Really simple question.

Chelsea fourth the season BEFORE Abramovich took over, second in his first season.

Yeah, sorry you're right. My mistake.

Abramovich took over in June 2003.

02/03 - 4th
03/04 - 2nd
04/05 - 1st

Safe to say if you make top four this season you'll be spending big in the summer and should challenge.

If you don't make top 4, it'll be quite the disaster for you.

And would you like that for us rag boy?

Spiros, as in why aren't we in a better position to do so given the players at our disposal.

fuck me, there's even a red putting you right on this thread..

If that was that easy Chelsea would be winning champions league every year, or Real would make an example of Barca all the time. We might not win anything before fair play rules kick in, and after that it is gonna be even harder, no biggie.

What you have quoted is correct but surely being a Man U fan it would be better of using an example of how long it took Fergie to win the league after all the money he spent

Might be because Chelsea have paid about £675m in transfer fees alone since Abramovich took over, recording a loss of just over £500m.

We since the Sheikh have spent just short of £350m on players, with a loss of about £290m.

Maybe if you gave Mancini another £325m to spend we'd win a few trophies...
