Despite going back to the top of the Premier League title on Saturday afternoon, Carlo Ancelotti knows Chelsea Football Club still have a long way to go before being crowned champions.

A goal from Alex, a brace from Didier Drogba and a Florent Malouda strike gave the Blues a 4-1 win over West Ham United, to leapfrog Manchester United in pole position.

"There will be a long race,” Ancelotti told Sky Sports. "There are strong teams - Manchester United, Arsenal - so we have to maintain our confidence and we have to maintain our play.

"We want to play our best every game. I knew very well that in England there are very strong teams, but we have stayed in the top for eight months and we want to stay until the end of the season."
