Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has defended his low-key touchline style.

Ancelotti insists he'll never be a ranter or raver on the sidelines during games.

"I was a player for a lot of years and when my coach spoke to me during games it was very difficult to listen or change something," reasoned Ancelotti.

"This is my style, my behaviour. I prefer to give information to my players before the game, in training and at half-time. I know other coaches shout or move, but this is a particular style for each person. I don't think it's necessary to shout because the players don't listen. It's very difficult to have a communication with them."
