Chelsea’s performance against Everton on Saturday was flawless but Antonio Conte isn’t happy that Chelsea will have to stop for the international break after such a fine form.

“The fifth clean sheet in a row is fantastic because if you look at the past you can think this is incredible to reach this result,” Conte told BT Sport.

“But I’m pleased. It’s a pity we have to stop for the international break.

“I wanted to continue. I am pleased for all the players, they are fantastic: the commitment, the work rate during the game, with the ball and without the ball. I am pleased tonight [Saturday], but we must continue to work very hard.”
