Shame to lose him - from what I have heard he is highly though of.

Well that sucks, but i guess its the kind of oppertunity he cant turn down. I hope the club try to get an ex player involved in some way, Franco would be perfect but oh well.

Good for Brendan.

What's Glenn Hoddle doing? :(

He'll be missed but I think he'll do well. Wonder how many of the kids he'll take on loan?

Good luck to him !

It was always going to happen, I hope he does well. For our reserves it's a disaster. This season so far we've lost Eddie Newton, Steve Clarke and Brendan Rodgers who's next?

good luck to him, at least we now have another team to send our young uns out on loan to. wise for new ressie coach, or maybe the rock.

So now altogether with all the scouts I think we've lost our entire youth department?

Apart from the youth of course

Apparently Mourinho wanted him to go over the Inter. He clearly rates him highly. I hope he does well but there does seem to be a steady exodus of talented coaching staff at the moment. This is a bit more understandable than Clarke going to West Ham though.

Mourinho's blessing is just the job for Rogers to take over at Watford

Best of luck to him, hope he gained some great knowledge while at Chelsea.

This is the best step for a YT manager, to make the step into 1st team management, so I can't blame him at all
