Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti was delighted with matchwinner Didier Drogba after their last-gasp victory over Hull City.

"I think last season he had a problem with his body and now he is well," said Ancelotti.

"He is important for us and I am very happy he scored two goals. He has a lot of motivation now."

Chelsea looked tired as the second half wore on but Ancelotti would not criticise England coach Fabio Capello for using Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard and John Terry for the full 90 minutes against Holland in midweek.

"We have to consider that a lot players played 90 minutes with their national team and did not rest totally," said Ancelotti.

"I didn't speak with Capello. I want, if it is possible, to help his work and give England players in good condition. I am not coach of England, they have a very good coach.

"Ashley, John and Frank are in very good condition, it was no problem for them to play 90 minutes."
