The new coach of London calms passions and says that you cannot expect too much from one person. The 33-year-old specialist, a contemporary of experienced midfielder Frank Lampard and forward Didier Drogba, signed a three-year contract. English vice-champions "Porto" paid €15 million for him. "Don't expect too much from one person," freely English-speaking Villas Boas reassured on "Chelsea TV." "We need to create a dynamic and united group that should have great motivation. It's not important that I'm arriving - the essence is to continue the successful existence of the club." The strategist admitted that the pressure will be immense: "Let's see what this team has achieved in the past six years, and in the future we can compare it with the next six years. Without any doubt, I face a challenge - we need to continue winning. But I am thirsty for victories and I don't want that to change." Indeed, in Portugal, the news about Villas Boas's decision was not received favorably. BBC journalist in Porto Matt Slater said: "Although officially 'Porto' claims that they parted ways nicely, everything is not so great as it seems. Another careerist obsessed with big money - that's how I could politely describe the rumors circulating. He even has a new nickname - Andre Libras-Boas: Andre Many-Pounds."
