dog, despite beating the odds in the Premier League last season.

He said: “With five [English] teams to go through to the next round means the level of this league is very high.

“Don't forget here this season is very tough. You have to play a lot of games, but when you arrive at the final stage to play for quarter-finals, semi-finals, the English teams have a lot of games in their legs.

“For this reason I think it could be problematic to win [the Champions League].

“It's not a problem. We are Chelsea. We can face any team. We know PSG and Barcelona, they are very good.

“But we are Chelsea and we have to be ready for everything. We can do everything."
