"Fernando Torres and Didier Drogba played well overall, they were dangerous and I think they played a good game."


Contrary to Ancelotti's opinion, Torres and Drogba appeared on different wavelengths for vast parts of this contest. "He (Torres) will improve and score. I think that they played well as a good combination. We are happy with his performance and he will score. It is not a problem," he added.

Lampard too preferred to downplay title talk.

"I don't know if we've been given a second chance in the title race," said Lampard, whose absence through injury this season has affected Chelsea's form. "It's too early to say and we're still behind," he added.
