Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew has praised Chelsea boss Antonio Conte after the Italian guided the Blues to 10 successive victories in the Premier League.
Chelsea have opened up a six-point gap at the top of the standings after winning each of their matches since the start of October, and ahead of their visit to Selhurst Park on Saturday, Pardew claims that their London neighbours "look unbeatable".
The 55-year-old told reporters: "Coming from Serie A, it's a different type of football. Conte's got to grips with the Premier League.
"He's been helped by his players having history in the Premier League, but he's done a fantastic job. They look unbeatable at the moment.
"His man management [has been good]. Hazard and Costa are a different proposition to last year and they'll admit that. Fabregas too."
During the same period, Palace have recorded just five points from a possible 30 and suffered seven defeats.
