Carlo starts title mind games

CHELSEA boss Carlo Ancelotti yesterday cranked up the pressure on Manchester United and Arsenal by insisting neither of them could afford to make another mistake this season.

In what some might construe as the beginning of the managerial mind games for the Barclays Premier League run-in, Ancelotti reiterated his own side needed to win their nine remaining matches to stand any chance of completing one of the great title comebacks.

But the Italian also claimed any further mistakes by United and Arsenal would see the top two pay the ultimate price and miss out on the championship.
