SOME OF THE ANCELOTTI PRE MATCH BURNLEY P/C
We want to stay attached to the top of the table so it will be important to have a result tomorrow
I think, in the end, it will be important to take care of the health and welfare of the players
Every game is a test to see how we are & tomorrow I hope we can be better on this aspect
They are better now compared to the start of the season, we know what kind of game to expect.
The supporters are a really important part of this environment, without the supporters it looks like a different sport.
We are where we want to be in this moment.
We have the quality in the squad to play with three centre backs because we have a lot of good centre-backs
We have to consider for this player to travel around the world for international football will not be easy.
He will have time in the next game because we have a lot of games.
Carlo on injuries
No [new concerns]. Apart from Coleman and Digne, all the players are available. Coleman is training individuallyCarlo On performances
Of course the result was not good against Leeds, but it was an open game.We want to stay attached to the top of the table so it will be important to have a result tomorrow
Carlo On five subs
I'm not surprised [it didn't come up in meeting], because there is discussion about this.I think, in the end, it will be important to take care of the health and welfare of the players
January transfer window plans
We are not focused there. We have eight games in one month. We are focused there. Not on JanuaryCarlo On finding balance
We are good offensively, we had problems defensively.Every game is a test to see how we are & tomorrow I hope we can be better on this aspect
On expectations against Burnley
I think it will be the same game [as first in charge]. Burnley didn’t change its identity, it’s a strong one and a strong organisation.They are better now compared to the start of the season, we know what kind of game to expect.
Carlo On fans returning
It's really good news. Football without fans is not the football we want to play or to watch.The supporters are a really important part of this environment, without the supporters it looks like a different sport.
Carlo On expectations after almost a year
This season, there is a lot of competition in front. We are still in front, we want to stay attached and prepare well for the second part of the season.We are where we want to be in this moment.
Carlo On defensive system
I think it's an emergency, without two important players like Coleman and Digne. It is only for this reason.We have the quality in the squad to play with three centre backs because we have a lot of good centre-backs
Carlo On James form
He is in a good condition. He had a problem as everyone knows, but this week he trained well and he is back.We have to consider for this player to travel around the world for international football will not be easy.
Carlo On Michael Keane
We were talking about consistency, he had it this year. He's reached a good level and has been able to keep that level with good performances.Carlo On Richarlison
He was suspended for three games and we suffered without him. He did well in the last two games I think, and was really important against Fulham. He is backCarlo On midfielders as wing backs and Nkounkou
Nkounkou was not in the squad because I had 11 players, I put Iwobi on the left. He's still young, he needs more experience, he needs to work more.He will have time in the next game because we have a lot of games.
Carlo On Tosun
Cenk is doing really well, his recovery was not simple but good. His condition is improving, the fact that we have a lot of games in December I think he's going to find space to play. I think he is really good and efficient in the box and I like his quality.Toffeelover

Spot on, could have been at least on the bench as a sub instead of a couple of the other cronies.

I see nothing wrong with wanting him out. He’s been here a year and we’ve made no improvement and he’s overseen a couple of the most embarrassing performances I have ever witnessed and that is saying something.
If he gets us Europe or wins us a cup, then by all means he will deserve another season but at this point in time I find it hard to believe he will achieve anything close to that.
"We have a big squad, we all know that a bench of Delph, Gylfi, Gomes and Bernard are too good to leave out for our substitute full-back."

So why don’t you just wait to see what happens rather than jumping the gun after a quarter of the season then? It’s absolutely fine to question decisions he’s making, I’ve been doing that myself, but what on earth do you gain by calling for his head right now?
GwladysBlue
Player Valuation: £70m
Some absolute bollocks being talked there.
‘We are where we want to be’ 8th? Didn’t that see the past two managers sacked?

Well technically no, Silva was sacked because we were 18th.

Iwobi is not a left sided player, for that last game Carlo made a right cockup with team selection.
GwladysBlue
Player Valuation: £70m
We all know what happens.
Also, that comment was posted within an hour or so of a very poor performance and another home defeat.
I have huge concerns about Ancelotti and I genuinely am annoyed by it because I thought he would be the one to finally raise the level.
His decision making has been atrocious and the team look ridiculously unfit.

We wouldn’t have finished 18th.

Not quite, poor performances and no winning.
