Welcome Carlo Ancelotti
Welcome
By Since66
June 1 2009
The worst kept secret in football has been revealed as Chelsea Football Club announced this morning that Carlo Ancelotti is Chelsea's new coach. Ancelotti has got a three year deal and his contract begins on 1st July 2009.
Chelsea TV have already interviewed Ancelotti and the interview will be shown tonight at 5pm. I have had a sneak preview of the interview and Ancelotti's English isn't that bad, in fact, despite reservations about his grasp of the English language from all sorts, his English is probably better than mine.
Sources say that Ancelotti agreed to become Chelsea coach two months ago and obviously many hours of hard work have gone on behind the scenes to secure his services and get AC Milan to agree to terminate his contract a year early.
Welcome Carlo Ancelotti

Hope his English is coming in well.
The premier league is very different to Serie A so he´ll have to be able to adapt tactics when necessary.
Be interesting to see what happens.

Actually, his first interview in English is on the Chelsea site - and it´s not as bad as I thought it would be:

Just watched Carlo in his first interview - apart from a couple of mistakes with his words - he did alrite.
Come August he should be 100% better
Don't Gamble, Bet Risk Free

Hi again its WCW in my normal guise lol. Actually thought Hiddink was a breath of fresh air. His interviews were always intresting. Top coach imo.

(This bloke above should make up his mind - a week ago it was Marko Arnautovic using his computer).
