Maybe Eden will start the season lean and cut now with that workout! No more chubby Hazard to open the season. He can look like Willian rather than Götze. 

Hazard could probably lose the fluff with some serious HIIT sessions Conte already knows what to do

Apparently, this is one of the training sessions during the Italy's EURO 2016 journey.

That makes the players sprint 3 kilometres in 21 minutes.

That's not all apparently...

We need to transfer my idea of football and for this reason I need a bit of time. But I'm happy to have this great telepathy with the players because we are changing the work compared to the last seasons, in the physical and tactical aspect.

" He also graduated with Honours in Physical Education with a thesis on "Psychology
Hes going to need it to get into ALL the lads heads when they're being sick and wanting to punch him lol

I've fully bought inro him already but fuck I hope we get our defence sorted out. Its the only thing that worries me right now.

Passion + hard work stood out, most fans wouldn't have minded as much if we showed more passion last season.Hard but fair Mr Conte seems. Hopefully Kante's passion and engine helps to kickstart ConteCfc era plus others follow suit.

Well he started nodding off after Jan time. But so did all the others. We were just lucky to have some points in hand and the other teams playing worse than us.

True . Interesting to see if he goes in transfer market? If we had a crystal ball and see that he wouldn't return to 14/15 season form then I would flog him lol.

Yeah I'd keep him 4sure as that area and CB are great concern to me . Yeah if that is the case our board better grab a set and play hardball for once, and they still want "square" lol also ! Matic+Square+50mill for Pogba+Bonucci if not jog on.

Antonio Conte is just about to give his first press conference in LA. Highlights to appear here...

Conte: 'In these two days we worked a lot but we want to play a good game against Liverpool and I want to see improvement of my players.'

Conte: 'When you have a bad season like last season for Chelsea I think the blame is a bit with all.'

Conte: 'For this reason it’s important to create a good spirit and stay together, both if we win or lose.'

Conte: 'We have to trust in our work, our ideas and our confidence. This is the most important thing.'

Conte on fatigue in his players: 'I know they are a bit tired but it’s normal. It’s important to prepare a good season.'

Conte: 'Matic is an important player for me, a very important player. In my idea of football he is an important player and he knows this.'

Conte on Kante: 'He played a fantastic season with Leicester, for me a good Euros, and now I can’t wait to see him and work with him'

Conte: ' N’Golo, Nemanja, Cesc, Oscar, Chalobah and Mikel who is in the Olympics, it is not easy to choose. I want to have this problem.'

Conte: 'The spirit is always important. You can have a fantastic player but if there isn’t a team, good spirit, then it’s very difficult.'

That's all from Antonio for today. More to come online later...
