Aa André Villas-Boas
acknowledge that you have fallen short of the minimum expected and dismissed the chance of Chelsea winning the title as the fantasy, with the manager on the left to point to objective humblest of finishing in the top four. Villas-Boas saw his team fall into the new year in fifth place after suffering a third defeat at home to league season, 3-1 against Aston Villa, with his players to leave a choir of boos. He does not fear for his future at the club six months in his three-year contract, although it seems the age of 34, gave up a frustrating first season in charge.- "The minimum requirement for a club like this is the first place," said Villas-Boas, after Villa had won a first victory at Stamford Bridge in nine years. "But I think the title is realistic. It is a fantasy. Our reality has to be finished in the top four, but even that would not be good enough. We must continue with the best possible finish in the league, and it will finish this humble club. "
"We lost a great opportunity over the last four games to close the gap with the leaders. We had been in the title race if we had a great December. Boo is the most critical valuable that we have. It is acceptable to consider. "
Villas-Boas
expressed exasperation at the required timing of his team, Chelsea, forced to play four times in 11 days, while other contenders, especially Manchester United, have been little time to recover. "Each club should have the same program," he said. "It must be the same for everyone, not just how it is divided at that time. I know the demands of television are high, but the players will undergo physical tensions that undermine their careers and ambitions in Euro 2012 and the objectives of their clubs. This is a very difficult situation. "
