Chelsea caretaker boss Roberto di Matteo refuses to discuss why Andre Villas-Boas was shown the door on Sunday.

Di Matteo wouldn't comment on the exit of Villas-Boas and the reasons for Chelsea's struggling season. They lie fifth, three points behind Arsenal.

He said: "I don't want to spend time on that. I want to look to the future. I have two months here to achieve our aim and that's what I'm going to put my energy in. We can't change the past.

"I have to make sure the players are in the right frame of mind. That's what I have to do. We know we are fifth and we've made mistakes, but we're strong, we have a good team, and we want to show we are better than where we are at the moment."
