After The Game Eden Hazard praised the impact of Conte, who enjoyed a successful playing career with Juventus and Italy – unlike Mourinho who never made the grade as a player.

“I think most important thing is to work to improve the squad and improve your players”.

He concluded: “I am very pleased to work with the players I have because the attitude and work-rate I see every day is fantastic”, but stated that “We are working together to find the right solution to improve this squad”.

“There are others but above all I’m talking about the wingers”.

“It’s important to have many players to face these situations, but this market is very insane and we are seeing that it’s very hard to reach our targets”.

Burnley went in at the break 2-0 down to goals from Eden Hazard and Willian, having failed to lay a glove on the hosts.

“For the defence and everybody it’s important”, the Belgian added.

Burnley may have beaten Liverpool with 19 percent possession of the ball last weekend, but Conte’s rampant side never looked remotely like falling for the counter-punch.

The victory ensures Antonio Conte’s maintained their flawless start to the season with their third Premier League win in a row and also overtake Manchester City atop the English topflight log.

Arriving in 2014, the 29-year-old was pivotal in Chelsea’s 2014-15 title charge however after a disappointing season as a reigning champion, the former Barcelona and Arsenal man will be allowed to look for a new club.

Dyche, who confirmed Burnley are close to taking Patrick Bamford on loan from Chelsea said: “There’s a huge gulf between where we are as a club and where they are”.

As far as betting is concerned, I think we are getting way too short of a price to bet on Chelsea to win so I am going to avoid that play.

“Now we have a game against Burnley that is more important than the transfer market”.

“We didn’t perform well in the first half and you can not do that”.

“We’re looking and we’re certainly active”, he said.
