Mikel and Hazard also recalled that Conte frequently interrupted training to give tactical advice.
Hazard said: ‘All week training. On Saturday I was going out, I need to enjoy myself a little because I know that the next day I will train again. I have to do something, it’s my only 90 minutes that I can enjoy.
‘You remember, stopping, tactics, ‘no, we have to do that.’ “Saturday was the best day for me.”
