Conte not worrying about new Chelsea record

Chelsea extended their winning run to nine matches in the Premier League on Sunday.

Antonio Conte's side defeated West Bromwich Albion 1-0 at Stamford Bridge to go within two of their own league winning record of 11, which is just behind Arsenal's all-time record of 13.

However, Conte is simply concerned with picking up three points each time his Blues step out onto the pitch.

"I'm not interested in the record," said Conte.

"I'm interested in gaining three points in every game because that means we can stay top of the table, and fight for something important."

It was Diego Costa again who gave Chelsea the win with his 12th goal of the season in the 76th minute to get past the Baggies.
