Chelsea coach Antonio Conte has stated that he is not thinking about being sacked but focuses on the Blues match against West Bromwich Albion.
The London club are currently facing hard times with an unusual streak of two wins in ten matches across all competitions.
Chelsea were comfortably humbled by Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge by a 3-0 goal margin and disgraced by Watford by 4-1 at Vicarage Road.

Speaking ahead of a week 26 match with West Brom, Conte insisted he is not for one second, thinking about leaving the club.
“I am not thinking for only one moment the possibility of going away from this club.
“My commitment and the players are totally for this club.
“A lot of time in football the manager and the coach depends on the result.
“At the moment we are having a poor result. For this reason we have to pay great attention,” he said.
Reports in recent weeks have been linking Luis Enrique to become Conte’s successor should the Italian coach be sacked.

Conte has reportedly been told that the Blues should not drop out of the top-four zone or would be told to leave the club.
Chelsea have 50 points and are placed fourth on the log but still have an outside chance of making through to next season’s Champions League.
Alan Pardew’s men will be visiting Stamford Bridge on Monday night as Conte will be hoping the same incident against Bournemouth does not occur.
