Antonio Conte has described Ray Wilkins as a "legend" for Chelsea but has urged his players not to get caught up in the emotion of the occasion when they host West Ham.
Former Chelsea player and coach Wilkins died on Wednesday, aged 61, with Chelsea set to honour his memory before the game on Sunday.
Conte described Wilkins' passing as "tragic" and a "big loss".
"It was tragic news for us," said the Italian. "You're talking about a really good person. I was lucky to know him, speak with him many times. He was a legend for this club and an ambassador for football.
