One of the characteristics of Ancelotti's Milan was that the team was starting slow and, without exception, they were hitting their top form around March/April so come the end of the season, when the others were getting slower and more tired, his players had the energy to push with 100%.

In an article I read few years ago it was said that it's all about the summer preparations and his training regime was explained well there.

Afterall, follow Milan's serie A seasons and especially the CL and you'll see what i'm talking about.

So I wonder if he did the same in Chelsea. If we assume that he started slower and we still have in mind that his team is leading the EPL since the start, then what can we expect from Chelsea after a month or two?

Chelsea's last 3 away games are against United, Tottenham and Liverpool, if by the last 6 rounds of the season Chelsea aren't ahead of Man United/Arsenal by +3 points, Chelsea most likely will not win the league. So Chelsea fans better hope you're right about Chelsea and they do start hitting form soon, because they really need to establish a gap between themselves and the others.


Gudjohnsen can play midfield also. Decent signing actually for them. Tottenham are starting to push for CL spot seriously these days.
Only as an advanced midfielder, in Tottenham's straight 4-4-2, playing in CM wouldn't suit him as he would be playing way too deep for his liking.

Ferguson seems to be the same way.

Conventional thinking is that if Man Utd are within about six points of the top at Xmas, the other teams had better watch out, because they usually finish strongly.

Should be interesting.

Apparently John Terry had an affair with his teammate Wayne Bridges wife !! He got her pregnant and she had an abortion. it's going to be front page everywhere but they doubt they will be able to print names as its getting a Court Injunction!!" Way to go JT.

Well, since she's Wayne Bridges wife, no problems at Chelsea. He's a Man city player right now.

This is what you get from marrying a french whore :sergio:

Apperantly JT had an affair with her when Bridge was still a player Chelsea. That's really bad, the captain of the team screwing his teammate girlfriend/wife. This might cause some trust issues among the chelsea/england national team players I think.
