Defiant Carlo Ancelotti targets Chelsea title success
'I have two more years of contract and I have no problem confirming this,' he said. Ancelotti has come under particular pressure following a week that has seen Chelsea eliminated from the Champions League and lose their position at the top of the Premier League, but he is adamant that his team can recover the momentum of earlier this season.[LNB]'We're still involved in the Premier League and the FA Cup,' he said. 'We have less opportunity to win after last week because we lost two points at Blackburn, but we can have a chance again to win this title and we will do everything we can to win this title. It's very important for us. It's not the time now to 'do the bill' now. We can do the bill at the end of the season.[LNB]'I am optimistic. I want to believe we can win the championship and I want to stay focused on my job and give my players knowledge to win their next games.[LNB]'I like statistics and I think that, in the past, with 86 points every team has won the title. I think that we need to get 86 points to win.' [LNB]Ancelotti also remains hopeful on the contract of Joe Cole, while Petr Cech will return to the team to face Portsmouth tomorrow.[LNB]'Joe Cole will be here next season because the player wants to stay here and the club wants to keep him in the squad,' he said. 'There is no news about this. There is a time to speak about his contract. I have passed this to the club. I gave my technical opinion about this player, and nothing else. [LNB]'I think he's showing a pleasure to stay and play for this club. He's doing a very good job, he's very professional and he has a very good relationship with his other team-mates.[LNB]'It's a very important moment for him and the other players to show his quality to stay in the squad for the World Cup with England. He wants to play, I know that, and he's doing everything he can in training to show me his quality. Sometimes he's played and sometimes he's stayed out, but that's what happens at the big teams.'
