Chelsea boss Antonio Conte reveals plan to stop Leicester's Jamie Vardy

The FA Cup is now Chelsea's only chance of silverware this term after they were dumped out of the Champions League by Barcelona this week.

Leicester stand in their way in Sunday's quarter-final.

And Foxes forward Jamie Vardy is in fine form ahead of the clash at the King Power stadium.

The England international has found the net six times in his last eight outings.

And Conte knows his side have to be alert to Vardy if they want to progress.

"The special plans is to try to defend well," he told reporters.

"We know about Vardy and his characteristic, he is a clever player and is good to attack the space and find the right time to do this."

But it is not just Vardy that the Blues boss is worried about.

"I think that we are talking about a team that two years ago won the title," he added.

"In the squad there are many players with good qualities, talented players.

"They want to fight a lot and in the game at home we suffered a lot, they run a lot and have dangerous players.

"We must pay great attention."

Chelsea reached the final of the competition last season, before losing 2-1 to Arsenal.

Meanwhile, Leicester boss Claude Puel reached the League Cup final last season while in charge of Southampton.
