Anything is possible Brummie. Personally I think if Frank does come them Morris will come too,but your scenario is perfectly feasible. I don't see Steve Holland leaving England.

I don't see why Holland would leave The England setup either Biggish, things are going pretty well for him alongside Southgate at the moment, so I don't imagine he'd want to trade that for a place here, with all the uncertainty around.

He definitely would if he was offered a managers role but not for part of the backroom staff no.

Brummie I don't see Morris not coming back to Chelsea if Frank does. They come as a pair as far as I'm concerned. Based on the tweet that Jody sent to Frank on his birthday this week I'd say there's no way they're separating anytime soon.

In a caption to an image posted on Instagram, Morris said: "By your side alway, no matter what... happy birthday mate. Love ya."

I'm by now means implying Superb, that he wouldn't come if Frank did, just that people just seem to assume that he would come.

Most football coaches would want at some point to be seen as their own man, why wouldn't Jody if a decent opportunity arose?

I'm not totally convinced he's that bothered about being his own manager atleast not yet.

He was probably the best placed out of all our ex players for the future manager's gig and effectively forefitted that right by going to be Frank's assistant.

Would be an incredibly bold move by Derby to appoint Morris. Definitely possible though, you get some proper left field appointments in that division.

The top 6 last year had fascinating diversity with the managers. Everything from the grass rooted non league guy to the man Guardiola described as the best manager in the world

Anything is possible in the future Brummie, but Jody has spent a lot for years at this club as a player and a coach so if the opportunity arises for him to come back here as assistant manager then I just don't see him turning that opportunity down for anything, realistically speaking. Especially if it means being able to do it alongside Frank.

I'd be absolutely gutted if Jody wasn't to come back here with Frank. For me a major part of the appeal of getting Frank is that Jody is coming with him and I honestly can't think of anyone better suited to help bring through this fantastic generation of kids we have than Jody Morris.

Would it be that bold a move though Devil? They took a punt on Frank who had never had a managerial role of any sort and appointed him more on reputation (And Uncle Arry's word if you listen to everything he says) of his name than anything.

Jody has been producing, admittedly at Academy level, great results with young players and if anything has greater managerial experience than Frank.

I suggest we go double or nothing on that bet Brummie. I'm saying we're getting Frank+Jody together. If we don't then I owe you two Stellas

Ok, you're on!

Lampard had a name though, like Gerrard going to Rangers, Morris would be very left field.

I could see it happening now you mentioned it. Huddersfield & Norwich hired Dortmund's academy coaches and they got promoted with them, combine that with Lampard being largely popular and successful there and you can imagine Derby finding it appealing.
