Dynamo Kiev star Andriy Shevchenko has no doubts that Carlo Ancelotti will be a long-term success at Chelsea.

Former Blues striker Sheva enjoyed a great relationship with Ancelotti at AC Milan.

“He’ll do fantastically,” Shevchenko told the Sunday Times. “He’s a brilliant coach and a good man.”

Those last words pinpoint Ancelotti’s feelgood factor. Michael Ballack said: “You can’t really describe it. You like people or you don’t and I — I think everyone — likes Ancelotti.”

Petr Cech said: “He brings calmness to all the players and creates a good atmosphere.”

John Terry added: “Carlo is a modern-day manager who understands what modern-day players feel.”

So far so good... let us not get complacent eh? I like Ancelotti but I also liked Jose. For me Guus was the guy who turned things around after Grant and Scholari and if Carlos can continue in his footsteps and beyond then as long as it is benifiting the club, that is fine by me!
