3 things Conte learned from Chelsea’s defiant 1-1 victory with Liverpool

Resolute Defence

Chelsea haven’t had to sit back and defend much this season, but the Blues had to really dig in against Klopp’s side.

Often unable to hold the ball for large passages of play, Chelsea were often limited to having 10 players behind the ball – and it would have delighted Conte at how resolute his defence was.

The Blues haven’t really had much practice at it, and so Conte will now know how well his side can do when under pressure.
