# Should Hiddink have been given the Chelsea job permanently?

Due to Chelsea’s form in the second half of the campaign, a few eyebrows were raised when they [announced](https://readchelsea.com/2016/04/04/conte-announced-new-chelsea-head-coach/) that Antonio Conte would take over next season.

Many pundits and fans have [called](https://talksport.com/football/chelsea-fc-news-hiddink-needs-stay-permanent-manager-say-blues-supporters-160222185850) for Chelsea to hand Guus Hiddink the job permanently after the job he has done this season.

Hiddink arrived and steadied the ship for Chelsea after a cagey season under Jose Mourinho, so we want to hear from you.

Decide from the options below, should Chelsea have kept hold of Hiddink?
