| Chelsea manager Antonio Conte |
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is confident his squad can cope
with a far busier September than last year.
The reigning Premier League champions will kick off at Leicester
on Saturday in sixth place on six points, one spot below West Bromwich and one
above Watford while Leicester are three points worse off and fifth from bottom
after three games.
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.
48-year-old Italian was confident that all the hard work he was
able to put in on the training ground in his first campaign meant his ideas
were now firmly embedded in his players' minds.
The Leicester game also provides new signing Danny Drinkwater
with the opportunity to make his debut against the club that sold him for
£35million on Sunday .
