Antonio Conte has denied Sean Dyche's claims that he would have been labelled a dinosaur had he implemented the Italian's methods.
The Burnley boss asserted that Conte was only donned a "genius" for his counter-attacking tactics with Italy at Euro 2016 and intense, physical preparation in the Blues' preseason because he was foreign.
But Conte insists that is not the case and that both tactical geniuses and footballing dinosaurs exist in many countries.
"There are dinosaurs and geniuses in all departments all over the world: in Italy, England, Argentina, Spain, all over the world," countered the Blues chief.
