The first manager of Chelsea Football Club was John Robertson, appointed in 1905. The club's current manager is José Mourinho. Chelsea have had 26 permanent managers (of whom four also served as player-manager), and six caretaker managers.
Chelsea's first ever manager was Scottish wing-half John Robertson, who continued to play for the club until he resigned a year later. David Calderhead is Chelsea's longest-serving manager, holding the position from 1907–33, spanning 966 matches. Chelsea's shortest reigning permanent manager is Ron Suart, who was in charge for 31 games during the 1974–75 season. Statistically Chelsea's least successful manager is Danny Blanchflower, who won just 16% of his 32 matches in charge.
The first manager under whom Chelsea won a major trophy was Ted Drake, who guided the club to the league championship in the 1954–55 season. Tommy Docherty, Dave Sexton, Ruud Gullit, Gianluca Vialli, José Mourinho, Guus Hiddink, Carlo Ancelotti, Roberto Di Matteo and Rafael Benítez have also won trophies with the club.
Drake led Chelsea to its first league title in 1955, while Sexton took the club their first European honour, a UEFA Cup Winners' Cup triumph in 1971 and Vialli guided Chelsea to win the 1998 UEFA Super Cup. Mourinho won the most domestic titles, whereas Ancelotti led them to their first league and FA Cup "Double". Di Matteo won the first UEFA Champions League for Chelsea in 2012. A year after, Benítez led the club to win the UEFA Europa League, becoming the first club to hold two major European titles simultaneously and one of four clubs, and the only British club, to have won all three of UEFA's major club competitions.
