Chelsea performance, not Man U progress is what matters to Carlo Ancelotti

LONDON - Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has said that he is not worried about Premier League title competition from defending champions Manchester United but reckons that it’s Chelsea’s performance that matters most to him.

After Chelsea’s 3-0 win against Tottenham at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, which was a record 11th straight win for the club, they are now three points clear at the top of the Premier League.

“I saw the United game on TV, but all I am interested in is that Chelsea play well and win,” The Sun quoted Ancelotti, as saying.

“I’m not worried about our title opponents dropping points. I don’t know who the opponents are,” he added.

The 50-year-old further said that he or his club were not looking for any records, but were more focused on winning their next match.

“We are not thinking about records, only about winning our next match,” Ancelotti said.

Ancelotti was also worried about the Blues’ prolific scorer Didier Drogba, who had a precautionary scan on a calf injury that he suffered during the match against Tottenham.

“We hope it is only cramp,” he added. (ANI)
