Villas-Boas confident about Chelsea challenge

New Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas believes he can satisfy the club’s thirst for silverware and accepts he will be held to the highest of standards at Stamford Bridge.

The 33-year-old, who worked in Jose Mourinho’s backroom team during his time at the club, was yesterday confirmed as Carlo Ancelotti’s successor on a three-year deal that will see Chelsea pay Porto a release fee of around £13.3m.
