Mateja Kezman and Guus Hiddink once enjoyed a very fruitful relationship at PSV Eindhoven, one that the former leveraged into an (ultimately underwhelming) move to Chelsea in 2004. But apparently player and manager have kept in contact since, as Kezman claims to know exactly who's going to fill the suddenly vacant Chelsea managerial post.
"I do not know if it is officially confirmed, whether the club has announced it, but Guus told me earlier."

The only thing that's confirmed is that Mourinho is gone. At this moment, all signs point to Steve Holland being in charge for Saturday's match, with either Hiddink or Juande Ramos coming in as interim manager very soon as well.
Kezman is not only convinced that it will be Hiddink and that he will be "a great choice", but that 69-year-old still has an abundance of magic powers left to give.
"I am convinced that with him Chelsea will recover. I would even say they are one of the favourites for the Champions League."

Bold. Strong. Unlike Kezman's goal-scoring record post-Hiddink. But maybe he's right. Maybe Hiddink will once again win all but one of his games in charge. That could be fun.
