Gianfranco Zola has had several stages to his career.
The first he was authentic Chelsea legend as a player, coming to the club late in his career but becoming so beloved that he’s regularly named among our greatest ever players.
He then had a mixed spell as a manager, before finally settling down as a coach for us.
One of those managerial roles was at West Ham, and on TalkSport today they had an old player of his, Zavon Hines, talking about what it was like to be managed by such a legendary player.
His stories show that Zola didn’t disappoint!
