If the only thing preventing this transfer from happening is money, then we've got our man!

[J.F. 1,484]

He is going to be Chelsea manager for... 1 year ? 5 years? 10 years? 25 years?

edit:

Would take him with open arms. Seems like a very intelligent manager who gets the best out of his players. I just hope the language barrier isn't a problem.

apparently he speaks fluent english

Does he speak English? There are a lot of Portuguese and Brazil players to help him if not, though.

[Melanicus 5,208]

He speaks fluent English..

Porto have stated that no agreement is in place, commenting: "Futebol Clube do Porto, hereby informs the market that the coach Andre Villas-Boas, as well as several players in the squad, has a termination clause. To date, this company has not received any communication that this clause will be exercised."
