Carlo Ancelotti dismisses http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097 claim
Carlo Ancelotti the manager of Chelsea has dismissed claims of Frank Lampard that the dressing room at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 feels like the last few days of Luiz Felip Scolari’s reign. The Brazilian was let got in 2009 when Chelsea went through a lean patch, and once
again the Blues are going through a tough time in fact this is the worst run for them for last decade and a half.
Ancelotti was asked what he thinks of the remarks made by Lampard, and the Italian laughed it off and said that statements like that do not mean anything.
He added that he was not there when Chelsea went through problems under Scolari, but at present Ancelotti said that his team has the ability to rise again. Former AC Milan coach said that his players support him and he has all the faith in them. He went
on to say that things may have been similar at the time, but knows that his team is fully behind him.
The Chelsea boss has been under the hammer following some disappointing performances by his team; the Blues started the season in top form and blew almost everything that came their way. However lately things have changed dramatically, they have managed
to win just one game in their last 8.
Chelsea did manage to run all over Ipswich and beat them 7-0 in FA Cup, but still it’s their Premier League form that is the reason for worry for their fans. Ancelotti said that he recently talked to the club owner Roman Abramovich, and he has offered him
all his support. He added that the Russian will also be coming to their next game.
Ancelotti admitted that the club owner was not totally pleased with the way things have been going, but added that despite that Abramovich did tell him that he should not worry about things like the comments made by Frank Lampard.
"I think it's not a big problem if the players are not happy," he explained. "I think the only reason they are not happy sometimes is that we didn't get the right results. This is the only reason.
"I think the players, the team, lost some confidence in their football, the football that we played very well last year.
Chelsea boss admitted that the big win against Ipswich town did change the mood in the team, but the whole squad is under no illusion that Premier League remains their prime target.
He went on to say that the team has been working hard on the training pitch, and results would start to show on the pitch very soon.
Earlier Chelsea’s midfielder Frank Lampard had made claims that the series of defeats at the club, has dampened the mood and morale of the team. He added that it reminded him of the days when Scolari was given the axe and even though he admires Ancelotti
but he was worried for his job.
Carlo Ancelotti joined the club in 2009, and in his very first full season guided his team to the double of English Premier League and FA Cup. It had looked like a match made in heaven, and many thought he was even better then the Special One Jose Mourinho.
However the recent bad run has turned things around for him completely, now it’s up to the former Champions League winning manager to show his pedigree and turn it around the right way for his team.
