Roman Abramovich = Football #1 public enemy
OK. I’m a Gooner – so I know that I’ll be a little bit biased but today I think that I read the death knell of Uk football competitiveness.
Buried deep within the transfer rumours today was an announcement that Chelsea are about to offer an astonishing £70m in order to land AC Milan midfielder Kaka.
DiarioSport claim that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is determined to land the Brazilian star, and will double any Real Madrid bid to sign the mercurial South American.
That’s right £70m for ONE player?!! Simply preparing to pay double whatever Real Madrid offer?!!
In Eastern European countries we often see a single side winning 10 league titles is a row – as they are favoured by a monied ogliarchy and are on a completely different level to the rest.
It’s not good for football in any shape or form – when the balance of power is tilted so dramatically – via non football methods.
If this report is true then Chelsea are now officially in a league of one … and the Premier League is actually just 19 teams playing for second place.
The Abramovich man must be stopped by UEFA this season.
In the meantime if you want to make a cast iron 50% profit in 9 months that is surer than any financial hedge fund then nip down to your local bookie and put your house on Chelsea to win the Premier League.
