André Villas-Boas: The new Chelsea manager

No it's not going to Guus Hiddink afterall and although I am disappointed (and £50 quid worse off) I am excited by the prospect of Villas-Boas coming to Stamford Bridge. Of course he has already been at Chelsea,serving under Jose Mourinho so knows the club already. His Porto team played exciting winning football so he is a good candidate for the job. My only worry is his inexperience.

Welcome to Chelsea Andre. Like all our other managers,I don't expect you to be here for long but before your callous,ruthless sacking,I hope you win us many trophies!

The Villa job: Who wants it?

With Chelsea still hanging about waiting for the arrival of Guus Hiddink,lets focus on the vacant managers post at Aston Villa. Unbelievable that newly resigned Birmingham boss Alex McCleish is the current favourite at 11/10. Imagine the Villa fans don't really want that one!

Its an open book really and I don't really think the bookies have a clue on this one. Others in the frame according to the bookies are David Moyes 3/1,Mark Hughes 4/1,Frank Rijkaard 12/1,Neil Lennon 20/1,Owen Coyle 16/1,Gus Poyet 16/1,Simon Grayson 25/1,Steve Mcmanaman 25/1,Steve McLaren 25/1,Rafa Benitez 25/1,Alan Curbishley 40/1,Bob Bradley 40/1,Gary Mcallister 40/1,Claudio Ranieri 50/1 and so on and on. Like I said,they haven't got a clue.

Who would you pick for the job if you were Villa?

Gus Hiddink: The Only Man For The Job!

So it now looks certain that Gus Hiddink is leaving his post as Turkey manager and coming back to Chelsea. Hopefully as Manager and not Director Of Football (whatever that means) The rumour that Mark Hughes is in line for the managers job is very worrying but that one will hopefully not come true. Latest odds on Gus being the next Chelsea manager are now an encouraging 1/7. Lets hope the bookies are right.

Gus is the right man for the job! Come on Chelsea,get him!
