(Reuters) - Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has said he is more concerned with winning trophies than with attempting to keep all of his players happy.

Chelsea lead the Premier League with four games left and are in the final of the FA Cup in Conte's first season in charge, but the Italian's preference for stability has resulted in some established players being reduced to impact substitutes.
