And what? You think any other model would result in less debt? The moment they made a decision to overhaul the squad it was inevitable.

Of course it was bridged in majority through player trading. PSR - and UEFA FFR require player trading as a key driver for balancing - contract amortisation is encompassed and not exclusive.

There are very good reasons why people fear being the first do anything. And you thinking the gamble isn't worth it is irrelevant. The owners are where they are because they dare to try and fail.

The scum that runs us can dare to try and fail elsewhere - I have no idea where the money that finances them is coming from, and I want them out of the club before they do more damage. They get out now, they still make money. Win win as the Chinese would say.

 
You seem to be very pleased with the way we are now , very supportive of our Private Equity investment ownership , and very dismissive and dissatisfied about the old regime. .

That 'pathetic" attack? We were the 3rd highest goal scoring team in the League.

That defence you've dismissed as being inferior? We had the 3rd best defensive goals against in the League..

You must have been delighted when the club was sanctioned and that useless Abramovitch was forced to sell up .

Come on you BLUES!

Actually not at all. I will simply defend what needs to be defended, in any discussion. There are definitely things they've done well, and a lot they haven't. I have zero loyalty or affection for BlueCo - they very much still need to prove their intentions. But that doesn't mean I will bleat like a sheep because it's more acceptable.

Understand the frustration. I honestly don't think they've damaged much at all - considering the state of the squad and the club at the time of the takeover. And there are much worse ways it could have gone with different owners. Of course that doesnt mean that you should blindly accept their failures.

The decision to completely overhaul the squad was correct. To change the wage model was correct. To change the transfer policy was correct, given the landscape and club status. To change the club structure was correct. To move to a multi-club model was correct. All of these put us in a better position to be successful going forward compared to where we were. But the implementation of these has so far been a mixed bag and I'm sure most of us can agree on what needs to be changed/tweaked.

In your opinion ...

 
I went utter f**king sh*te overall, they have a little bit of credit but not much. The money spent in comparison to the amount of hit signings we have is a disgrace, the managerial appointments have been piss poor, their communication with supporters has been dog sh*t.

Football, is about the now. Immediate results, winning trophies. If you thnk the club needed to change that... I cant help you.

I often wear sunglasses looking into the future because of the blinding light of optimism. That light has created a huge shadow over Stamford bridge, 1.5 billion in debt, five managers now in 3 three and a half seasons... Hiring and firing is worse under the new owners - a better way of doing business you say?

Didnt we try the multi club under Roman? the only club doing it correctly is Nottingham forrest. Ask Strasbourg fans what they think of the set up.

WE've spent massive money on players who were injured when we bought them, we've got senior professionals who cant get in the squad, we sold our best youngsters to direct rivals ahead of us in the league.

The change that needs to happen is the owners selling up. Full stop. Exclamation mark. The club has been asset stripped and cant buy players without selling and not sure what the club sells to itself to balance the books this season.

The players who bought into the change of ownership, and have done well wont be here past the summer, we will have to cash out of the casion we were forced into to hand over our money.

Owners out by Summer would be a perfeect scenario

Thanks for insulting Chelsea fans by saying "we are bleating like sheep" if we dare to voice criticism of what's happening at our club..

So, If Roman had suddenly announced at the start of a season that he was now going to change the way we did things, and try something that no one else has tried, and was going to "take a gamble" with our club instead, then sacked loads of staff, appointed himself interim Sporting Director, spent over a £1 billion and in the process bombed us down the League table and out of Europe, and told us to forget about the new stadium he promised us, that would have had your approval??

 
Poor from me,

would probably translate to a 3/10 which in itself imo probably represents the ratio of successes/signings or maybe I'm being over generous.

 
No surprise at who was one of the voters for

'pure Genius " but surprised at the usually sensible bloke though

 
Us fans don't understand. Obviously we don't because our Board rewarded the Sporting Directors with 6 year extended contracts so pleased were they with them..

The real problem is the ownership " model" .

 
Naturally. Certainly wouldn't call on the opinion of those who knock the directors for not doing the impossible and signing Osimhen at 120k/week... I can always back mine up.
