Football: Extending transfer window makes my job more difficult - Ancelotti

REUTERS: Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti is not in favour of closing the Premier League transfer window after the season gets underway because it makes managing players looking for a move away more difficult.

"For my job it's not good to have this window so open," Ancelotti told reporters on Friday ahead of Crystal Palace's league visit. Everton have had an upturn in from since Ancelotti took charge, losing only once in their last 10 league games to move out of the relegation zone and up to ninth.The Italian manager said that though qualifying for the Europa League was a possibility, finishing fourth and claiming a Champions League spot was a difficult proposition with Everton sitting eight points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

"Honestly, we are not thinking about . To play the Europa League would be a fantastic result for us for next season. This is the target ... Chelsea is too far ahead at the moment.Everton also face the prospect of seeing their Merseyside derby rivals Liverpool winning the Premier League title on their turf when the league leaders visit on Mar 16.
