Only two managers have recorded a better points average than him in the Premier League.
And he's got the best win percentage as Chelsea manager in all competitions.
But, despite winning the FA Cup last season - beating Manchester United in the final, Chelsea have ditched Conte ahead of the new campaign.

And a mere few lines in the message issued by the club about his exit does not to the Italian boss justice.
"During Antonio's time at the club, we won our sixth league title and eighth FA Cup. In the title winning season, the club set a then-record 30 wins in a 38-game Premier League season, as well as a club-record 13 consecutive league victories," the statement reads.
"We wish Antonio every success in his future career."
Reports suggest Chelsea will draft in Maurizio Sarri to fill the managerial void.
