Carlo Taunts Mourinho

Carlo Ancelotti has stoked the flames ahead of Chelsea clash with Inter Milan claiming the whole of Italy want to see Jose Mourinho lose.

Chelsea travel to Italy for Wednesday's Champions League clash with Inter with tensions resurfacing between Ancelotti and Mourinho.

The pair have endured a strained relationship during their time against each other in Italy and Ancelotti's taunts will add further fuel to the fire.

Mourinho has found himself unpopular among other Serie A coaches and also Italian football's authorities because of his outspoken behaviour and for that reason Ancelotti claims every neutral in Italy will be hoping his Chelsea side can beat Mourinho's Inter.

Ancelotti told the Italian newspaper Il Giornale that thanks to Mourinho's behaviour "the whole of Italy, Inter fans excluded, will be supporting Chelsea" tomorrow night.

Ancelotti also hit out at Mourinho for dismissing the achievements of his successors at Chelsea following the Portuguese's departure from Stamford Bridge.

"It's true that after him (Mourinho) nobody has won anything for Chelsea, although some bloke called Grant didn't do so bad and came close with the Champions League final," added Ancelotti.

"He is good at charging up the atmosphere and the team, but it's ground I would never go on."
