Antonio Conte has admitted that he is delighted to have hit the ground running after winning all four of his opening games as Chelsea manager.
The Blues have taken nine points from a possible nine in the Premier League, including a comfortable 3-0 win over Burnley on Saturday, while also seeing off Bristol Rovers in the EFL Cup.
Conte has looked to instil new ideas at Stamford Bridge since being brought in by owner Roman Abramovich, but says that winning games is the most important factor when taking over at a new club.
"To start the season with three wins and a win in the cup is good for all, for the confidence of the players and the fans," he told the Blues' official website. "When we start in this way you can work better, and also the players can trust the work more.
"Usually when a new manager arrives his brings his football methodology and new ideas. You can have good ideas but it's important to have good results to increase the players' confidence in you."
Chelsea are back in action in two weeks' time when facing Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium.
