Ancelotti: I want Chelsea to match AC Milan glory
Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti says he wants to replicate the success of AC Milan at Stamford Bridge.
The proud Italian is ready to extend his empire across the whole of Europe, after quelling the troublesome Gallic hordes of Arsenal at the weekend.
He explained: "Caesar's phrase comes to mind when I think of what has happened this season. I have come to England, seen what it is like and, before I leave, I want to conquer the FA Cup, the Premier League and the Champions League.
"I have not lost my sense of humour since coming here. In England it rains every day but still people sometimes tell me it is a beautiful day. That's when I tell them about Julius Caesar, who spent so much time in Britain yet, in the end, opted to move back to the Amalfi coast in Italy.
"But I am not in any hurry to leave. The competition here is very strong and it is not going to be easy. I would compare Manchester United with Inter Milan, Arsenal with Roma and Manchester City with Fiorentina.
"But I want to pair Chelsea with my old club, AC Milan. If we can match some of Milan's past achievements, that would not be at all bad."
