Chelsea fans really got to live the dream in terms of transfers.
Roman Abramovich took over and spent crazy amounts of money 15 years ago, and the Blues broke every record in taking themselves to the top of the game.
So we’re not too fussed if we enter a new age of frugality now – although lots of fans will be.
All we want to see is enough money spent to keep us competitive in the Champions League, and nothing drained out of the club to make the owners richer.
That should be more than possible, and new owner Todd Boehly has been very honest about his plans, as stated in quotes picked up by the Evening Standard today.
He pointed to new Financial Pair Play rules as a serious concern that would stop clubs spending freely:
“Financial Fair Play is starting to get some teeth and that will limit ability to acquire players at any price,” the new owner explained.
“UEFA takes it seriously and will continue to take it seriously. [More teeth] means financial penalties and disqualification from competitions.”
He pointed to Liverpool as an example of a team that competed at the top without overspending its means.
“If you look at the models that are very successful, Liverpool is a great model,” said Boehly.
“Liverpool generates a couple of hundred million more revenue than Chelsea and they generate earnings, so there is an opportunity to compete.”
If we can be as successful as they have been in recent years, we don’t really mind how much we spend.
We don’t like your style of administration, this is not the way that SIR Abrmavich take us to , and we successfully.
But you Tod bohly and partners if you are not ready to spend in Chelsea just leave the club, and offer some to buy the club who can invest rapidly.
We loose Antonio Rodger, Christensen, and we are about to loose Alonso and Azpilicueta which kind of ownership is this, since before you come we talking about KONDe yet no any good moving
Fuck Chelsea and Fuck Todd Boerly
We’re tired of this fucking News
We need new boy’s for the team Chelsea CFC
How pathetically obvious. Honestly being dishonest.
Hiding behind the Financial Play Rules is clearly an excuse so as not to spend any decent money on players. FFP rules hasn’t affected the likes of Man City or Real Madrid or the like, in splashing out the cash for top players. Get ready for some disappointing years in mid-table mediocrity until this mob sells off the club.
El tio Abramovich dejó un semillero de talento joven, no necesitamos mas compras millonarias inútiles, como kepa y Lukaku hay que ser más astutos para elegir, yo le daría la oportunidad a Broja y a Gallaguer, y sacó a Tronkaku y a Gorgojinho que nada aportan
Pls do something ,we are Chelsea waiting for your actions, though you are right with the fair play rules but we need to speed Up our action in buying the required players because we’ve lost some ,we hope not to regrets you as a buyer thanks
