Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich still hasn't decided whether to continue with manager Roberto di Matteo.

The Mirror says Abramovich is still hedging his bets on the manager who will open Chelsea's defence of their Champions League title.

Di Matteo, the interim miracle-worker who salvaged two trophies from the wreckage of the short-lived Andre Villas-Boas era, expects to be cast aside if former Barcelona gaffer Pep Guardiola can be persuaded to turn his planned 12-month sabbatical from football into a brief holiday.
