STEPHEN CLARKE JOINS WEST HAM.

Stephen Clarke has paid Chelsea the compensation for breaking his contract two years early.
But West Ham and Gianfraanco Zola are delighted ,to have him as their assistant coach. As Zola and Clarke played together at Chelsea under Claudio Ranierri .
West Hams choice of Zola as head coach came as a suprise to many, and including me . Zola was a wizard on the pitch, and had large amount of shills and control of the ball. But the one thing he did not have for this job was eexperience . Zola has never ever coached a club at any level, in any country, not even in the second or third division club. So this is the real drawback for Zola.
But he is still very popular in England as well as Italy.
After his contact expired under Claudio Ranierri, he then left for an Italian Club and signed a contract. But Chelsea missed the bus by about a day , as they came to Italy with a new contact to sign Zola was already a member of a Italian club, so the deal fell out.
