    What makes Conte a man in demand?published at 14:00 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2016

    Andrea Pirlo said of his former coach Antonio Conte that when he speaks "his words assault you", adding: "They crash through the doors of your mind, often quite violently, and settle deep within you." 

    Yet despite his Scudetto successes, the 44-year-old's voice carries little resonance outside Italy, and his name little lustre. Why? And why might Chelsea be keen to recruit him?

    There's an interesting subplot to Chelsea's game against Southampton with plenty of history between the fellow Dutch managers Guus Hiddink and Ronald Koeman.

    Koeman played under Hiddink at PSV Eindhoven in the 1980s and was part of Hiddink's coaching staff for the Netherlands' 1998 World Cup campaign.

    But Koeman was left disappointed when was offered the number two role behind Hiddink with the Dutch national team in 2014 - not that there seems to be bad blood between the two.

    "You could notice at that young age [as a player at PSV] that he would have the possibility to go into management," said Hiddink.

    "He is showing to be a very good manager. He has the age. You never know how a career can go but he’s showing stability."

    Right, to this weekend and Chelsea face Southampton, who inflicted a damaging 3-1 defeat on the Blues in the reverse fixture leading to an extraordinary post-match rant by Jose Mourinho.

    The waters are a little calmer at Chelsea these days but they'll have to face Saints without captain John Terry, who is still suffering with a hamstring injury 

    "He’s still in treatment, in the gym, doing exercises on the pitch but not fit," says Guus Hiddink.

    The Dutchman adds that Falcao is still injured (shock) and that Alexandre Pato is also not yet ready to play (double shock).

    Time for some chatter from Chelsea, about whom there has been much speculation of late. The most recent talk is that Italy boss Antonio Conte will be their coach next term but current interim boss Guus Hiddink is none the wiser.

    "You have heard more than me because that’s your job," he said. "I’m not involved in this and that's all you'll get from me. I’m in favour that when things are done, you make it transparent."

    He adds that going to a new country as a manager is exciting but it is important to get quickly into the culture of the club and country. A challenge for Conte perhaps?

    A brief update from Norwich...

    Manager Alex Neil says his side went on a warm-weather trip to refocus and relieve some pressure ahead of the meeting with league leaders Leicester.

    "They are effective and good at what they do, but we need to impose ourselves on the game. We're going there to get something," the Scot said.

    "We're above the relegation zone but we need to win games - that's the bottom line. We're going to go out and attack and play with freedom and that's our strength."

    Jurgen Klopp then turned his attention to the League Cup final. Has he thought about what it might be like to win a trophy in his first few months in charge?

    "Anything that you can imagine is possible, you can dream," he said. "I have some nice pictures in my mind. We will get chances and to use them will be the key. I have to make sure there's no misunderstanding between my mouth and the ears of the players."

    Jurgen Klopp has experienced a footballing rollercoaster since he took over as Liverpool manager.

    He's witnessed performances that range from the marvellous to the mediocre with more than a fair share of the mundane thrown in for good measure. But Sunday's Capital One Cup final with Manchester City offers a real opportunity for a tangible reward  within months of him replacing Brendan Rodgers.

    Liverpool terrorised Manuel Pellegrini's team when they met at the Etihad stadium earlier this season. Can they do so again?
