Chelsea boss Ancelotti calm despite matchwinner Kalou strop

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti was shrugged off the strop from matchwinner Salomon Kalou after victory over Tottenham. Kalou came off the bench to score the winner but appeared to show his displeasure at starting as a substitute, disappearing straight down the tunnel at full-time as his team-mates celebrated on the field.

Ancelotti said: "I am happy because he scored a goal and if he didn't celebrate because he was disappointed, I'm not interested.

"It's not a problem. I have to manage valuable professional players and I understand sometimes they are not happy to stay on the bench, but this is Chelsea.

"It is a top club, you have competition in the squad because a top club does not just have 11 players."
