Di Matteo again insists he's not thinking about Chelsea job

Chelsea boss Roberto di Matteo has again insisted he's not thought about taking the job permanently.

The former West Brom boss knows that delivering Roman Abramovich the Holy Grail - the Champions League - would secure him the coaching job on a permanent basis.

But he claimed: "I seriously haven't thought about it. It's not a question that should be asked right now. I'm just trying to do my best for the club.

"The club will make it's decision and I have faith in the club that they will make the right decisions for the future of the club.

"The club is bigger than any coach or any player.

"It's funny all the stories I read and hear. But I have my dignity and I will keep it and work hard for this club and the players."
