Hiddink: Chelsea players should look in the mirror
We can’t ignore what has happened but I told them to be professionals and give the best of yourselves to the team. “So I like to look forward”. If you don’t have it, knock on my door and we’ll talk…briefly.

The ex-Russia and Netherlands manager could help Chelsea chase Mourinho’s successor, with the likes of Pep Guardiola, Diego Simeone and Antonio Conte in the frame.
“I respect what he did at many clubs; I don’t know how many, but he won titles everywhere, so a lot of respect for that”.
Hiddink knows the situation is dire at the London club, but has called on the players to raise their game to resurrect the reigning champion’s season.
“This guy has worked for 30 years in football and delivered an unavailable quality of work and I think it’s a bit disrespectful what is going on there”.
“I could not finish that job and it was disappointing for me”, he said. As long as I feel desire, as long as I feel passion [to do the job].
“You’ve got to have a feeling inside your stomach you want to work with the team”.
The ESPN FC panel weigh in on what we should expect from Chelsea in the second half of the season.
Hiddink said at his first press conference on Wednesday: “I shouldn’t be here halfway through the season”. But anyhow I’m glad to be back.
“I shouldn’t be here, but I am”.
The Ivorian striker played 40 games for the club last season in his second stint at Stamford Bridge, before scoring 12 goals in as many games for MLS outfit Montreal Impact.
Hiddink reiterated his admiration for Drogba, but insisted the club’s board would handle any extra back-room recruits.
Hiddink has struggled in every role he’s taken on since leaving Stamford Bridge six years ago and will be keen to show he’s still got what’s required to manage at the top level by salvaging the Blues’ campaign. So it’s nice for guys with these big hearts to connect them somehow with the club.
“The only thing is at the moment is that he’s playing in Montreal”.
Hiddink watched Chelsea’s 3-1 victory over Sunderland last weekend, the first match after Mourinho’s departure, from the stands, and was aware of booing directed at certain players whom the fans felt had contributed to Mourinho’s downfall.
