Title: Ancelotti for Chelsea
Post by: boldie on June 01, 2009, 07:07:08 PM
Why is he soo highly rated? He's done nothing in years. I guess at least the older players will be happy he's there now as they can expect to stay at the club until they're 40.

2 European cups..... 2 league titles, AC only lost out to The Special one this season. If we hold on to Anelka and Drogba gives a sh** then I am overally confident we'll take the league next season, although im still pretty sure i'll never see us lift the Champions league in my lifetime! Hold on to the glory of the cup winners cup!

AC Milan won the Champs league in 2007!

AC Milan won the Champs league in 2007!

With a team that was far from the best.

And they haven't done a thing in the league. It's very nice to want to win the CL with Chelsea but surely the national title is still the main aim of every club?
Ancelotti couldn't even come close to winning the title in the last few years and he has done nothing to improve the team.


I would be quite concerned about whom he brings to Chelsea, if anyone, and the sort of footie he will play. (Didn't Mourinho get the sack for playing boring footie?..Didn't Grant?)

Ancelotti won't last 2 seasons.

I can quite safely say that Chelsea's priority is CL's over PL

In 2007 Milan were awesome in Europe. I'd find it difficult to argue against them being the best side in it and they beat us in the final!

Yeah it is a bit of an odd signing. Tactically he's very good but his style is not going to make Abramovich happy. But who else is out there who they haven't pissed off already or isn't at a side where they're happy?

Unlike Utd, Real & Barca I dont believe Chelsea have the capacity to just "get" anyone they want. This appointment pretty much shows that. Butif it wins them the Champions League I'm sure they wont care.

It pains me to say it but Inter are the best Italian team atm, and its not close.

As a Chelsea fan I'm just not keen at all on an Italian manager at the bridge.

Should've gone for Moyes

Should've gone for Moyes

Would Zola be good enough, given what he's done to transform West Ham this season?

It would stink of Keegan/Shearer and Newcastle Utd or Hoddle and Tottenham and maybe many more "messiahs", but Zola loves attacking football and thats what Abramovich wants.

Zola hasn't proved himself yet (As he himself said). I think he's doing the smart thing by staying put for now and showing everyone that he is not just a one season wonder.

Agree - the corruption scandal made that league worse than it already was. Inter aren't even in the top 6 European sides.

Article written on 30th May, before Ancelotti was even confirmed as manager.

Maybe an idea to find a more reliable source like The Daily Sport for example.

Because it was a shock that Ancelotti came to Chelsea?

Yeah but i wouldn't imagine that he was lining up deals on May30th, to swap a player that he hasn't even seen in training.
