Hello
I am a Chelsea fan from the Netherlands (coincidentally Mbuyamba played for my local team MVV). I am obsessed with football (crazy like Bielsa). I used to watch Match Of the Day on Sunday morning, i think it was on really early like 7.30 or 8.30, (i remember seeing Petr Cech getting injured so i must have started watching from around 2006 when i was 12). if i had to pick a certain game to mark the start of really following Chelsea closely it would have been the 2009 Barcelona game. The injustice of it all left me sort of wanting to see revenge and revival. Over the years i have become very fond of the players and the club. I watch every game on english streams as i cannot stand the dutch commentators.
I have been to London a couple of times. I went to the FA Cup Quarterfinal against Man Utd when Willian had braids and Kanté scored the winner.
I like to browse through the vintage pictures and film section and read stories from people who go to the games and have been fans for years, and sort of vicariously feel like a proper fan 💙 hope to be able to go to more games in the future.
P.S. I love English breakfast & Lucian Freud, i know roman has one of his nude paintings in his collection (the one of the really fat lady)
