Players don't really care where the money comes from. Players will be lining up to joining Chelsea and Newcastle in the summer just like they have been joining City, PSG and Chelsea in the past.Even if nothing has really changed at Chelsea and the money is still there, I wonder if they'll struggle a bit more than usual in the transfer market, as I can't see many big name players wanting to go there for a while.
Who said anything about "a champions league regular"? I don't think it's your memory that is failing you.Were you guys a champions league regular? My memory fails me

We'd qualified for the Champions League more than once before Roman took over. Your memory is absolutely failing you!A memory that was never there can't fail you
They'd qualified once.
Quarterfinalists in 99/00 and qualified again the season before Abramovich took over.A memory that was never there can't fail you
They'd qualified once.
Yeah, like leicester.We were in the Champions League before Roman came along you silly billy.
Yes, you made up the numbers a couple of times.Quarterfinalists in 99/00 and qualified again the season before Abramovich took over.
We topped a group with the mighty AC Milan in it and Barca needed extra time and a red card to eliminate us after we won the first leg 3-1. We reached the semis the next time we qualified, but obviously Abramovich had arrived by then and it was a different team to the one that qualified the season before. Clearly we weren't CL regulars but we weren't a one and done club like Leicester eitherYes, you made up the numbers a couple of times.
Chelsea was in the top 4 of the PL 3 times before Abra (97/98, 98/99 and 02/03). Actually, it is said he was hesitating in 2003 and could have bought another club, had they failed to secure the top 4 finish at the end of the 2002/03 season.Yeah, like leicester.
Mayhe I should've said Spurs, at least Leicester won the PL do you remember which clubs he was considering at the time?Chelsea was in the top 4 of the PL 3 times before Abra (97/98, 98/99 and 02/03).

I think they were better than Leicester. They won a European Cup in 98.
According to Sven-Goran Eriksson whom he consulted at the time, he wanted to buy a club in Russia and make it a superpower in Europe, but after looking at the infrastructure Sven told him to turn to Europe's big leagues instead. Then he said London would be the only place for him. (Probably a much safer city for dirty money??).Mayhe I should've said Spurs, at least Leicester won the PL do you remember which clubs he was considering at the time?
City wore shirts.Chelsea and City have to be sanctioned or better banned.
Chelsea for obvious reasons and city because uae did not vote against russia in the un.
Is that the one where Ronaldinho played out of his skin and turned the whole thing?We topped a group with the mighty AC Milan in it and Barca needed extra time and a red card to eliminate us after we won the first leg 3-1.

That was 2004/2005 - Ronaldinho was still at Gremio in 99/00.Is that the one where Ronaldinho played out of his skin and turned the whole thing?
Before his time. That one was during the Rivaldo/Figo era.Is that the one where Ronaldinho played out of his skin and turned the whole thing?

Haha it was a genuine question, as I couldn't remember where Chelsea were pre Abramovic!A memory that was never there can't fail you
They'd qualified once.
Nah this was a couple of years before Ronaldinho's time. Figo, Rivaldo, Kluivert etc were in that Barca team.Is that the one where Ronaldinho played out of his skin and turned the whole thing?
In other words, ‘Excuse me, Sir. Would you mind holding this bag of drugs and cash for me whilst the Police search me? Thanks’
Past being taken away I really think this hurts Chelsea in terms of sponsorship etc. companies are dropping Russian sponsors never mind a club owned by an actual oligarch who is trying to snake out of this situation with stunts like this.Brilliant this I give you my team but I still control it..
We've known who Roman is since he took over. Any "holy shit" was expressed two decades ago.Past being taken away I really think this hurts Chelsea in terms of sponsorship etc. companies are dropping Russian sponsors never mind a club owned by an actual oligarch who is trying to snake out of this situation with stunts like this.
I’m shocked at the lack of holy shit coming from their fanbase.
Holy Shit opponent fan’s are losing their shit! Let me know when our sponsors leave.Past being taken away I really think this hurts Chelsea in terms of sponsorship etc. companies are dropping Russian sponsors never mind a club owned by an actual oligarch who is trying to snake out of this situation with stunts like this.

I’m not talking about the past but moving forward. This is probably good news in keeping Roman on as owner by the scorn of people already seeing through this should hurt your commercial pockets. How can sponsors etc not drop out now?We've known who Roman since he took over. Any "holy shit" was expressed two decades ago.
It’s only been two days and Roman has already had to hide his ownership from being seized.Holy Shit opponent fan’s are losing their shit! Let me know when our sponsors leave.
Because all they care about is money. We'll see I guess, how many sponsors drop out.I’m not talking about the past but moving forward.

That’s all we can do I suppose. Good luck today anyway, take the scousers down with you!Because all they care about is money. We'll see I guess, how many sponsors drop out.
Firstly the tweet quote doesn't match the content of the article. Which doesn't present evidence Abramovich is connected to the Russian government and responsible in any way for Ukraine...Tweet

I can out scholarly this guy with a two second google!!
Years before Putin took office. Don’t believe everything on the internet. Even moreso on Twitter.Boris Yeltsin
In 1999, the 33-year-old Abramovich was elected governor of the Russian province of Chukotka. He ran for a second term as governor in 2005.
Ooh - No links at all between Putin and Abramovic then. If he gets sanctioned it’ll be exactly like Jews in Nazi Germany. Cheers for correcting me.I can out scholarly this guy with a two second google!!

Your tweet was crap and misinformation. You’re welcomeOoh - No links at all between Putin and Abramovic then. If he gets sanctioned it’ll be exactly like Jews in Nazi Germany. Cheers for correcting me.
Ooh, a twitter thread from someone claiming to be an expert and not presenting any actual evidence and who asks to be hired at the end of it..... Abramovich used to be involved in Russian politics, he hasn't been for years and there isn't any evidence he is now. Just hearsay and conjecture from morons like this guy!
