Gerrard feeling Blue

STEVEN GERRARD reckons new Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti will have an instant impact on the Premier League, though he's not exactly celebrating the appointment.

The Liverpool captain said: "It's good for Chelsea but I'm not too sure it's good for Liverpool.

"He's a fantastic manager.

"We've played two Champions League finals against him. We won one on a fantastic night in Istanbul but he was spot on tactically in the second game.

"Chelsea have appointed a very good manager. Top coaches adapt to whatever league they are coaching in.

"When you look around the world there's many good managers and he's one of the best."

Asked about the prospect of Ancelotti going head to head again with Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez, Gerrard added: "It's going to make the Premier League even more exciting.

"I'm sure that Rafa and Ancelotti are looking forward to testing themselves against each other again."
