Survival Sunday also claims Carlo

SURVIVAL Sunday meant something entirely different to those at Goodison Park yesterday. Well, at least it did to Carlo Ancelotti.

While the rest of the Premier League mused and watched the season denouement through their fingers, Everton and Chelsea had little to play for even if this game was conducted in the knowledge that it was probably Ancelotti’s last as Chelsea manager.

The scale of Roman Abramovich’s ambition at Stamford Bridge means that a season with no trophies means a manager has to go. There are few ifs and buts in Roman’s world.
