Antonio Conte marked his 100th game as Chelsea boss with win at Burnley but the Italian knows his number's up

It's a little hard to sympathise with Antonio Conte when the Chelsea manager complains that he has a harder job than Sean Dyche.

True, the Italian has to put up with the inevitable politics at Stamford Bridge in the knowledge that his second season there will almost surely be his last. Like the rest of them, he is just a coach passing through, keeping the hot-seat warm for the next incumbent.

In many ways, his is the polar opposite to Dyche’s situation at Turf Moor. The English coach with a five-year contract and the total backing of his board.
