Sean Dyche has Had His Say: "You could probably say there’s 10 clubs whose main focus is being in the Premier League. As the season progresses there’s ups and downs and ins and out behind that, so we look at the whole season. You can’t just think it’s about playing Chelsea, our first five or six away games are tough on paper. You have to take them all on at some point. There’s an obvious run of tough games coming at the beginning of the season, that’s the way it is, you just get on with it."

Conte on young players: "This question is not easy. When you speak about pressure with me and I am used to the pressure. For the young players it’s difficult because they are not used to it. They can pay from the pressure."

It's business as usual for Burnley. Andre Gray has found himself at Watford, and Jon Walters is on the bench. He is a truly excellent player at being irritating.

Chelsea start with a sarcastic subs' bench. Only Willy Caballero and Alvaro Morata can consider themselves senior members of the first team squad. Jeremie Boga starts in attack for Chelsea, as Antonio Conte makes a point about wanting more players.
