Ancelotti's got it spot on. Must do better away!.

Carlo Ancelotti has spoken ahead of tomorrow's game and said:

"In the last two games away we didn't score, against Man City and Aston Villa, We had a good away game in the Champions League against Spartak Moscow. It's strange not to score in two games consecutively away. We had a fantastic performance against Wigan when we won 6-0, but we have to do better away.

Our philosophy is to play the best football we can, so when we don't play well I think it's not a criticism to say this. It is objective, and we want to play at our best in every game.

I think now we are five points clear, and it's important to maintain this gap. Man City, Man United and Arsenal are interested in our results and they would like that we lose some points against Blackburn. This is normal and I think for this reason it's an important game - if we are able to win this game we can improve our confidence and give disappointment to the other teams.

We are five points clear, we started well in this part of the season, and I think we can play better, because we played very well some parts of some games but not continuously, We didn't play 90 minutes how we want and it's the time to improve our play and play with more intensity on the game.

Tomorrow will be a good test for this reason because we have to play a physical game - we have to play with intensity because it won't be easy to play against Blackburn away, but we want to do better compared to last season."

Once again you have to admit Carlo has got it spot on. We all know that apart from the start to our season, in recent games we have gone off the boil after getting ahead in games when the game appeared to be over rather than to go in for the kill like the early part of the season.

Carlo want's Chelsea to do better away and what better place to start than Blackburn tomorrow!
