Chelsea winger Willian has taken a major dig at Antonio Conte after The Blues FA Cup 1-0 win over Manchester United on Saturday.

Despite the FA Cup win, it will not be enough for Conte to save his Stamford Bridge job but he will be happy to have won a trophy in his last season with Chelsea.

After the Saturday’s match, the Italian manager challenged Chelsea’s board to either back or sack him as he insisted that he will not change his style of play.

It is no secret that Conte has had bust-ups with several players during his time at Chelsea and recent one being with Willian after the Brazilian posted a picture that appeared to target Conte on Instagram.

‘Oh boy! Do you really want me to tell you?’ he replied.
