Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has reiterated his belief that it is too early to talk about his side winning the Premier League title this season.
The Blues have emerged as fron-runners to win the league courtesy of a run of seven consecutive victories, the most recent of which came against the previously-unbeaten Tottenham Hotspur this evening.
However, despite regaining their place at the top of the table with the win, Conte insists that there are still as many as seven teams who could win the title this season.
"These games are difficult. It was a tough game with a lot of intensity," he told reporters.
"It's too early to talk of the title. This league is very tough. Tottenham showed in this league there are six or seven teams that can win the title. It's important to continue in this way and improve the confidence."
Chelsea's next match comes against third-placed Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, with only one point separating the two teams.
