Tottenham Hotspur boss Andre Villas-Boas has admitted that he made "mistakes" during his time in charge of Chelsea.
Villas-Boas was sacked by the Blues last season before being replaced by Roberto Di Matteo, who went on to lift the European Cup for the first time in the club's history.
"I think they could have given me the opportunity to continue. But I am fully aware that changing was the only way to make an immediate impact on the results," Villas-Boas told France Football.
"What we have been doing at Tottenham with my staff is a reaction to the mistakes we made at Chelsea."
Spurs currently sit fourth in the Premier League table.
