Players like Cesc Fabregas and Willian have frequently found themselves on the bench.
No doubt any rotation system is going to leave a few people salty, however, Conte is not one to coddle unhappy players.
When asked if any players had questioned about their limited chances, Conte said: “No, but usually, I don’t like it when I have this type of conversation.
“But in the season I like to have lots of conversation with players – for me this is the first season, I’m knowing these players and they are learning to know me also.
“For this reason it’s important to have a good conversation with all the players. To try always to be honest. I think that the right way is to be honest. I prefer to tell always a better truth than a good lie.
“When one player wants to have an explanation about my choices, my door is always open and the reply is always the same – I want to win and I try always, in every game, to make the best decision.”
