Was Crofts not here before Hammond? Gus obviously wanted that type of player and Hammond, in Gus' view, fits into that position better. Lets not forget that Crofts was pretty much an ever-present during Norwich's run to the Prem.
It wouldn't be a bad publicity stunt would it. Say Hope Powell gets the Crawley job for instance. They throw a bit of cash behind her and after a season or two they go up. They are applauded as breaking down barriers etc, Hope Powell possibly opens the gate for other female managers and everyone...

Occasionally we have games like this, City have won 4 on the spin...

Yes they did both do very well but this is about CHELSEA needing a big name and experiance, not Barcelona or Madrid. Chelsea tried the ex-player route and they got rid of him. They also tried the young manager building a team and he was ousted by the players so that didnt work either.
Why...

Anyway, this is a pointless conversation.
They have one League 1 title between them. Yes they are doing well in the Championship at the moment but Chelsea are looking to win the Champions League and Premier League which is a big step up from where they both are. I am sure that Poyet and Zola will be nearer that level one day but not...
