Conte:"I found great talents at Chelsea. Abramovich? He's demanding but passionate"

After leading the Italian national team to the quarter finals of the recent Euro, Antonio Conte is establishing himself in the Premier League. The Italian manager spoke about his decision to join Chelsea with Paolo Condo' during the first show of "Mister Condo'" on Sky Sport:"Going to coach the national team was a form of respect towards Juventus. In the 50 days we were together with the players on national team (before and during the Euro) we built something unique and extraordinary. A family. When we lost to Germany everyone was crying because we knew the day after we wouldn't see each other. Had I not already signed with Chelsea I couldn't have abandoned the players, there was a moment when I regretted this decision"

After just three vacation days he started a new adventure in London:"The energy spent in France was truly a lot. We then threw ourselves in this new world immediately, a totally different experience. A great club, new with different players and routines. Abramovich? He's demanding but very passionate. He doesn't suffer because of football but wants to know. He came many times to watch the practices and be with the group. He wants to know and that is beautiful. Here the facilities are extraordinary and I work more than in Italy. Differences with my first Juve? There I knew everything, I knew how to intervene on everything and it was probably easier. Here everything is new but at the level of players I found some great talents. But talent needs to be worked on so it can be inserted on a team. It's well known I don't handle losses well, I try to avoid them at all cost. With work, almost maniacal. I want the players to have more information so they avoid losing. When we lose I should take it more serenely, even my family tells me so. But I can't sleep, I try to understand why. I would like to be more superficial sometimes. But the day I'll be more superficial I will have lost everything that I am"
