Ancelotti twists Blues’ revenge notions

CHELSEA manager Carlo Ancelotti has warned his players that only by winning the Champions League outright will they have gained revenge for their 2008 final defeat to Manchester United.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League will see another all-Premier League encounter, and one that might even be eclipsed in terms of glamour by Tottenham coming up against Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid.

For Ancelotti the stakes could not be higher as Chelsea continue the search for their first Champions League trophy and he believes focusing on that defeat in Moscow three years ago could prove a distraction.
