New Chelsea boss Ancelotti believes he can be special

New Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti insists he can be as popular as former boss Jose Mourinho.

The Italian is the fourth manager in the Stamford Bridge hot seat since Mourinho left in September 2007 having won every domestic competition.

Only the Champions League crown eluded the 'Special One' during his successful spell at Chelsea.

Since then Avram Grant, Luiz Felipe Scolari, Ray Wilkins and Guus Hiddink have all taken turns in charge.

Now Ancelotti is determined to become as popular and as successful as Mourinho and is not afraid of the challenge ahead.

"I think Mourinho is a great coach because he won a lot of trophies but it's not a war between Mourinho and me," said Ancelotti.

"It's normal that he is popular in Chelsea because he won the Premier League but I also want to win it. I also want to be popular with the fans.

"I'm not sure if the period of time here will be long or short but I want the people to remember me."
