# Carlo Ancelotti dismisses Chelsea's title hopes but says victory over
|
|
Manchester United will restore confidence
|
|
|
|
## Carlo Ancelotti said Tuesday night's win against Manchester United would
|
|
restore the confidence of his Chelsea players but admitted that the gap to the
|
|
top of the Premier League remains too wide.

The 2-1 victory still leaves **[Chelsea][18]** 12 points behind **[Manchester
|
|
United][19]** with a game in hand and Ancelotti has already conceded that the
|
|
club cannot realistically hope to defend their title.
|
|
|
|
However, he believes that the performance sends a clear message that Chelsea
|
|
have recovered from their slump and are ready to finish in the top four and
|
|
challenge for the Champions League.
|
|
|
|
"We're still alive," said Ancelotti. "This was an important performance again
|
|
and we're ready to play at our best. They showed great spirit because it
|
|
wasn't easy coming back into that game.
|
|
|
|
"We put in a good performance in Copenhagen. We never had a problem with the
|
|
unity of the players. They are always together, in good and bad moments."
|
|
|
|
Of the 12-point gap to Manchester United, he said: "It's too far but this
|
|
victory is important for us and our confidence. We can't think about arriving
|
|
at the top at this moment."

Ancelotti also praised the performance of Ashley Cole, who has faced internal
|
|
disciplinary action for accidently shooting a work experience student with an
|
|
air rifle at the club's training ground.
|
|
|
|
"He played a good game," said Ancelotti. "He moved forward more in the second
|
|
half and was defensively very good."
|
|
|
|
Frank Lampard, who scored the winning penalty, added: "It's still a lot of
|
|
points to make up to Manchester United, but we just had to win the game, close
|
|
the gap and send out a signal that we're still fighting. We showed we have
|
|
some fight in us. It's a bit of a signal, especially after going 1-0 down."
