"IF THEY DECIDE TO CHANGE, YOU WON'T SEE ME CRYING"

In his final press conference of our season yesterday, when you would expect coverage to be on the game itself, Carlo Ancelotti's comments about his future have become the focus of media attention yet again and once again, he has remained defiant.

He said:

"We will arrange a meeting to discuss our issues but I'm very quiet, very calm, and I just want to wait and see what the club have decided. I continue to have a fantastic relationship with Ron Gourlay and Bruce Buck. I had a meeting with Bruce Buck today with no problem. I'm not 'desperate' to keep this job. My desire is to stay here because I feel happy here but it's not my decision. I won't beg. I don't want to 'fight' to keep my job.

That's just my character – I don't know if it's a weakness or not. But the club have to judge me over the two years of my job. If they think that my job was good for this club, I will stay. If they think that it was not so good, I will have to go.

When I started my experience here in England, if someone had told me that we would win the FA Cup and the Premier League in the next two years, I would have been happy. This year was not so good, I know, but we can learn from this experience. If they decide to change, you won't see me crying. I will accept the decision and find another solution.

At a 'difficult' club, you are not able to do your job while you're there. Here, I have a lot of responsibility. I didn't have pressure in these two years, to put this player or that player in the team. I was very much in control and had my own ideas. They've supported me at every point, but that doesn't mean that, if they want to change… It's their decision.

I am proud of what I have done over the last two years. I have felt good, and I continue to feel good here. I love this atmosphere and the training ground. The people who are working around me are very honest and professional. I think, together, we did a good job."

People everywhere have given their opinions on Carlo and the situation we find ourselves talking about. I just want to say that no matter if you are a Carlo fan or if you are not, you must have some sympathy for the bloke to continue to work day in day out, reading constant speculation about his future, seeing that not once has the club come out and spoken about their manager which has made matters worse.

To step into each and every single interview or press conference knowing that even though you want to speak of the game and your team, you know that the same questions will be asked over and over again and you are expected to answer them despite having doing so time and time again.

The fact that he still smiles in public, still backs his players, is open and honest about things and doesn't shy away from that like Arsene Wenger for example is a credit to him. I personally feel that Carlo Ancelotti doesn't get the credit he deserves for having to deal with all that.

If this is to be Carlo Ancelotti's last game as our Chelsea Manager then it's important to remember how well has held himself, how he has acted and how he has keep his head down and kept working hard to turn things round at the club.

Maybe if he does part company with Chelsea, only then will people realise exactly what he has achieved at our club!.
