For me, the Chelsea revolution helped liven up the Premiership when only U****d and Arsenal looked set to win the title. Even further investment has now led to the most open title race in years.
Completely agree with this, its a fact that the league is now far more exciting than was ever the case during the early 'naughties' when it was the same old 4 getting to the top table season in season out. Now we are in the healthier position of there being arguably 7 clubs with a realistic shout for the Champions League places and some of the reason for that is clearly the investments made at Chelski, City, Spuds to a lesser extent not to mention the financial restraint forced upon both Arsenal and nited by their owners and the gradual decline of Liverpool as a major force. Long may it continue as far as I am concerned and I will also be quite happy when another club gets a slice of the cherry as well!
Indeed. It's a league players the world over want to play in and the competitiveness is a MAJOR part of that. It's the reason why Swansea can now draw and sign halfway decent players at all, so he should be pleased as punch that owners dump money into their clubs, be they top 4 billionaires or mid table millionaires, because it all helps add to the prestige of the league that Swansea now play in. Swansea are in Europa now for god's sake! Things are working out for them! We even gave them all of that cash for free a few years back! Oh.. I mean they threw in Scott Sinclair, but basically it was a gift. Point is he needs to love those money pumping owners. Love love love.
