Chelsea boss Ancelotti to give nod to Turnbull

Ross Turnbull is set to start the season for Chelsea between the posts.

Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti hinted that Turnbull could be the preferred choice to stand in for Petr Cech at the start of the season.

He said: "I think that against Ajax we will play 45 minutes each for Turnbull and Hilario, and I think Turnbull will start the game.

"It is a pre-season match so we don't have too many targets, just to improve our condition and put the players in better condition for the start of the season."
