Antonio Conte has praised forward Michy Batshuayi
The striker scored twice in Chelsea’s win against Arsenal in China.
He’s been struggling to establish himself since his move from Marseille, however, Batshuayi ended last season in fine goalscoring form, scoring four goals in Chelsea’s final three league matches, which included the winner at West Brom which clinched the title.
And now the Belgian opened their pre-season campaign by beating the Gunners 3-0.
“Last season it was a difficult season for Michy but don’t forget he scored a very important goal to give us the title,” said Blues boss Conte.
“I think last season he had a bit of difficulty because it is not easy to play in the Premier League. It is a physical league and a very strong league.
“After one year he is working very well and he is improving. He is a young player with great potential.”
