Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is ready to bounce Ashley Cole out of the club. The Sun says Abramovich is unhappy with senior stars criticising manager Andre Villas-Boas and is set to stamp out a dressing-room revolt with a summer clear-out.
A club insider said: "When the players question the manager, they are questioning the owner's judgment.
"Andre Villas-Boas was Mr Abramovich's personal choice. In the past, the senior players have sometimes got their way over an unpopular manager.
"But this time Mr Abramovich is fed up with their moaning."
