    Even though Chelsea have all the money now i dont grudge them it.Even though i dislike them it wasnt that in the mid ninties till the middle of this decade that Man United,Arsenal,Liverpool and a whole host of english clubs where spending more than them and European teams have been doing it for years. Man U dominated England when they where buying left right and centre.Arsenal bought well and won 3 titles and Liverpool spent well and won the champions league and now its Chelsea's turn.

    The rest raised their money though through the success of their football team, not through one mega-rich owner.

    But it was through their success on the football field they got their money to spend.

    My argument though is that they earned their money through their football.

    I'm not saying that they didn't spend money.

    i agree, they progressed from winning competitions, which then allowed them to go and spend the money they had earned. chelsea though got countless injections before winning anything, so i think their sucess is not as worthy of praise/recognition as the liverpool/man u/ arsenals.

    You'd think with all the money Chelsea have they'd at least be able to have a good playing surface...that pitch was a disgrace to Champions league footballWhats the point of having a great team if theyre expected to play on that.

    chelsea is very good team (very boring although)
    but, it has to be said - that is airtight team
    but barcelona is genial and i was delighted watching how beautiful football can be ...
