Carlo Ancelotti has won the Barclays Manager of the Month award for August after his side made a flying start in defence of the league title, scoring 14 goals without reply as they took maximum points from the three matches.
Ancelotti was the only manager to see his team win all three of their games in August and this is the second time he has won the award. In November last season, the Blues also recorded three wins and three clean sheets and were top of the Barclays Premier League.
'I enjoy getting started on the Premier League and I am happy to win the Manager of the Month,' Ancelotti said. 'It is a good moment recently and I have to say thanks to my players. We have fantastic strikers and we support them with good play from the back and we have confidence in our play.'
The decision was made by the Barclays Awards Panel that includes representatives from football's governing bodies, the media and fans.
