The common fallacy rolled out by Chelsea fans is that they were successful before the money from Roman Abramovich arrived. That is true, however what they don't say is that the success was purely based on the hundreds of millions ploughed in by Matthew Harding RIP. He put that much money into the club that they named a stand after him. So they began their success story with Matthew's money.
As for the game , if you play a top team you have to have your best 11 available, Chelsea did, but we had 3 missing. Nasri, Aguerro and Ferny who have been our best 3 players this season.
As for Edin he was poor but so were many more, some worse than him.
I would not let him go until we have a better replacement and the jury is still out on Jovetic. He did his part in our Championship winning year, Edin is a good player.
