At 1-0 down at the Emirates Stadium would Antonio Conte have been happy with a point?

Maybe!

But t 2-1 up, with eighty-four minutes gone I`m suspecting that Antonio Conte would have, at the final whistle, been gutted that his side had to settle for a point.

Following the final whistle, Antonio spoke to the media and had this to say,

‘I think it is a pity because when you have so many chances to score you must win the game. Instead we are talking about a draw against a good team, but in this game we deserved to win as we created a lot of chances.

‘We must be disappointed, we had a great chance to win, but we must accept the final result. We win together, we lose together, we draw together.’


But, in all honesty, the game could have been out of Arsenal`s reach if Alvaro Morata had of taken at least one of the one-on-ones he had during the game.

After the game, when asked about his Spanish striker, Antonio had this to say,

‘It is not luck in this period, he has to continue to work and continue to improve. For a striker it is very important to score. It is a pity, he had many chances to score, but I’m very happy with his commitment and effort for the team.’

On another day Morata could have had a hat-trick and we`d all be celebrating a win but that`s football isn`t it?
