"Because what Chelsea fans will be saying is, we want a manager, we don't want a head coach, we don't want a yes man, we want somebody who is going to absolutely rule the club and rule the dressing room. I don't think that's going to be the case with Xabi Alonso, because he still has to fit into the structure, of course, but I would agree with you, I think he will have more say, more input than quite a lot of his predecessors."

"I think if you ask most head coaches what they would prefer, they would say, I prefer to be the manager, because manager gives you more authority, and I think Xabi Alonso will have more authority than a head coach at Chelsea."

"Interestingly, we've been told that it was Chelsea's idea to give him that title, he didn't ask for it, but certainly he will have more authority, more input into all aspects of the running of the club."
