Ancelotti expects City challenge

CHELSEA boss Carlo Ancelotti didn’t quite return the compliment of his opposite number by indicating Man City would win the Premier League – but they will challenge for the title, he says.

“They are fantastic players, a very good squad. They can fight for the title,” he said.

Next up for Chelsea is a Champions League clash at home to Marseille before they take on Arsenal at Stamford Bridge and then travel to play Aston Villa at Villa Park, where they lost 2-1 last term.
