Chelsea boss Antonio Conte admits they face a lot of work ahead of them after their 3-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Alexis Sanchez, Theo Walcott and Mesut Ozil put the Gunners out of sight before half-time at the Emirates Stadium.

"I said this before we have two defeats and this message is good for the present and for the future," Conte said. "We must work a lot to improve and change the situation because now we are only a great team on paper, not on the pitch.

"The pitch is the truth, it is the most important thing for us, not the words and not the paper. We must change this because last season was a bad season. There are many difficulties but if we understand this, we are in a great position to recover and change the situation."
