Today is the sixth anniversary of when Carlo Ancelotti took over as Coach of Milan and the 48-year-old hopes to stay for another six years.

The ex-Parma tactician was named as the new Milan boss on November 5, 2001, and he has since gone on to win two Champions League titles and a Scudetto, among other trophies. 

His long-period in charge goes against the norm in Italy, where coaches very rarely stay at one club for longer than four or five years. 

“I did not think it would be possible to remain on the Milan bench for so long,” admitted Ancelotti. “However I am ready to remain here for another six years.” 

The current season has not been an easy one for Milan, and they currently sit in ninth position in Serie A, having still failed to win at home in the league this campaign. 

“Unfortunately we have lost a lot of points at home,” said Carletto. 

“Fourth place does seem far away from us, however there is still plenty of time to recover.” 

Tomorrow the Rossoneri travel to the Ukraine for a tricky Champions League match with Shakhtar Donetsk, and Ancelotti knows it will be far from straightforward. 

“To win there is not impossible, even if we know it is not going to be easy. However Ronaldo has now returned and this is very positive for us,” he concluded.

None of that Latin hooey at me! Or my fish doll will bite! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I won't mind (or complain) if Carletto stays; I just think it'd be a win-win situation all round if he went to the Azzurri and someone new came in. [This is because I think the biggest problem the team's got right now is motivation more than anything. They need someone new in there to motivate them.]
