Bromage Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Whatever the story behind these rich Arabs at Eastlands, how does it make you feel when other clubs are battling for the best players and we're not? Is it a lack of ambition or funds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AE Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 (edited) Really really ****ed off.Its not about the "sign big names" but at least we can compete and Rafa can build a team he wants rather than one limited by the American *****ers Edited September 1, 2008 by AE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogman Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Ain't too bothered.As Chelsea found out, anybody can throw large amounts of cash at players, and putting in silly bids, it's a different kettle of fish actually getting the player to join.For all Chelsea's money, they haven't really got a big named player.QPR are the most cash rich club on paper, but they'll never in a million years get Kaka.

Exactly, Mike. It's not about spending big money on big names. It's about the fact that the club is now in the hands of a pair of jokers who don't appreciate the need to support the manager in bringing it players of the appropriate quality; the one time they did, he brought in Torres. I've never regarded Rafa as a manager who wants to buy the big names, as he proved at Valencia, but given the backing he can build a quality team to compete on a lower budget.

Chelsea did manage to sign Shevchenko, Drogba, Essien and Ballack amongst others, players they would not have got before Ambromovic.They have also won two titles.The cash has certainly transformed them as a club.
