Chelsea boss Villas-Boas forced players to sit through Man Utd highlights reel

Chelsea boss Andre Villas-Boas forced his players to sit through a highlights DVD of Manchester United's title winning season during the summer.

Villas-Boas' No2 Roberto Di Matteo revealed the manager's move yesterday.

Di Matteo revealed: "On the very first day at Cobham, the manager showed all our players a video of United's season.

"They are guaranteed to be up there as they are accustomed to winning - even if their stars are a year older and veterans like Gary Neville and especially Paul Scholes are gone."
