With Chelsea being knocked out of the Champions League once again, Ancelotti can be forgiven to feel slightly paranoid.
Roman Ambramhovic wants the CL Title and doesn’t mind how many P45’s he gives out on his way to achieving it. If Chelsea can persuade/buy out the Turkish FA, we may see Guus Hiddink back at The Bridge in a Directors role, and Marco van Basten taking charge as Head Coach.
This two tier system is tried and tested at some of the biggest clubs in the world, most evidently at Barcelona, but has anyone told Roman that it’s not an over-night achievement? Jose Mourinho guided The Blues to back-to-back Premier League titles in his first two seasons, but was shown the door due to pressure buys (Shevchenko) and not being able to secure a Champions League winners medal, so even though Carlo Ancelotti is only the second non-Englishman to win the double, the pressure is still on to reach the promised land of European Champions.
