Chelsea striker Fernando Torres admits the lack of managerial stability has hurt their trophy hunt.
Torres concedes he's not reached the heights at Chelsea he enjoyed with Liverpool.
"Everyone was a bit lost," he recalled to So Foot. "Before my arrival, Chelsea played with Anelka and Drogba in attack. I arrived to play alongside Anelka in a system with three midfielders. We played only one match with that system.
"At the time, David Luiz and myself went to see Ancelotti together because we had been the last arrivals, we were told we would be important, but, in reality, we weren't playing. They finished by saying to us: 'We are going to finish the season with the team that started it'.
"I understood nothing of what had happened. I started to know the experience of the bench. I reassured myself by saying things would soon change. Villas-Boas arrived, then Di Matteo but it was always the same: one day I played, the next not."
