CHELSEA fans believe Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti deserves to be in their starting line-up more than some of their stars.
Ancelotti led Real to an easy 2-0 victory over the Blues in their Champions League quarter-final clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The Italian tactician watched Karim Benzema and Marco Asensio fire Los Blancos at a position of strength ahead of next week's second-leg at Stamford Bridge.
But fans watching from home also got to see some skill from the 63-year-old head coach, who dazzled them with a stunning keepy-uppy masterclass.
Ancelotti got a magnificent touch as the ball flew out for a free throw with his swanky leather shoes.
The ex-Bayern Munich boss then put together four kip-ups like they were nothing with his left hand in the pocket of his expensive suit.

Another posted: "Super sub appearance from Don Carlo today!"
A third commented: "At the age of 63 Carlo Ancelotti is still a better footballer than any Chelsea player."
