Posted January 19, 201213 yr Not sure whether to believe this but this just cropped up on twitter: @TheChelsOrgTheChels.Org Dennis Wise apparently being lined up as sporting director for #CFC. Make of that what you will... I would love to have Wisey back at the club in any capacity, though I`m not sure how AVB will feel.
January 19, 201213 yr I would also love for it to happen, he is my all time Chelsea hero. However i dont think it is true at all. I have a feeling that we wont see a sporting director or anything like that brought in while AVB is in charge.
January 19, 201213 yr Haha! I thought you were going to say "A Wise man once said, 'My wife told me that...'"
January 19, 201213 yr I heard actually that he was to head up the English skills department in the youth academy
January 19, 201213 yr I heard actually that he was to head up the English skills department in the youth academy NO!!!! I could do that!
January 19, 201213 yr Author I think this is all coming from a rumour he is to give up his position as VP in the CPO.
January 19, 201213 yr I love the guy. Big personality compared to these overpaid professionals. He didn't do always right but he was in it with heart. That is what we don't see too much anymore. Everyone is too professional. That is why I love guys like Essien who have that kind of force in them on the field. Not that Essien ever says anything as Wise did but as footballer they have similarities. Gattuso is probably much closer to Wise's style. Other team supporters hate them but you love them in your team. Not sure about the sporting director job. Don't even know what a SD does actually but it sounds too "cabinet" for Wise IMO.
January 19, 201213 yr Author Wisey has a bit of a chequered history with this particular role, doesn't he? At Newcastle, yes. But he did the job from London.....
January 22, 201213 yr Not sure whether to believe this but this just cropped up on twitter: I would love to have Wisey back at the club in any capacity, though I`m not sure how AVB will feel. Who cares what he'd feel, i, for one don't.......get Wisey in!!! Edited January 22, 201213 yr by WV2 Blue
