Antonio Conte must ensure Chelsea mistake isn't repeated at Tottenham amid Champions League wish

It has already been a positive journey since Antonio Conte's arrival at Tottenham and everyone will be hoping that continues. However, the Italian will need to ensure the same mistakes aren't made, which were seen during the downfall at Chelsea.

Conte made the move to the London club in April 2016, near the end of the 2016/17 campaign, in which the Blues finished tenth. The 52-year-old's impact helped his Chelsea side win the Premier League title the following season, but after his side dropped to fifth in the 2017/18 campaign, the Italian was sacked.

There are some similarities between Conte's early time at Chelsea and what he started at Tottenham. Both clubs have seen him implement a 3-4-3 formation, which has worked well, on the whole, adapting the roles of individuals and improving team performances.
