The Blues suffered a shock 3-1 defeat to Tottenham at Stamford Bridge on Sunday and now look certain to miss out on the Champions League qualification spot.

Ironically, Allegri replaced Conte at Juventus four years ago and led them to the finals of the Champions League twice, while Conte failed to qualify for the last-16 in his final season. It will be interesting to see how situations will turn out after he replaces Conte again at Chelsea.

Following Sunday’s lose, The Blues are eight points behind fourth place Spurs in the Premier League table. Conte set to see out the remainder of the season and is eyeing for the FA glory before he is sacked in the summer.
