Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink is desperate to win the FA Cup, before leaving the club to carry on his quest to qualify for next year's World Cup with Russia.
The former PSV Eindhoven manager has stated that he is to retire from football after that, and is looking to go out of club management on a high.
Hiddink took temporary charge at Stamford Bridge three months ago, after the Blues sacked former manager Luis Felipe Scolari.
And now, the Russia coach has revealed just how keen he is to lift the FA Cup, after guiding the club to the final, where they will meet Everton at Wembley.
Speaking to The Daily Star, Hiddink said, "I am very determined that we should win the FA Cup.
"I was already determined, but hopefully we’ll get our first aim, set in February, to qualify for the Champions League.
"Then, when things are going well, you can’t just be satisfied with that at a big club, so we extended our targets.
"In February, people would have raised their eyebrows if we said we’d get to a final.
"But, being there, we’re very determined. I want to leave having won something."
The Blues also made a late push for the Premier League title and, at one stage, had a realistic chance of overcoming the challenge of Manchester United and Liverpool. They now have to make do with battling Arsenal for third spot and automatic qualification to the Champions League.
