Revealing Conte's 'hot' moment in the locker room
Coach Antonio Conte was very angry and twice scolded his players in the locker room for the humiliating defeat at Crystal Palace.
In the absence of Kante and Morata, Chelsea played below their best, allowing Crystal Palace to "torture" them throughout the first 45 minutes. In the end, the bottom team defeated the defending champions 2-1.

Conte disappointed with his players' performance |
In a post-match interview, Conte hoped his players would quickly forget the defeat and focus on the upcoming matches. However, the Italian strategist himself was very angry about his players' performance.
According to the Telegraph, Conte scolded his players for being too subjective and arrogant when playing away at Selhurst Park.
He also warned that Chelsea will continue to slide if their players continue to show such a weak spirit and disrespectful attitude towards their opponents.
Conte did not "name" any players, but it was not difficult to see that he was very disappointed with the performance of striker Michy Batshuayi.
Given a starting position, but during the 57 minutes on the field, Batshuayi played poorly, only making one shot that went wide of the goal.

Witnessing the Belgian striker's poor form, Conte could not keep calm. He hoped that Chelsea's leaders would spend money to recruit another striker to support Morata in the winter transfer window.
Last summer, Conte wanted to bring Llorente to Stamford Bridge. In the end, the Spanish striker joined Tottenham for 12 million pounds. Meanwhile, Chelsea only offered 5 million pounds.
Conte is currently targeting a few names such as Christian Benteke, Jamie Vardy and the striker who is rising at Red Star Belgrade - Richmond Boakye.
