I saw a thread about ex Man Utd players not making good managers so I thought I would like to share the Chelsea team from about 98 to about 02

Albert Ferrer - Vitesse (no longer)
Dan Petrescu - Kuban Krosnodar
Erland Johnsen - Lillestrom
Di Matteo - MK Dons and West Brom (no longer)
Didier Deschamps - Marseille
Gus Poyet - Brighton
Dennis Wise - Swindon and Leeds (no longer)
Mark Hughes - Blackburn, Fulham, Wales and Man City (no longer)
Gianluca Vialli - Chelsea and Watford (no longer)
Gianfranco Zola - Westham (no longer)
Pierluigi Casiraghi - Italy under 21's
Ruud Gullit - Chelsea, Newcastle, Feyenoord, LA Galaxy, Terek Grozny (no longer)
Steve Clarke - Assistant to anyone
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink - Coach at Forest
Ed De Goey - Coach at Feyenoord

Has anyone ever seen their team produce this amount of players that stay in the game? I'm not saying all are good either(most aren't)
 
I think he will stay as long as the board back him, I don't think he will turn his back on you lot like he did us (Chelsea) when he went to Spurs.

It hurts but I still love him.
 
I hope so as the Stadium looks great, haven't seen the team but to get promotion you can't be bad or average so maybe a few years to settle in the Championship and then push on for the Premiership, once there I hope the board don't see the ££ signs and continue to invest.

It's why Norwich and QPR are certain to go down, Swansea I think are the strongest to play Premiership football and it will be between them and Wigan as to who makes the third team to go down.
 
To win the Championship or just to go up?

I don't know much about the Championship anymore which is a shame as it seems to be far more competitive than the Premiership and the SPL.

If you don't win tell Gus and he may sort you out, clubs love a good sob story for publicity
 
"I wanted to bet on just promotion, but 5-1 was just too low for me tbh."
Yeah I never bet on anything under 10-1 as there is no fun in it for me.

Not really greats of the game but it was merely the amount rather than the substance, maybe it's the self importance they get a the Bridge?
