AVB is now gone.

Chelsea have parted company with André Villas-Boas. The manager has left the club following a string of poor results that culminated in Saturday's 1-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion which left the club fifth in the table.

Villas-Boas's assistant, Roberto Di Matteo, has been appointed the new first-team coach until the end of the season.

Mourinho was in London this week looking at houses, too. Hmmm.
