Conte made the right call. Genoa are absolutely rabid out there and we need a lot of our best players away at the Marassi. I'm tired of reading about the "rest players for EL" talk. There are 3 restdays between now and Thursday, and since we're playing in the evening on Thursday one can even look at it as 4 entire days of rest before the match vs. Fiorentina will be played.
These are top level, pro athletes, and they can cope with that. So chill out, geez.
