Hiddink gets tough with Chelsea players with dress code

Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink is stamping his authority at Stamford Bridge with a new dress code. Chelsea players were ordered to wear their Armani club suits before and after Wednesday night's Champions League win over Juventus at Stamford Bridge.

It was also the order for last weekend's Premier League match at Aston Villa.

Hiddink insisted too that his men wear the club tie and have it knotted properly.

A club insider told The Sun: "Guus is clearly a man not to be messed with and he's told the players he wants them to play like a team and look like a team.

"He wears the same suit, shirt and tie issued by the club and has told the squad they must do the same.

"Anyone caught with even the knot on their tie loose can be fined £100."

Players were also warned to be on time for training and about the use of mobile phones.
