Bolton manager Gary Megson believes Carlo Ancelotti can lead Chelsea to the Barclays Premier League title this season.[LNB] The Italian has barely put a foot wrong since his arrival from AC Milan during the summer and Megson for one has been impressed with what he has seen.[LNB] Asked whether he thought Ancelotti was equipped to make Chelsea champions in his first year in charge, Megson said: "I do - so far we are a quarter of the way through the season and they are looking very strong defensively, they are scoring goals and they have a huge squad of talented players."[LNB] He added: "The manager himself has been really impressive. He has come in and he hasn't changed a huge amount other than the formation a little bit. [LNB] "But I think the thing that is most impressive about him is the way he has conducted himself. [LNB] "He is probably the most decorated manager in terms of when he was a player and he has won the European Cup with the same team (Milan), yet he's not shouting from the rooftops about how wonderful he is. [LNB] "He doesn't seem to have an opinion on absolutely everything, and there are a few in the Premier League who have. I think he's a real class act and good luck to him."
