Chelsea boss Di Matteo: Our season has been disappointing

Chelsea boss Roberto di Matteo admits their league season has been "disappointing".

The Blues will still finish in their lowest league position since Roman Abramovich bought the club in 2003 and will not play in next season's Champions League unless they beat Bayern Munich.

Di Matteo said: "Chelsea always expect to be challenging at the top, so to finish the season only in sixth place is disappointing.

"But this could still turn into a great season. If we manage to win the final in Munich, it will go down in the history of this club.

"Winning the Champions League would make up for all the problems we've had and would guarantee qualification for next season as well.

"If we don't win, I guess we'll need to reassess the situation.

"After the last game, the people at the club will sit down together and make the right decisions for the future.

"Those decisions involve what changes they want to make to the technical and playing staff. It's not one to discuss now."
