As a Chelsea fan I'm not to worried regarding the Visa issue with Roman, it's just petty politics and money always talks and Roman is ridiculously rich. I'm pretty sure that would be sorted soon
The thing that concerns me as a Chelsea fan is on the football side of things, we don't seem to have a clue on what we are doing. The problem for me is our board is filled with business people, there's no person on that board that truly understands how football works and has footballing background.
We had a shocking transfer window last year, our transfer dealings were absolutely horrific. We loaned out RLC and sold Chalobah for 5 million and replaced them with Bakayoko and Drinkwater who cost almost 80 million. We also missed out on almost all our first choice targets and went into complete panic mode. There seemed to be no clear plan on what we were doing.
We also went into complete panic mode the Summer before but got lucky due to our panic signings in Alonso and Luiz turning out to be good buys and being able to get Kante on the cheap. Then you have Mourinho's last season with us when we failed to sign our first choice targets and started randomly trying to throw money around, we also made a huge mess trying to sign John Stones and completely failed trying to sign him.
I could be totally wrong but I feel Marina Granovskaia is a big problem for us right now. Our problems with transfers and everything else seemed to start when she became Chief Executive. I've heard stories that she's notoriously hard to deal with and goes about things with an iron fist.
While she's shown she is great when it comes to selling players and brokering sponsorship deals, she's also shown that she doesn't have a clue and appears to rub people up the wrong way when it comes to signing players. Like I said before in this post, she has literally no background in football and no experience or understanding on how it works.
Right now we have no idea what's happening with Conte, we still have no idea who our manager will be and we've made an absolute mess with this Sarri situation that could potentially be taken to court. We just seem to be making an absolute mess out of anything we try to do
Oh yeah, we still haven't even got a DOF either
