Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas says new signing Gary Cahill can be the flag-bearer for his Stamford Bridge revolution.

The capture of the England international defender, who has agreed an ?80,000-per-week deal which will expire in 2017, brings to an end Villas-Boas' six month chase for the Bolton player.

The Portuguese boss says Cahill's style will become a vital component of Chelsea's future.
