Chelsea manager, Antonio Conte, 47 has urged his side to complete the job in “a big week for the club”, as they prepare to face Arsenal this weekend.
Conte’s men lost 3-0 in the reverse fixture at the Emirates last September, as the Gunners blew them away in a first-half blitz.
“We have to concentrate and prepare for Arsenal, because we face another great team – that’s what they are. They can fight for the title,” he said after their 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Tuesday.
“This week is very important for us and we want to finish in the right way.
“This was a good result for sure, but we wasted a lot of energy in a difficult atmosphere, and don’t forget in the previous game we lost 3-0 away to Arsenal. This could be a good chance for us to show now in second half of season we are a totally different team if you compare the previous game.”
Conte also added that his squad is now secure until the end of the season, even though the Chinese transfer window is still open until February 28.
He added: “Is it still open in China? For us, the market is finished. Not buy, not sell, and I am very happy with that – our market is finished.”
