Ancelotti denies quit talk
Carlo Ancelotti insists he remains in charge of Chelsea and has denied he ever considered his position as coach over the weekend.
Chelsea slumped to their third defeat in four games with a 1-0 reverse at Birmingham on Saturday and the rumour mill went into overdrive when Ancelotti was said to have offered his resignation to the club.
Ancelotti was also alleged to have rang the League Managers Association (LMA) about resigning.
But the Italian cleared the air during the club's press conference ahead of their Champions League game against Group F whipping boys MSK Zilina.
"I don't know if it's enough to clarify my position today to close these rumours and speculation," said Ancelotti. "These rumours are totally untrue. I don't know why they came out. I didn't speak with the LMA.
"They called me when I was at home, quiet, to find out what was happening. These rumours are totally untrue. I have my contract until 2012, here, in this club. I've said a lot of times that I'd like to stay here."
