Antonio Conte responds
Manager Antonio Conte took aim at his midfield and the team’s overall energy. He said the side lacked quality in midfield and paid the price on the break.
Conte also addressed public comments from club president Aurelio De Laurentiis about his future. Speaking to DAZN, he said matters with the president should be handled privately, not publicly.
He warned against media speculation and urged silence while the season concludes. Conte argued internal discussions remain preferable to public debate.
What comes next
