Who agrees with me that Chelsea bought the title and not won it?

Answer 1

i don't agree with you chelsea are a great team if chelsea bought the title does that mean man utd did too

Answer 2

I'm a gooner thro and thro, but i'm getting tired of hearing all this 'Chelsea bought the title' talk.

Lets get facts straight before people start slagging off chelsea.
Firstly, yeah so what, they have got the money abramovic has ploughed into them, but Ranierri had the money to spend, and he failed.
Liverpool have spent money like its going out of fashion, Portsmouth have signed player after player, Spurs have spent a fortune in the past two seasons, Man Utd have always spent big in the last two years.
The point i'm trying to make, is that a lot of clubs have money to spend, but that is never going to do you any good unless you have a man who can not only spot talent, but mould it into a team. Football is a team game, and Jose Mourinho is a damn good coach. Chelsea had the rub of the green last season, but that does not distract from the fact that they where the better team, thats why they won the title. Money or no money, Mourinho will win trophies at any club he goes to.

If there is any football fan out there who would not want the same to happen with there team as has happened at Chelsea, then you are a loser.

Chelsea deserve credit for winning back to back titles, money is just the the tip of the ice berg. You still have to build a team.

If that does not make people see things a little different, then think of this one.

A team with Lampard, Gerrard, Rooney, Beckham, Ashley Cole, Rio Ferdinand, John Terry etc should have done better in the world cup, and a majority of the players played out a 0-0 draw with the world power of football from Macedonia. Thats because the manager is not up to the task. Put Mourinho, or even Wenger in charge of the England team, and results would be different, not because the players got better, but because the coach instills a team ethic into the side.

Sorry for rattling on, but credit where credit id due eh !!

Answer 3

Well yeah, you could argue they bought the title. But then again that's true of any side that spends a bit of money and has success. You can buy all the talent in the world but it doesn't follow that you'll have success. Look at Real Madrid as a prime example of that. Fact is, people are jealous of Chelsea's success in much the same way that people were jealous of Man Utd in the 90's. Simple fact with the modern game...you have to spend money to win things....you cannot buy the title...you can only put yourself in a position to challenge. The real reason for Chelsea's success.....Jose Mourinho....

Answer 4

My bf is a season ticket holder at Chelsea and has been for the past 13 years. Any team in Chelsea's situation would have done exactly the same for sure. It's pure jealousy, when Man U won the title year after year everyone hated them now it's Chelsea's turn to shine everyone hates them. Just get over it or support them yourself.

Answer 5

i am not a Chelsea fan but in this day and age even if you have the world best players in your team it does not buy you success just look at Real Madrid. so you still need a good manager who know how best to play your team, and i guess with so many BIG names and Prima Donna's in your team keeping everyone happy and on top of there game, getting these players to play great football with there over inflated wages takes a good manager. so in a way with all the great players you can go so far but to win a title only if your league is poor and as the english league is one of the toughest i would say NO Chelsea did not buy the title but worked hard for it, as Man U, Arsenel, ect could match Chelsea but choose to be senible, mind you the price Man U paid for Carrick, best deal must have been done by Newcastle when they bought Damian Duff.

Answer 6

Chelsea bought the title simple as, everyone knows that if you want to watch beautiful football pop over to North London and watch Arsenal. Arsenal won the league by playing beautiful football. Chelsea have managed to destroy a world class footballer in Schevchenko. The problem isn't the pace of the game in the premiership but the lack of creatively Chelsea posses within there negative approach to games this is why Schevchenko is struggling. He has gone from being feed by the gods i.e. Kala, to chasing down scraps from John Terry's long balls over the top.

Answer 7

In a way yes i do! I mean to spend £200million in a couple of years is outrageous! But who can question the talent of Mourinho, to bring so many world class professionals together and get them playing that well has got to be admired! After all the Premiership is the most prolific in the world and many have tried and failed!!! As for those of you who believe that Man United paid to win the league all them times could i kindly ask you to go back to your research an find out the facts! After all this was a team of outstanding young players brought together in Uniteds youth academy an was winning all youth titles before bringing their undoubted talent and skills to the senior level!!!!!!!!!!! Who was it that said "You will never win anything with kids" (Alan Hansen if i`m not mistaken) If the teams is good enough to win this league then well done!!!!!!!

Answer 8

Jealousy is making you stupid, i am an Arsenal supporter and i always want my team to win but i think Chelsea were the better team, so only biased people will agree with you, they did not just win they ran away with the title and we all Had to play catch up with Chelsea and that's the bloody truth.!!!

Answer 9

yes they probably have so did blackburn. united tried to do but the money spent by united is generated by filling there stadium and big contracts on shirt deals ect . chelsea are bank rolled by one man without him they would be nothin look what has happened to blackburn without jack walkers cash ... so you chelsea supporters watch out cos when the russian gets bored and goes to play in something else you are not a self sufficient club like the real big clubs united/liverpool/arsenal these clubs have history, all chelsea have is a rich russian FOR NOW

Answer 10

Of course they did. In reply to Man U buying it too, they are a big team who spend big, but when you look at what Man u have spent over TEN years compared to Chelsea in THREE years I think you will change your mind. Man U had a system of bringing young players through rather then buying it in all the time.
