Inexperienced manager have given off days after 4-0 humiliation against his former team. One thing I am okay with boehly he wanted entire team gone.
We had worst injury record ranked 20 th last season.
One year sponsor without cl I am okay with it.

Is the article not saying it would be a 3 year deal?
May be you are right but what we learned it's rolling contract either side can terminate it or reevaluate it at the end of each season. Without Europe we are contend with it.
Off topic slightly, is that guy who was the Boehly / Clearlake cheerleader still kicking about? Was he Bluelion or something like that?
Matt Law says it's a 1 year deal:

Money-wise it's not a bad deal at all. Same value as the current sponsor and only for one season. If (right now a big if though) we can get CL footy back in time for 24/25 season the club would be in a much better position to negotiate a longer term deal at a higher value, and with some more respectable businesses too.
But yeah despite the money being allright I wouldn't advocate any gambling or crypto sponsorships, they're scum.
Ah, makes sense then I suppose, I wondered about the gambling rule.
Think our Emirates shirt deal is up next season as well, although id imagine we'll renew on slightly better terms. Would be strange seeing a different sponsor at the front of the shirt after all this time, think it's the longest current deal in the country.
Why? PIF links with clearlake not new and clearlake manage some of their wealth. PL and govt already scrutinised that and then only allowed clearlake to take over Chelsea.
I think using buddies to help your club moving deadwood isn’t a great look for your club.
This isn’t how sport should work.
Stake as our sponsor wouldn't be a good look.
Selling players to Saudi, China or elsewhere, not so much. Just business.

Exactly. They want our players even United arsenal and city wanted ours. Not exactly Deadwood. Question will be raised only if we sell above market value to them.

This things football authoroties choose to care about will never make sense to me.
Speaking of things that used to be important, whatever happened to the Mudryk investigation over the video using the n-word?
Paramount do not show any football and are not considered a direct competitor to Sky and BT but block the deal anyways. Brilliant. Makes sense.
Paramount has uk partnership with sky sports. So pl have no choice but strike it off. Conflict of interest and preferential treatment clause. Completely understandable.
Chelsea have struck gold with these Saudi clubs wanting to buy half of their squad.
It's annoying how they are selling their dross with ease
You'd have to wonder if this will be viewed similarly to Juventus cooking the books considering Clearlake's ties to PIF, who have quite big stakes in all the rumoured clubs.
Wouldn't authorities react if Girona started buying all unwanted City players so that City could stay within their FFP limits?
This was because they wanted to make Chelsea’s season 23/24 available for download immediately and thought it would result in spoilers.
Paramount were showing every premier league game live last season from what I remember?
Think you're reading too much into it. One quick look at the players Saudi clubs have been targeting and you can see the majority are those of a Muslim background. We happen to have a fair few at our club who are also high profile players, which they have also been targeting.
And Clearlake only manage some of PIFs assets, which I don't really see what the issue is there? "ties to PIF" makes it all sound pretty sinister
FA and govt fully scrutinised the clearlake take over. FA has nothing to do with arab leagues buying Chelsea players.Think you're reading too much into it.

May be they will put new rule to stop Chelsea alone to sell players to arab league.

Oh I was just going by what it said in the article. Perhaps I’m/they’re confusing them with just Paramount then. Perhaps Chelsea should just drop the ‘plus’ and be like ‘what, paramount just make films and TV don’t they?’

We are so green and naive when it comes to these kind of activities. Hopefully a new owner changes that.
So Chelsea has three players they want (or rather need) to get rid of, and all three are wanted by three separate clubs in the Saudi league who just so happen to be owned by an investment fund that has ties to the owners of Chelsea, and you don't think that's even worth raising an eyebrow over?FA and govt fully scrutinised the clearlake take over.

Tbh, the three players in question are Muslim (as is Kante), so there's an obvious link there (given we've seen that with Benzema too). It seems part of the Saudi league strategy to raise their profile is to target European based Muslim players.
3? We've got about 30 we need to get shot of.
If there are big money Saudi bids coming in for Cucurella or Hudson-Odoi then you can put the tin-foil hat on.
Make them convert to Islam and you'll get rid of them to any of the four PIF owned clubs by pure coincidence!
Maguire is a devout Muslim.
They'll struggle to get rid of those mega contract players
Which ones? Lukaku is the only "mega contract" player we'll struggle to get rid of.
i.e. Mudryk
Why would we want to shift him? He's the young player of the season next year.
What's the odds we still can't shift Nicolas Pepe to Saudi! 
we shall seeYup, cheating is the way forward because none of the authorities give a feck, the players don’t give a feck and the broadcasters don’t give a feck. About time we just joined the like of Barca, Chelsea, city and Juve. Cheating always prospers.
Ironically if you still had him I feel Lacazette would have been one of the first players to have got an offer.What's the odds we still can't shift Nicolas Pepe to Saudi!
