Rolfes or Hasan Salihamidzic from Bayern who built their treble winning side with Hansi Flick would be spectacular. Sadly we all know that won’t happen
"Put simply, Xabi Alonso is the best candidate currently available in my view. He’s without a club, knows the PL and is a proven winner. In my view, Chelsea should be going all out to get him. I would personally then go and get Simon Rolfes, the Director of Football from Leverkusen, who worked with Alonso to build his title winning squad, as our new Sporting Director. Then, let them work together with David Fallows, already at Chelsea and one of the men behind Klopp’s Liverpool, and rebuild the Chelsea squad and the club for the long term."
Really interesting cheers Si. For me this is a perfect opportunity to hire a manager they want to build around and not fire, Alonso is just perfect!! He ticks so many boxes for the SD and fans

I like that plan

Interesting that 4 of the top 7 clubs in the Premier League are coached by Spaniards, and that the reigning European Champions are Spanish-coached
Fink and Behdad need this article in the boardroom.
Alonso with Azpi as his assistant would be unreal!
