It's maddening seeing what Bohely and Co. are doing to this team.


To look at the amount of money we have spent and then look at the starting XIs we are putting out is borderline inconceivable. We are all prone to hyperbole but it's impossible to understate how badly the current regime has butchered every decision they've made and what they've done to this club.

It’s a real possibility. At this rate I can’t see us getting more than 15 points.


That’s absurd. This team has struggles but they aren’t getting relegated.

41 points from the last 38 games. could easily argue the sqaud is worse than when Potter took charge.

This isn’t the same squad as last year. We’ve had like 60% of the players turn over.

yes, and you could argue its not as strong a squad. the performance so far this season has shown no real change from the same issues as last year anyway. we cant score goals. the one thing you need to do to win.

You mean spending all our money on defensive mids wasn't the answer to scoring goals?

How we didn't spend $100M+ on a world class striker through all of this is ludicrous.

And Lavia injured before even playing game. Sounds like out 4-6 weeks. Glad we didn’t sell Gallagher now.

No posts on Bournemouth match kind of like our lack of goals.

I didn’t watch bc I knew 100% it would end 0-0, 0-1 or 0-2 Bournemouth. I’ve been given 0 reasons to expect any goals

$1B spent and still no elite goal scorer. It’s pretty impressive actually.

I went and spent $10 on Fifa 17. A solid Chelsea team and a solid year for Fifa.

Goal scorer is the most glaring omission but you could fill in pretty much any position after "no elite" and still be accurate.

I’m legitimately thinking we may be in the relegation zone in 6 weeks.

I'm trying to look at the long-term financial play and I'm not seeing it.

Acquire young talent, mold them, train them, create value then sell? I'm not seeing it with the acquisition costs.

Amortize contracts for the long term?

Maybe it's a real estate play? The buyout was just confirmed for the expansion and redevelopment of Stamford Bridge.

No idea. These financials are way over my head.
