Chelsea boss Ancelotti: Sturridge must work harder

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti is demanding more from Danny Sturridge.

The young striker gets the nod along with a string of youngsters and reserves in tonight's Carling Cup-tie with Newcastle.

But despite Sturridge's first Euro goal for the club on his Champions League debut last week, Ancelotti has demanded improvement.

He said: "He played an important game on Wednesday and scored but he could do better. I expected more of him on Wednesday.

"He has fantastic ability and I'd like to see these skills and ability more in a game."
