they've won more in the time of the money than they had in their entire history up to that point.
When we were taken over, Chelsea had won 2 titles and a few domestic cups. The rags had won 2 in a row and a champions league and were about to add their third title in a row. When we won our first title, the rags had 4 of the last 5 and Chelsea had 3 in 9 years. Even now after years of the rags being shit, they've still won as many leagues as Chelsea since RA took over (as have we if we win this season). If it wasn't for us, the rags would have two more titles and would be on course to win another.since 2003-04 season when Abramovich started spending they've won 16

I reckon Chelsea would have been the club to get our players and would have dominated without our investment, although you can't legislate for Abramovich going mental either.When we were taken over, Chelsea had won 2 titles and a few domestic cups.

Doubt it. Only players we've beaten them to were Robinho and Stones. Rags lost out on as many.I reckon Chelsea would have been the club to get our players and would have dominated without our investment
you find it very difficult to get off the oh but look at the rags type arguments don't youhow many more trophies had the rags won than us before fergie turned up and spent a fortune?
it says it right there - Chelsea won more trophies than anyone. It's in an article with a graph. I don't know how much more I can do for you fella
you're missing my point. Had we not got the investment - i reckon a lot of the players we ended up with would have ended up at Chelsea because they had the money to outbid the rags etcDoubt it. Only players we've beaten them to were Robinho and Stones. Rags lost out on as many.
from 2003 to 2010 - when we won our first trophy - they won 8 domestic titles. they interrupted a 2 team league at the time really and upset the apple cart in a big way. There was an awful amount of vitriol towards them and the money too.That graph is from the takeover in 2003 until 2019.
You were talking about from the 2003 takeover until we came along and started spending.
