Fans want Jose after Carlo KO

I'LL BE OFF, THEN ... Carlo Ancelotti was sacked 10 minutes after his side's defeat yesterday
CHELSEA sacked boss Carlo Ancelotti last night - and Blues fans immediately demanded the return of Jose Mourinho.
Ancelotti went just 10 minutes after the runners-up ended their league season with a 1-0 defeat at Everton.
After news broke, radio phone-in shows were swamped with fans calling for the second coming of the Special One.
That would take a personal call to Real Madrid coach Mourinho from Blues owner Roman Abramovich to make up for the way Jose was treated before he quit the club in 2007.
Last night the bookmakers were making Mourinho's old No 2 and current Porto boss Andre Villas-Boas favourite for the Stamford Bridge hotseat.
In a statement Chelsea said: "The owner and board would like to thank Carlo for his contribution, which included winning the Double for the first time in the club's history.
"However, this season's performances have fallen short of expectations and the club feels the time is right to make this change."
