The whole Chelsea approach, perhaps even with Bates but certainly Abramovich onwards ahs brought the whole game into a state of affairs that has ended up here, its not just on them but a large portion of their spend spend tactic is where I believe this all stems from.Makes me chuckle the arrogance Boehly and co had to be in football for five minutes and think they’d found this genius amortisation loophole to unlock more spending. As if no one else in football would have thought about the idea and discounted doing it for very obvious reasons.
Sadly their "bought" success did work for a while but now the hens coming home to roost and we all face the consequences.
Said before, but the bubble has burst.
Maybe its what it needed?
