da cassino： Chelsea boss Andre Villas Boas has been assured by club owner Roman Abramovich that he will not be sacked, even if the English side are eliminated from the Champions League.
The Stamford Bridge side have had an inconsistent 2011-12, with their season hanging in the balance currently; they take on Napoli in Italy in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie on Tuesday night.
Despite the media speculation regarding the Portuguese manager’s future, Villas Boas has revealed that he has been backed by the club’s Russian owner.
“There is full belief from the owner in what we’re doing,” Villas Boas told Sky Sports.
“From the message received from the club recently there is a clear indication that there’s a change in the way we approach the projects of the future.
“There is a belief in what we are going to do next year, setting out a team to win the biggest amount of trophies we can.
“That doesn’t undermine the responsibilities that we have this year. So bearing in mind those responsibilities this year, and the results we’ve been having, speculation is normal based on the cultural past of this football club.
“But we’ve got to understand sometimes there is a different perspective and I think that time is now.
“With full confidence from the owner I will continue to do my job and my job is this year and next year,” he concluded.
