Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is delighted with the preseason form of Michy Batshuayi.

The Belgian struck twice in victory over Arsenal yesterday in Beijing.

Conte remarked: "Last season it was a difficult season for Michy but don't forget he scored a very important goal to give us the title. I think last season he had a bit of difficulty because it is not easy to play in the Premier League. It is a physical league and a very strong league.

"After one year he is working very well and he is improving. Me and my staff want to improve every player and Batshuayi is a young player with great potential and it is important for him and for us to work in this way, and for him to understand what I want. For me the striker is very important, he is a point of reference. If he stays in the right position, it is easier for us, for the team and to play good football."
