“Conte has come and has been working for one or two months, and with games and a lot of things happen, Covid and injuries, maybe he didn’t have the time he wants and the time he desires to put the team to play in his own way.” “When you are working in top teams and you are winning everywhere you go, you win titles, it’s going to be a challenge for the players and also for me. “It’s going to be another big challenge against someone who was a top professional as a player and is one of the best managers now in the world.
