The Blues have been unstoppable domestically this term but there are a number of lessons their coach must learn if they are to succeed in Europe
Chelsea and Antonio Conte are obliterating the Premier League. Nine points clear in February with 19 wins, 51 goals scored and just 17 conceded from 24 games, it would take a monumental collapse for the Blues to fail to lift the title in May.
Indeed, as the Champions League returns next week, many Chelsea fans will already be looking ahead to next season and dreaming of 2012 all over again.
However, for all his undoubted brilliance as a manager – and this is a man who has put the likes of Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho and Jurgen Klopp to shame during his debut campaign in English football - Conte still has a lot to prove on the European club stage.
