Manchester United hero Andrei Kanchelskis can see Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich sacking Andre Villas-Boas at the end of the season.

Kanchelskis hailed his former manager Sir Alex Ferguson after United's comeback at Chelsea on Sunday.

"Sir Alex has once again proven that he is a true professional. It is hard for me to judge the situation inside the Chelsea camp, but the team rarely looks completely focussed, there are signs of a lack of confidence in their every game," said Kanchelskis.

"I can imagine them not making the top-four this year and, if that happens, Villas-Boas is likely to get the sack. The fans probably should not count on winning this season's European Cup either."
