Reading today that Frank is very close to completing his coaching badges and so Chelsea would like him to join the first team coaching staff and potentially become the manager one day
I had read previously that he had applied for the Oxford job but the article today states that was not the case as he has been happy coaching teams at Chelsea (not the first team) and he has done enough to impress Roman who wants to promote his once correctly qualified (that’s the Roman who is no longer interested in Chelsea)
I guess an issue I see is that whomever the manager may be, Conte or ANO, must be prepared to take Frank under their wing but I guess that could easily be made a stipulation by Roman anyway…?
I also read a few months ago that JT was doing exactly the same thing and that he would not continue to play next season if Villa got promoted as it would mean playing against Chelsea..? No idea how true that is but I certainly would love to see both Frank and JT back at the Bridge helping out in some capacity or other. IMO, that could only improve things around the Club and certainly help to instil that strong winning mentality that seems not to be consistently present at the moment. KTBFFH
