Antonio Conte: 'It will be difficult to pick Chelsea side'

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte says that he faces a number of selection dilemmas for the club's Premier League clash with Manchester City.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has claimed that he does not know how many changes he will make for the club's Premier League fixture with Manchester City.

The Blues head into the game at Stamford Bridge with an opportunity to move level on points with City, but the game comes less than 72 hours after Conte witnessed his side record a 2-1 win away at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.

Conte will want to name his strongest possible team, but the Italian has acknowledged that the club's recent schedule may play a part in his decision-making.

The 48-year-old told reporters: "I don't know. It is the 7th game in 21 days. It is an important and tough after Atletico. It will not be easy to make a decision tomorrow.

"In my eyes there is the last performance against Atletico. Every player played well. I have to check the physical condition.

"Every single player wants to play in this game. This massive game is only after two days after the last game. We are ready, it is a massive game and we are excited to play."

Chelsea are currently unbeaten in all competitions since the opening weekend of the season.
