GUUS HIDDINK is ready to quit Turkey for the Chelsea job.

The Dutchman, 64, has had enough of international coaching and wants to return to club management.

In a clear message to Blues owner Roman Abramovich, Hiddink made it plain he is eager to go back to Stamford Bridge and replace axed Carlo Ancelotti as boss.

He said: "I never told anybody that I was going to continue working with Turkey.

"I feel energetic and I like working every day.

"I feel I need to do more, so a club role is more preferable than coaching a national team.

"I haven't told the president of the Turkish FA. But he is an intelligent man and I'm sure he follows the world's media. There is no official offer yet, so I cannot guarantee anything."

Hiddink expects to open formal negotiations with Abramovich next week, following Turkey's European Championship qualifier in Belgium tomorrow.

He still has 12 months of his Turkish contract to run and is relying on Chelsea to negotiate a £4million compensation package.

Hiddink spent three months in charge following Phil Scolari's sacking and led the club to glory in the 2009 FA Cup final against Everton.

He still refers to Abramovich as 'boss' and remains in regular contact with the Russian billionaire.

Look's pretty guaranteed now.

Don't be so ignorant. In the late 80s PSV was a strong force and he won domestic leagues and European cup. in 2005 he took PSV to semi final in CL

Louis Van Gaal took Bayern Munich to Finals against all odds. Why not go for him.?

Hiddink's stint at Chelsea is very deceiving for the following reasons:

1. As someone pointed out...He came under NO Presssure with Team already out of several top competitions.

2. When a New manager is appointed, all players hit peak because they want to impress the new manager. Look at the first 10 games of Avram, Scolari, Hiddink and Ancelotti.

3. His club management record isnt something you would call great. The last great feat he achieved was over 2 decades ago.

4. He failed miserably at Real Madrid over an entire season. We have a similar structure here.

Now his positives:

1. Very good as an International Manager.

2. Has a good record in making ordinary teams surpass expectations in international tournaments. Hasnt won anything though.

The first year we may well win the league under him because players are eager to perform well under a new manager. Its the second year where his management will be tested, when players are in their comfort zones and he faces a task in keeping everyone happy.

What do you mean by SEVERAL TOP COMPETITIONS? he took us to the semi final of the Champions league where we were robbed big time, He won the FA cup. took us to 3rd place in EPL despite that disastrous campaign with Scolari. Is the Carling cup "SEVERAL TOP COMPTETIONS"?

C'mon man.

Perhaps...there is only 1 way to find out.

The board would look at him and see another Carlo. They'd be turned off instantly.

It's not Ancelotti record that turned them off. Not to mention that LvG has won quite a few more league titles.

Sorry, but your reasons to justify Hiddink stints as very deceiving were anything but convincing.

Agree with this 100000%. I guarantee most of our fans who want Hiddink, want him based on 4months of him being here. What happened with his almighty Russia team before World Cup? Thats right they miserably didnt qualify. He is nothing special. But, we will see next May, and if we were to finish 4th and scrape CL qualification, wonder how many of his admirers would suddenly realise

Carlo was 'nothing special' either until he won the Double, then he could do no wrong. Suddenly we have a bad season and he's public enemy number one. My point is football supporters are fickle - remember when we all used to boo Torres and call him a ladyboy? (cue the three or four members who say ' I didn't' - yeah, bullshit, of course you didn't :lol:).

I never called him that. Peroxide Tranny, maybe.

People shouldnt overestimate the importance of a coach - as JT said, even under Mourinho, once you get on the pitch, the manager is mostly irrelevant for 90 minutes.....

Besides, Ancelotti had lost the dressing room, that was obvious. Guus was massively popular - remember the whole squad got him £25,000 watch (or something along those lines) to stay at the club.

If Carlo was only in for the rest of the season he could have got that too, The fact is that as Warnie said, The last think Hiddink did worth note in club football was over two decades go. That speaks volumes.

I think the only manager worth their salt is one that the players respect, will play for, and perform to their best. That normally precludes someone who hasnt played themselves. Exceptions would be Mourinho, and the players playing for themselves after Mourinho left, and we were left with the sack of spuds putting out cones.

Hiddink definitely falls into the respect category -and I think he will return shortly , followed by success for the club at last in the CL

No. I'm sure they want Hiddink because they understand enough about football to know that Hiddink is way better than Carlo.

I'm sure you dont know anything about Hiddink besides his 4 month spell.

Football is not only CL + PL.

You can't judge a managers job based in simple statistics. So, that speaks zero volume. Hiddink is a great manager, and thats beyond doubt.
