PHOTO: Chelsea coach, Antonio Conte insists he gets embarrassed by Chelsea fans chanting his name during games
Conte, this season has been the manager who has done what nobody thought
was possible, after the miserable way Chelsea fell-off the way they did last season, under Jose Mourinho; just few months after been crowned English champions...
so, for
Chelsea fans, they owe the Italian for bringing back what they already used to...which
is winning...and the chanting of Conte’s name is for them, their own way of saying 'thank
you'...
Conte while speaking on this, said though he’s happy, but hearing his
name like that, means so much to him, even though it is sometimes, ‘embarrassing’
...He said:
‘They are incredible!’
‘I remember my first game against West Ham they prepared the flag with
three colours, the Italy flag, the Tricolore. And then they showed me very soon
great enthusiasm, great passion.
‘For me it’s fantastic to hear my name during the game, at home or away.
Sometimes I’m embarrassed, but it’s fantastic.
‘Honestly the first time happen, with Everton, my assistant coach called
me to tell me, ‘Mister, the crowd is singing for you.” And then I understood:
“Antonio, Antonio, Antonio…’
‘Away, [the fans] are incredible. In Liverpool – believe me, it is very
difficult to hear the other fans, the opposition fans – and there were 3,000 of
our fans, and they pushed a lot our team.
