Chelsea's second string flattered to deceive at Carrow Road as the 2017 FA Cup finalists were held to a 0-0 draw by Norwich City in the third round.
Goalkeeper Angus Gunn saved well from Willian in one of the few clear-cut chances either side made, and bringing on Alvaro Morata from a youthful substitutes' bench did not have the desired effect for Conte's side. "The schedule is very busy, we have to play two games in the Carabao Cup against Arsenal, but these are the rules and we have to respect that". We had difficulty offensively, we were poor.
But Norwich managed to stem the tide and Alex Pritchard shot over in a rare second-half opening for the hosts.
"When a striker plays he wants to score, but I'm pleased for his commitment and his work for the team".
We expect Conte to shuffle his pack during this congested period, and we could see the likes of David Luiz and Michy Batshuayi get some much craved game-time.
"It's a pity because we wanted to win the game, instead we have to play another game". Right now we have a replay at Chelsea.

Four cops killed in IED blast in J&K's Sopore
Sopore town was shut today in remembrance of over 50 civilians killed in alleged security forces firing on this day in 1993. Six or seven shops have suffered damage as well", he said, adding "it was the first (IED) blast since 2015.
"Norwich deserve to have another game". When you play in this trophy you know it is very hard, but today the commitment of my players was very good.
"To be honest the Premier League title this year will go to Manchester City and the Champions League is not too easy to win, so the FA Cup is the biggest title and also a big opportunity for Chelsea".
"It was obvious that we were pretty close to a win", said Farke.
The first half was an unforgettably forgettable one, with neither keeper being properly tested. For our fans and our club a really good moment.
Chelsea were abysmal in the first half, but looked slightly brighter when they came out after the break. We are a bit disappointed because it is not that often you are so close to beating a giant like Chelsea in the FA Cup.
