Carlo Ancelotti believes Chelsea's vital Premier League win at Wolves was the perfect boost ahead of Wednesday's Champions League encounter with their former manager Jose Mourinho and his Inter Milan team.
After collecting just six points from their previous six away games, Ancelotti felt it was crucial to improve at Molineux on Saturday and take full advantage of Manchester United's defeat at Goodison Park.
Ancelotti was happy to let his players know United's result before the kickoff and they responded with a 2-0 win, secured by two Didier Drogba goals, that stretched their lead at the top of the Premier League to four points before taking on Mourinho in the San Siro.
"It will be a fantastic game and it is a very important game," Ancelotti said.
"Inter and Chelsea are very good teams and I am looking forward to playing the game. I will not play the game myself, but we are going there to play.
"I don't know whether we will have to be better than we were against Wolves. I do not know what is going to happen in the game."
