“I’m pleased for him, but also for Pedro as a winger”, Conte told the media in postgame.

Napoli have placed an off-putting £60m price-tag on centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly and AC Milan rejecting two bids for highly-rated 21 year-old Alessio Romangnoli.
Antonio Conte admits it will be hard for Chelsea to land their transfer targets before Wednesday’s deadline due to a “crazy” market.
He said: “I believe with this market it’s very hard”.
“The most important thing, after 13 games conceding a goal at home, we didn’t concede a goal”.
Tottenham and Liverpool have both made slow starts to the season and neither side could prevail, playing out a 1-1 draw.
“Dyche added: “This is how insane football has gone; against Accrington we were giants and Saturday we’re minnows!”
“These are players with great talent, fantastic in one versus one”. “When we start in this way you can work better, and also the players can trust the work more”. Not fourth, fifth or sixth, 10th!
“First Courtois, second Begovic, third is Eduardo”.
“We have now played four official games – against West Ham a good game, against Watford so-so, this game we started very well and for the whole game we played good football”. This game was 25 per cent ball possession for Burnley, and 75 for Liverpool, and the final result was 2-0 to Burnley. “The players have the right attitude and this is very important for me”.
And he says Chelsea fall into the category of teams Burnley are not expected to win against.
Burnley, newly promoted from the Championship, hadn’t won a league game at the Bridge for 45 years – and from the moment Hazard scored after only nine minutes it looked hugely unlikely they would break that duck. “When you leave it open a situation like tonight can happen when you stay afraid of drawing the game until the end”.

“Burnley are a very solid team in defence and always waiting to counter-attack with two very good forwards”.
