Guus - Farewell will be tough
Guus Hiddink has conceded he will find it 'tough' when he parts company with Chelsea at the end of the season.
The Dutch coach has impressed since taking over from Luiz Felipe Scolari in February and could still end his short time in charge on a high when the club face Everton in the FA Cup final on 30th May.
Hiddink is then set to resume sole charge of Russia, despite reports that he could stay on as manager at Stamford Bridge.
The former PSV Eindhoven boss said in the Guardian: "It'll be tough to leave it all, that's true.
"I love to work with this club. I'm not defending where they crossed the line but the way the boys reacted against Barcelona (in the UEFA Champions League) shows that there is such a very strong desire and personality in this team.
"They like to fight for their chances. I've worked with them with a lot of joy."
He continued: "I've enjoyed working with this team. The players here aren't just enjoying a good life, putting their feet up in luxury.
"They want to perform at a big club. That makes it very enjoyable and difficult to leave. I feel as if I've been intrinsically involved with this club.
"I could have come here and just gone through the motions, done a daily routine, for three months. But that's not the way I like to work.
"Okay, sure, you don't feel as if you're a part of things on day one but I had that after a week here. In the end, though, we part. That's just how it is. Let's not be too dramatic. That's life."
