“At Chelsea, another sacking is just like any other day at the office” – Villas-Bo

Andre Villas-Boas has said that Roman Abramovich sacking Roberto Di Matteo, is ‘another day at the office’, for any Chelsea manager. Di Matteo replaced Villas-Boas at the club, but lasted just five days more than the Portuguese, despite winning both the Champions League and FA Cup.

“At Chelsea another sacking is just like any other day at the office. That’s my interpretation,” the 34-year-old said.

“It’s difficult for Robbie. I wish him well in his career. He has achieved so much in such a small amount of time.

“His CV is now one of the best in the world. He is a European champion and an FA Cup winner. It’s the club’s decision. It’s what they think moves them forward. I can’t really comment on that.”

Villas-Boas himself, is under pressure at Tottenham Hotspur, as he not recorded good results. But on Thursday night, he will be hoping to get a win over Lazio, in the Europa league, after a 5-2 loss at Arsenal last weekend.
