Juventus boss Conte happy to be regarded as title favourites

Juventus coach Antonio Conte is happy for his team to be regarded as title favourites.

The Bianconeri are still unbeaten this season and clear at the top of the table with a game in hand, as their midweek trip to Parma was snowed off.

“I must thank the media, who are starting to see Juventus as Scudetto favourites. We did extraordinary work and things are evolving in a fantastic way. Over a few months, the hierarchy of Italian football has changed.

“It’s fun looking back over the early reports on us, claiming we didn’t have any big signings, that our June and July work was disastrous and the Coach was a ‘tactical *****.’ Having said that, I continue to consider Milan as the favourites for the title.”
