Conte hails ‘fantastic’ Chelsea fans after Morata-inspired win
Boss Antonio Conte praised Chelsea’s fans following the 4-0 win over Stoke City.
More than 3200 made the trip to the bet365 Stadium and were rewarded with a clinical victory.
Alvaro Morata grabbed a hat-trick and Pedro scored a fine long-range strike as the Blues earned a fourth win in five Premier League matches.
“Our fans were fantastic today and they pushed a lot for the team in every moment in the game,” the Italian said.
“Don’t forget in this stadium the crowd pushed a lot and I want to thank our fans because they helped the team a lot today.”
Conte also praised Blues fans for singing their support for Morata with a new chant, less than two weeks after an offensive song was sung by some fans in the away win over Leicester.
The new song declared Morata was better than Tottenham striker Harry Kane.
“It was a great,” said Conte. “It was good change I am pleased for this.”
