Antonio Conte: ‘This Chelsea star is a Football Genius’

Antonio Conte has hailed Cesc Fabregas as a ‘top player’ and a’Football genius’

Having been pretty much replaced by Kante and Nemanja Matic in midfield, Fabregas has found it hard to get some game time under Conte.

The Spaniard has now found himself linked to loan moves and sales to a few clubs, including West Ham United and Manchester City.

However, none of this has impacted the respect and admiration Chelsea Boss Antonio Conte has for the veteran footballer.

“Cesc is a top player and a genius at football. I can talk [about him] in the same way as about Andrea Pirlo. In the same way. We are talking about a genius of football.

“Cesc if he doesn’t run 100m in 10 seconds, I can allow him this, because he’s a genius with the ball. His velocity is in his mind. With Cesc we are working a lot on tactical aspects and to improve also his positioning. Cesc I think is different.”

Some very high praise from the Italian tactician there.

Chelsea remain top of the table, with a 10 point lead over fellow London clubs Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur
