Chelsea boss Conte dejected: I'm giving everything; I'm very tired

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has declared himself "tired" after their disappointing defeat to Tottenham.

Chelsea lost to Tottenham on home soil for the first time in 28 years on Sunday.

A dejected Conte stated: "I'm giving – the players are giving – everything. We are working very hard to try to have a good season but, in the end, we are deserving this season. It means our value is this.

“I have my opinion but I'm very tired of always repeating the same things. I don't want to create problems. If we are in this position, we deserve to be in this position.

“You have to ask the club, not me [about the significance of finishing in the top four]. I repeat: my task is to work and I know I work 24 hours a day for Chelsea, me and my staff.

“The commitment of the players is top. Despite this we stay in this position. We must be a bit worried about this."
