Chelsea attacker Salomon Kalou is focused on impressing new Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink.[LNB] Hiddink took over at Stamford Bridge last week and is currently preparing for his first game in charge against Aston Villa on Saturday.[LNB]Kalou spent two complete seasons with Feyenoord, scoring 35 goals in 60 starts, at a time when Hiddink's PSV Eindhoven were the outstanding team in the Eredivisie.[LNB]But despite such an impressive strike-rate, 23-year-old Kalou is aware he must prove himself once again before gaining Hiddink's trust.[LNB]"At PSV they were strong at the time he was manager," the Ivorian told the club's official website.[LNB]Challenge"They were champions for three years, which shows how strong they were. They were very difficult to play against.[LNB]"He knows a lot about me because I scored goals in Holland but that is different and we are now in England, a new challenge for me.[LNB]"Because he knows me it doesn't mean that I don't have to show a lot, I have to show him and work hard and impress him again.[LNB]"Everyone is excited and wants to impress the new manager, so there is a challenge for everybody.[LNB]"Those players that weren't playing have a new chance to impress, and those that were now need to show more to keep their position."[LNB]
