Chelsea's 10th-place finish shows how much work they have to do but should inspire them to avoid further failures, says Antonio Conte.

Antonio Conte has once again cautioned his Chelsea players not to forget the ignominy of a 10th-place finish last season.

Conte oversaw three consecutive Premier League wins at the start of his tenure but a 2-2 draw at Swansea City, followed by back-to-back defeats against Liverpool and Arsenal leave the 2014-15 champions playing catch-up once more when they travel to Hull City on Saturday.

The former Juventus and Italy head coach warned his players they could finish in mid-table again unless they correct the errors from last weekend's sorry 3-0 collapse at Emirates Stadium.
