Chelsea now has a new manager. As spoken previously crowded, Andre Villas-Boas eventually appointed by the Blues as their new boss.
The 33 year old has signed a three year contract with the London club after resigning from his post with Porto yesterday.
Villas-Boas is the same age as players Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba but won the Portuguese Primeira Liga, League Cup and UEFA Europa League last season.
