So this weekend Chelsea got themselves another premiership. Watch my use of words here. They got one, two years in a row. That makes it two years in a row that they bought themselves the premiership. If it wasn't for the Russian billionaire who bought the damn team and spent millions of dollars on whoever plays good, there's no way would they have a premiership, let along two in two years. It's so bloody ridiculous. Some people might argue that teams like Arsenal and Manchester United also spend millions of dollars on players, but their funds came from a different source, from their history, from good performance, not because of some rich fan who decided to buy the damn team and trophies. I might sound angry, but I bet I'm not as angry as those players who Chelsea thought were not good enough and decided to let go. Also, they've bought themselves so many players, they can pretty much have two teams. There are so many players now that get very little match play, they were good in the past few seasons, but now you rarely get to see them show off their goods 'cause they're so often on the bench. Yeah, they might get themselves a premiership medal, but really, would they really feel like being part of a 'winning' team? I certainly wouldn't.
