However, despite their impressive form, Conte seems to have played down the prospect of his Tottenham squad challenging for the Premier League title this term.

According to the Italian coach, his Spurs players do not have the same experience of competing for major trophies as those at Man City, Chelsea, and Liverpool.

“The Premier League is very difficult. In my opinion, I think we have just started a path to fight for something important. We have just started. City, Liverpool and Chelsea have been very competitive and won a lot," Conte said as quoted by Express UK.
"When you have a massive game every three days you need a good squad," he added.
