Florent Malouda scored in his third game in a row for Chelsea in this weekends win over Stoke City, and his boss Carlo Ancelotti thinks that the Frenchman has come back from the World Cup with a point to prove.

Ancelotti said: “He has started well and he is one of our best players right now. I think that he has a good motivation after the World Cup. He was angry. He wanted to improve on his poor performance in the World Cup and I think he is doing very well.

The Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti says that he would have had zero success last season if he hadn’t had Ray Wilkins around to act as his interpreter.

Ancelotti said: “One of the reasons I fit into the locker room was thanks to the fundamental role played by Ray Wilkins, my number two and my friend. It’s one thing to translate words – plenty of people can do that – but translating feelings is the gift of only a select few.

The Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has announced that the Blues new signing Ramires will not make his debut until next weekends game against Stoke City.

“Ramires came back this morning, he will train today, and will not be involved tomorrow.” Ancelotti said yesterday.”Next week he will be ready to play against Stoke and he will be involved in the match.

Carlo Ancelotti didn’t think that his Chelsea team did anything else other than a normal days work despite winning 6-0 in their opening Premier League game against West Brom, and he even praised the strikers for being active in the defence!

“Didier did a fantastic job,” said Ancelotti. “Not just because he scored but he worked for the team very hard, as did Anelka and Malouda. They all worked very hard defensively.

The Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho admitted that he was keen on buying Ashley Cole from Chelsea, but he says that he has accepted the response from Carlo Ancelotti that Cole is not for sale.

“We thought about him because he’s a good player who I enjoyed working with. But when a coach says ‘no’ it’s no, and we have to accept that,” Mourinho said. “Carlo Ancelotti was very, very clear … he killed the story saying, no money can buy Ashley Cole,”

The Community Shield is looming just a week away, and Carlo Ancelotti is not happy at all with the fitness of his team so close to the start of the season. Luckily Chelsea’s opening League games are not against the best teams so hopefully it will give the squad time to regain their fitness, but it looks like we can only expect a training match mentality against United on Sunday.

The Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is hardly going to be happy that his side have now lost all three pre-season games, but is sure that the players fitness and concentration levels are still not up to speed ahead of the new season.

“We are making a lot of mistakes in this moment.” said Ancelotti. “We know we made a mistake, now we have to show more character and more concentration.

The worst has happened. It is being reported this morning that Ashley Cole has spoken to Carlo Ancelotti, and told him that he wants to leave England to get away from the flak over his acrimonious, and very public, divorce from Cheryl Cole.

A “source” told Sport of the World this morning: “It was a very amicable meeting, but Ashley made it clear that because of his personal situation he feels it is in his best interests to leave the club.

The Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti knows that the team can’t rest on their laurels after winning the Double last year. The World Cup players have to pick themselves up and return immediately to winning ways again.

He said: “All my Musketeers, including Drogba, Malouda, Lampard and Terry, have played in a World Cup which has lowered their profile.

It has been widely reported that Chelsea were keen to make a £50m bid for the former World-Player-of-the-Year Kaka as it seemed he had fallen out of favour at Real Madrid. The incoming manager Jose Mourinho was believed to want to sell Kaka to raise the funds for him to bring in his own targets, but the Portugese manager has announced that he wants Kaka to stay at the Bernabeau, and he believes he can restore the confidence of the Brazilian star.
