The Blues suffered frustrating defeats against Liverpool and Arsenal in the middle of September, this all after three straight wins to start the season.

However, despite a few defensive mishaps in those two games, Conte’s side have recorded three consecutive victories without conceding a goal – the latest of those a 4-0 drubbing of Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United on Sunday.
