Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas knows his long-term job prospects depend on silverware.

While Villas-Boas would be happy to be cherished for the quality of his football, it is the quantity of silverware on his CV that is more important.

"The trophy cabinet is something that is more visible," he said.

"The way you achieve it is something very, very valuable and respectful and, for sure, I respect it more than the rest.

"But what is expected of me is to win trophies, particularly at a massive club like this one.

"So I wouldn't forgive myself if I missed the opportunity to win major trophies at this club."

Villas-Boas, who plans to quit his profession in the next 15 years, added: "The time will come when I feel proud of what I have achieved and I will leave my position.

"I want to have something that I can be proud of and I will try to get it."
