Andre Villas Boas to be confirmed as Chelsea manager
View attachment 237673

Following the dismissal of Carlo Ancelotti it is believed that Porto manager Andre Villas Boas is set to take over as the manager of Chelsea football club. The Portuguese manager had a highly successful season last year winning the Treble including the Portuguese league and cup as well as the Europa League. Villas Boas used to work at Stamford Bridge under fan favorite Jose Mourinho and has learned from his fellow countryman. Chelsea fans are looking forward to the 33 year old taking charge largely due to his likeness of Mourinho. If Villas Boas accepts this job he will be under a lot of pressure to succeed at Stamford Bridge as owner Roman Abramovich has little patience with managers at the club as has been shown by him going through 6 managers in just over 6 years.
The odds on the next chelsea manager are as follows ;
Andre Villas Boas - 7/4
Guus Hiddink - 3/1
Jose Mourinho - 7/1
Pep Guardiola - 7/1
Liam Byrne - 11/1
The name of Byrne won't be familiar to most Chelsea fans, but the 39 year old Irish man began his career at Chelsea before moving back to his native home of Ireland to play out his playing career when he was told he wasn't good enough for the Premier League. However he returned to Stamford Bridge as a scout in 2006 and became the manager of the Chelsea youth team in 2008.
