Yeah, even ignoring FFP, in normal circumstances you would expect this strategy to be biting them in the arse in the not to distant future, then the fucking Saudi life raft sailed I to port.

The problem isn't really that they're going to run out of money or get in trouble with UEFA or something.

The problem is that they have a dog's breakfast of a squad that doesn't add up to a coherent team and they have no flexibility to fix things and make them right the way their manager wants to.

Since the arrival of Boehly about 20 months ago, Chelsea have spent 800m and bought 20 players. I have never seen anything like it, even from the oligarch teams.

I know they’ve stretch the contracts but surely there’s going to be an FFP issue? They haven’t even got CL revenue, massively inflated sponsorship of big stadium.

Probably massive money laundering of some kind.
