Antonio Conte won three league titles with Juventus between 2011 and 2014
Chelsea supporters may be somewhat surprised to hear Italy manager Antonio Conte looks set to become their manager from 2016/17 given the rumours that have surrounded Atletico Madrid‘s Diego Simeone for the last 18 months, as well as the fine job Guus Hiddink is doing as interim boss, but Conte has proven himself an outstanding young coach with an enviable track record most could dream of. What remains to be seen is if he can translate that into Premier League success.
What can Chelsea supporters expect from Conte?
The former Juventus boss is unorthodox compared to the majority of modern-day coaches. He’s not one for conventional tactics, but instead likes two striking options in attac…
Bayern Munich head coach Pep Guardiola has bemoaned his squad s lack of a superstar talent such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.
Guardiola s Barca side that swept all before them between 2008 and 2012 was led by the brilliance of Messi, who was transformed into the false nine who has dominated the European game by the Catalan coach.

Looking to extend on their Europa League romp on Thursday evening, Roma will travel to the Fortuna Arena when they meet Slavia Prague.
Slavia Prague
Starting with the hosts, while Slavia Prague might find themselves still sat in pole position to punch their Europa League knockout stage ticket, Jindřich Trpisovsky’s men are seeking an immediate response. Slumping to a 2-0 loss when they travelled to Roma a fortnight ago, the Czech giants failed to pick up any real momentum over the weekend. Eventually falling to a shock 2-1 loss at the hands of Plzen, the Salvists have now lost two of their previous three appearances across all competitions. However, despite facing another tough examination here, Trpisovsky’s side do hold an eye-ca…
Tom Brady almost joined the Las Vegas Raiders in 2020 after a deal was brokered by UFC chief Dana White – only for Jon Gruden to walk away from negotiations in the final stages.
Elite quarterback and perennial winner Brady entered the 2020 season as a free agent, despite boasting six Super Bowl titles and nine AFC championships.

The intervention of then-Raiders coach Gruden prov…
