Former Chelsea defender Frank Sinclair claims Blues owner Roman Abramovich could get rid of Andre Villas-Boas, no matter what the cost.

"If Abramovich isn't happy with how things are going he will get rid of someone no matter how much money it costs him," Sinclair told the Weekend Sports Breakfast.

"It does put the manager under a lot of pressure, it appears Abramovich was warmly welcomed to training this week and just wanted to know what’s been going on.

"The manager was happy to have him there but, deep down and behind closed doors, no-one knows what’s being said to him."
