Antonio Conte, in a recent interview, talked about his time in English the top-tier league. The 50-year-old stated, "At Chelsea, I won the Premier League in the first year and the FA Cup in the second year. Klopp hasn't won anything yet in England after four years and Guardiola didn't win anything in his first year." Conte is, arguably, one of the best coaches in European football at this moment and the Italian is aware of his qualities. 

Conte's Inter Milan are placed at the second position in the Serie A table. They are just three points away from league leaders Juventus. With these two teams snapping at each other's heels, we are sure that it is going to be a great season of football in the Italian top-tier league.
