Chelsea played well, finally, in the first leg of their Champions League tie against Copenhagen and got two away goals out of Nicolas Anelka. Still, Carlo Ancelotti feels compelled to remind you that a certain match against a certain English club in a certain town formerly known as Constantinople keeps him from feeling overly confident about the situation.
From the Telegraph:
Asked whether he now felt the tie against Copenhagen was over, Ancelotti issued a reminder of that Champions League final when he was coach of AC Milan and lost to Liverpool in 2005. “Don’t forget I lost a Champions League final when I was leading 3-0."
While that night in Istanbul is the subject of stage plays in Liverpool, it is no doubt still the fuel to endless night terrors for Carlo. In his memoir, he described it as "six minutes of blackout," "a pneumatic void," and "a perfect machine in total breakdown.'' So his continued willingness to mention it in public shows this is clearly an event in his life that he has failed to repress along with any and all experiences at Silvio Berlusconi's bunga bunga parties.
Anyway, here are several other recent photographs of Carletto that made me smile...
