Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti denied there is a disciplinary problem at the club after Ashley Cole accidentally shot a work placement student.

He insisted "proper action" had been taken against Cole for wounding Tom Cowan, 21, with an air rifle.

"Cobham [Chelsea's training ground] is not out of control," said Ancelotti, ahead of his side's Premier League game against Manchester United on Tuesday.

"There is discipline. If a player steps over the line, we'll take a decision."

On claims of player power, Ancelotti added: "They have no power."

Cole, 30, has apologised for his actions and Ancelotti has insisted the England left-back will be in his team to take on league leaders United at Stamford Bridge.

"He will play, yes," said Ancelotti. "Obviously, we are not happy with what happened. But I have spoken with him.
