Ancelotti wants English side

Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that he would like to have a team full of Englishmen at Chelsea as he begins his rebuilding process at Stamford Bridge.

Ancelotti said: "In this team, there are top players. I like their quality, I like their mental attitude. Above all, I like the English players. Terry, Lampard, Ashley Cole. I also like Didier, Petr, they all have a very good mentality.

"If you have these English players, it's much easier to build an identity for the club because of their fantastic mental attitude.

"I want to do my work with all my strength and this is my objective. I also want to build up the club over a long time because the club has very solid foundations.

"They have very good players, very good facilities and the staff are all very professional. There's the possibility to build and to stay here for many years.

"Milan has a history and a big tradition. Chelsea is a new club. I would like to create a new history and tradition for the club.''
