Chelsea boss reveals transfer policy
Chelsea boss Andre Villas Boas has opened up to the press about the club transfer policy, insisting that he is not solely responsible for the signing of new players.
Villas-Boas has so far brought in only young players this summer, but have been linked with a move for Juan Mata.
Andre Villas-Boas said: "Every decision is a club decision, not just the manager," he said. "It's a group decision between the owner [Roman Abramovich or his intermediary, chief executive Ron Gourlay], with Michael Emenalo [technical director] and the scouting network.
"Signing Courtois, Lukaku and Oriol was a statement for the future â that we are aware of the best talent. It is a club decision. We all agreed it would make sense for our future whoever is in the position [of manager]."
