Day Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 14 minutes ago, TommyPowel said: I agree entirely but I assume if Chelsea do not appoint Frank the 4 million is no more? Ok, if Chelsea do not appoint Frank now, you either hope a mutual agreement can be made to terminate his contract without compensation for either, or as fans make Frank aware he has been a very naughty boy, but you’re here, let’s try our best to put this behind us. Not sure which way the club would go, as I say it feels like irreversible damage has been done. Very rarely do football fans forgive and forget. Obviously the ideal situation now would be Frank takes over Chelsea, hopefully announced tonight, compensation cheque an Tomori in the post. Mel gets on the blower to the agent of Cocu or whoever he has in mind, tell him to pack his bags he’s off to Florida and we see an appointment made before the weekend.

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I'm guessing that if this Poll were to start again, the pendulum just swung massively to Cocu. From 09.01am this morning, I no longer want Frank to be any part of our club. I also want this to fail miserably for all of them when they do takeover - not from sour grapes from leaving Derby, I can understand why he wants to go but from us now having to start pre-season in limbo and the players coming in to no manager. This is showing disresepect on a new level. Oh, and they can shove their loans up their arse, we don't want any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Not sure Josefzoon would be that happy if Cocu is the choice. He was asked in a Brentford interview, how did Cocu help his career and Josefzoon said he didn't really, as he didn't play. Suppose Memphis Depay and whoever else was probably a better option at that point though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EulogyForEvolution Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I have a feeling that Frank is gone, sad as it is to say. I just hope it doesn't drag out for much longer. It pisses me off that they haven't sorted it by this point, one way or another. Cocu is a genuinely exciting name to be linked it. It would allow for some Frank and Jody continuity but with a bit more experience. It would actually be great if we could keep Jody as his assistant - I know it won't happen, but it would be amazing! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papahet Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Promotion > Style of play Cocu every single time from me. We are being too demanding wanting promotion, exciting football, u18's in and around the side and winning games comfortably. Gimmie promotion and the money that goes with it please.

irobinson Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Cocu I think now - hes tarnished us a bit, FL. - and himself with the protracted negotiations. And - we can still close a deal to get two Chelsea loanees. - as well as access to the Dutch market via Phillip - if hes on his way best of both worlds on players I reckon Cocu also has more experience as a manager also. - and I like Dutch managers approach to the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Research into cocu suggests he’s a very defensive solid manager. If any of you are expecting continuity from Lampard I think you’re gonna be disappointed... it’s gonna be a team based on a strong back 4 and fast wingers chasing 1-0 wins. Certainly not going to be an attacking pressing mentality. That said, that doesn’t mean hoofball. He still puts a lot of emphasis on the quality of his midfield. Imo he sounds like a clement style rather than a Rowett or Lampard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Seems like Cocu is the first name we've heard which excites us and we've taken that and ran with it. This rumour has come from similar media to the ones who have been claiming Lampard's moved is 48 hours way for 200 consecutive hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandExile Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 I was desperate for Frank to stay - I loved the atmosphere around the club that he created last year. I even voted for him in this poll that I created only last night. But enough is enough. Not stopping his friends and relatives from pushing his case, then the Instagram from Christine, was bad enough. However, he has had the opportunity to push Chelsea to wrap it up quicker than this. He arrived full of respect for the club and its history. It's a real shame that it is ending on such a sour note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fair point and, from a media savvy couple, was probably intended to highlight the dilemma he was facing. However, Drogba and the Redknaps are close to him - he could have had a word about their multiple postings. That seemed like campaigning for the job. But Chelsea are now really dragging it out.....we don't know but I would hope Lampard has been trying to get them to accelerate out of respect for Mel, the club, its supporters and players.
