Conte: I'm a Chelsea Hero Regardless of FA Cup Result

   Antonio Conte says that he should still be considered a hero even if his Chelsea side falls short of lifting silverware this season.

Conte
    The Italian won the Premier League title in his first season at Stamford Bridge but has since seen his side decline in form, finishing outside of the top four to miss out on Champions League football next season.

   Chelsea have one last chance to win a trophy in the FA Cup final against Manchester United on Saturday, but they will still have failed in their minimum target of a top four finish in the league.

"I haven't changed my commitment to the club," the manager told reporters at Cobham Training Ground.
"My commitment has always been the same. Maybe this season we worked even harder than last season. I don't know if something has changed - last season I was a hero for Chelsea fans.

"Now that has changed. I don't know why, but in my soul and my heart, I'm always a hero because I gave 120 per cent this season. It's right to separate work and silverware because if you don't win it means you didn't work very hard."

Arsenal have lost the Premier League title – Allardyce

                                 Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce has slammed Arsene Wenger, saying Arsenal have blown their best chance of ending their Premier League title drought. The Gunners chances of winning a first league title since 2004 were dealt a severe blow with their 3-3 draw against West Ham on Saturday. Wenger’s men are therefore now 10 points adrift of surprise leaders Leicester City, who can extend their lead when they play relegation-threatened Sunderland on Sunday. And Allardyce reminded Wenger of just how big a chance Arsenal have let slip this season. “They won’t get a better time to win the league than this season,” he told reporters. “A normal season would have seen Leicester, having the season they’ve had, maybe finishing in the top four, which would have been miraculous. “But they’ve had an opportunity that, without any doubt, Arsenal have missed.
