At the end of Chelsea's match report tonight on the BBC is this quite bizarre paragraph.
"In fact, a report from the Transferroom website suggested that Chelsea's squad, valued at £1.1bn, is worth as much as the Conference League's other 35 team combined.
They are, therefore, strong favourites to claim glory in Europe this season. That estimated squad value is nothing for the Blues to be ashamed of - but merely highlights how European football is changing with England's top flight dominant, especially when facing teams from outside the continent's big five leagues."
I look forward to the same friendly editorial leanings when we next play a "minnow".
