Drogba and Co must toe the line
YOUNG AND TALENTED ... new Blues boss Andre Villas-Boas

"I don't think they'll have a choice, they'll just have to do their best for the team and for the club."

Villas-Boas is already being compared to former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, who led Roman Abramovich's expensively assembled side to Premier League glory in his first season at Stamford Bridge.

He also worked with his fellow countryman at Porto and Inter Milan either side of the Special One's trophy-laden reign with the Blues.

But Hasselbaink, 39, believes Villas-Boas has already shown he is more than capable of matching Mourinho's achievements after leading Porto to FOUR trophies last season.

He added: "Initially the appointment was a surprise but obviously he has impressed Abramovich — and that's not easy to do.

"I think it's a very, very good appointment and it's very refreshing because of his age. It's exactly what Chelsea need at this time.
