Conte: “All the players have to accept that rotation is part of this aspect”
Conte has warned his Tottenham players that they must accept that top clubs have big squads and rotation happens.
The Italian also admitted that he wants to break the habit at Spurs where certain players expect to be starting every match.
Conte said: “All the players have to accept that rotation is part of this aspect.
“I have to take the best decision, sometimes for the players.
“Sometimes it’s better to come in for 20-30 minutes for them.
“I’m here to change the habit. The habit was that the players were used to playing all the time. Big clubs have a big squad.
“At the moment we don’t have a big squad but we have just started this process.”
