Chelsea boss Antonio Conte knows he could be sacked today

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte admits he could be sacked after today's FA Cup final against Manchester United.

Conte accepts that even winning it might not be enough to save him.

He said: “As you know very well, our job is very difficult. Sometimes you can win but the club decides to sack you anyway because they have a reason to do this."

Conte insisted it is not for him to say whether winning the FA Cup should have any bearing on his future.

"There are other people to judge your work, to judge the season," he said.

“I don't think I'd be the right person to say: 'Okay, if we win I plan this situation,' or if we don't, 'we plan another situation'. I'm not interested in this. I'm interested in winning the final. This is the most important thing for me, for my players."
