      I’ve noticed that I’ve often found myself cheering for Liverpool to win the league this season, even though I didn’t expect to. Out of the three teams competing, I think Liverpool is the most classy. Their fans have been down-to-earth and not boastful, unlike the fans of the other teams.

      What surprises me is that Liverpool has had a lot of injuries to important players, but they’re still leading the league and have a good chance of winning. I think their manager, Klopp, should be named the best manager in the league. I don’t think the other two managers could have done as well with the challenges Liverpool has faced, especially with so many young players on the team.

        Very strange for Klopp to come out and complain about Chelseaโ€™s financial muscle, when he went for Caicedo and made a bid of ยฃ111M which is ยฃ31M more than Chelsea were prepared to pay, only to be rejected by the player, and after bidding ยฃ60m for Lavia, which is 12M of what Chelsea were prepared, only to be rejected by the player. I saw him moan about the Chelsea financial muscle in his press conference.

          Ed,

          People are talking about the Billion Chelsea has spent, but are also turning blind eye when it comes to sales Chelsea has been making in the last few years. that is the kind of hypocrisy i was talking about, i have to question why do the preimier league/Eufa always talk about closing the loophole in the same rule they made when ever Chelsea spends? I think Boehly is not stupid to just spend only. There is a reason why he is a billionaire.

            FFFP Was always a ploy to stop City and Chelsea from becoming successful, and we know who drafted it. A classic example is when a certain team bids a player for ยฃ111M for a player, that is fine, but when Chelsea bid for him the same amount, that is a breach of FFFP? If that is not hypocrisy, then I don’t know what is. Not criticising Liverpool, as they saw and an opportunity to strengthen a position they need to strengthen, and they tried it. Fair play to the player for opting to join Chelsea. Then you see ex players criticizing him for choosing his career and happiness over the hype.

            The money Chelsea paid for Caicedo is crazy, and i’m not happy as a Chelsea fan, because it is paying over the odds for his market value. But, i can understand why Chelsea would do that, because the situation has changed. I’m not also conviced on Lavia, i would have loved that money to be channelled to use for siginng another striker. we seem to be short in that department.

              Whatever happens from now and then, Arsenal had a fantastic season and will be a role model to teams who are in a slump like Chelea and Liverool. Arsenal are the real winners of this season, and with the core of their squad and manager being young players, they will dominate the league for years to come.

                Looks like clubs are testing our ability to keep our best players. There are reports that suggested, that United, Liverpool, City, and Barcelona are looking for Mason Mount, the reports indicate those clubs want to take advantage of his low wages at Chelsea. Mason Mount is our best player, and he is a Cobham academy graduate, we need to keep him at all costs, even if it means breaking our salary structure. he is worth it, at 23 he has his best years ahead of him. and after rival clubs ridiculed us for not promoting youth within, to lose him to rial is terrible. he is a future Chelsea captain.

                Other reports are also suggesting that City and Real Madrid are also looking for Reece James. the reports suggest that City in particular is eying Reece James as a potential replacement for Walker. Again that should never happen in a million years. Reece James like Mason Mount is our future and is an academy graduate. The new owners have a few issues to solve.

                  The issue isnโ€™t about the racism row of their father. there are other reasons that we should stay clear of these Rickets family. I was reading that they are politically related to Donald Trump (Former U.S president) who is facing multiple scandals at the moment. I was reading that the Rickets family have been one of his biggest campaign donors, picture this the media wonโ€™t miss the opportunity to ask Thomas Tuchel questions related to that subject, and the last we would want is Thomas Tuchel answering questions related to Trumpโ€™s politics. In that sense, I want us to stay clear of them. I think Todd Beohly is the best person to own the club, I wouldnโ€™t care about that Spurs fan, that is a lesser problem than, the baggage that the Rickets family are carrying.

                  Whoever the owner of our club is will set the precedent for our club and how it will be seen globally. Because football is a global issue as we have millions of fans around the globe, I wouldnโ€™t want our club to be seen as a club that stands for discrimination, when Roman spent considerable resources and time-fighting discrimination. My hope is, that the U.K government will listen to the fans, we are heading into dangerous waters if the club doesnโ€™t listen to the fans. I remember the former Liverpool owners and how they have made Liverpool suffer and the fan unrest that distracted the club. We are also witnessing how the Glazers are making United suffer.

                  Iโ€™m not feeling comfortable at the moment with these Rickets family. My preference was the Saudis, if they are rejected, then Todd Beohly all day long for me. Iโ€™m not buying their apology and their PR meetings with Paul Canoville. There are more to this than meets the eye.

                    I’m more worried about the Ricketts family whom I was reading are receiving preferential treatment from some senior figures at the club. I was reading that Bruce Buck have organised a meeting for them to meet the Chelsea Supporters Trust to convince them. I’m not sure if that could be blindfolding them or clear the air talks. But this could have a negative long term impact to the club. Because Chelsea is a multi race, Multi religion club. I’m anxious about this process.

                      Seems that the Chelsea fans have left the house since the sanctions. I would like to know how far the bids have gone. since the deadline for the bids, now news from it. at one stage I was reading a consortium led byTodd Boehly is leading, then came Rickets Family who I’m against.

                      In other news, Roman was poisoned in Kyiv, plenty is going around. hopefully, this sale process goes as smoothly as possible.

                        Again there is nowhere I have shown support or said Roman shouldn’t be sanctioned. my case was for my beloved Chelsea. and as a fan, I have every right to express my frustration. so it will be good if we stop misleading posts.

                          Sean,

                          I’m only expressing my individual opinion. who doesn’t benefit from a referring decision in this league?

                            Just wondering why do people raise the topic of refereeing standards every time Chelsea is alleged to have a decision in our favour. But people are nowhere to be seen when Chelsea is the victim?

                              I have seen this article today, itโ€™s a very interesting article that sheds light on the Saudi Media group and their plans for the club.

                                Personally, I’m supporting City for the title and United for the top 4. both teams are facing stiff challenges this season. but their experience will count.

                                  Forget about Arsenal, if I was you, I would be more confident about the top 4 now than ever before. United have that decider game with Arsenal. if they win that match, then you have every chance to take that fourth spot. Arsenal, have Spurs, Liverpool, Chelsea and United. 3 of those game in hand are Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs. and they have an inform Leicester tomorrow. I can see past United for this fourth spot. United’s experience will be vital in this battle.

                                    One thing is always a surety, United will always beat Spurs no matter which state they are in. Spurs were looking for counter-attacking, and United was very aware of that. And Ronaldo was another level today. If United can play like that from now on the rest of the season. Fourth place is United’s to lose.

                                      That is a very good step in the right direction. Although i feel, the UK government should have take this approach before the sanctions came into effect but anyway, i hope this sale is completed on time. Many rival fans are rejoicing with our tirbulations. But the dooner this ends, the better for the club.

                                        Also, I assume there are civil liberties in the U.K that protects the freedom of expression and speech. so those fans have their right to exercise, but personally, I don’t agree with chanting during the Ukraine tributes. let’s hope an amicable solution is found before more trouble comes.

                                          I don’t agree with the Roman chanting, and I have stated clear where I stand from this Ukraine war. Thomas Tuchel has also stated his stand and rebuked the fans. but we don’t control what they do, even the Chelsea supporters group have asked them to stop these chants.

                                            That is not how I see. nobody is mourning about Roman facing sanctions. but the issue that many quartets had is how the UK government handled it, especially after Roman stated that he will not benefit from the sale of Chelsea, but still went ahead thrown Chelsea into chaos. if the reason for these sanctions is to prevent Roman from benefiting from this sale, then the U.K Government could have taken charge of the sale and still allowed the sale to go ahead.

                                            coming back to Klopp, it’s very clear that he is looking from the perspective of a competitor. he should have been diplomatic, but the fact that he came out to show support at a time when the wounds are still fresh, shows the true intention of his words.
