As a Chelsea fan I'm very optimistic about the new owners. That first summer window was very directionless and we we're scrambling to replace key players that the previous ownership let go for free. But since Potter and the new recruitment staff have come in our signings have been very encouraging. All young, technical players that suit the style of play Potter wants to play and in positions the team needed replaced. Now its just a matter of getting rid of the deadwood. We may still be 10th but once the injured players return and the new signings bed in I'm very confident results will massively improve in the back half of the season
You just spoke like every typical Chelsea fan. Yes, your recruitment has improved from last summer. But your contract situation might come in to bite you in the back. You're signing these young players 8 year contracts to escape football financial law, but footballoing wise, it is detrimenta. Potter is a long-term manager. But he wont be there for 8-9 years. So what happens when he leaves and another manager comes in and demand new players only to find he has 11-15 players on long contracts with huge wages that you can barely move on? You will get results. But I feel you just went from one Abramovich to another with more money. and it will come full circle all over again.
@@denniswaweru9340Potter is known for building solid foundation. Look at Brighton, did De Zerbi have difficult time taking over that squad? You a creating problems where there isnt one. Plus how do you know what will happen in 6 years?
@@denniswaweru9340 It's not like our new players are shite, they're the real deal and any manager who cames won't demand a better players than our new attackers, if there's any in the market. About Potter, he's here to stay about 3 seasons atleast weather we don't like him or not, Boehly said he's a long term manager.
@@denniswaweru9340 this window, the young players signed on long contracts are all on under 100k/w - not sure where you got "huge wages" from. Fofana and Cucurella are the only players on pretty large wages, but they are seen as "the next generation" here. the new signings will have no negotiating power for ~6 years, and should they want to leave, these wages aren't difficult for other clubs to match. The recruitment (spearheaded by Vivell) this window has been good, every young player we have signed has immediately walked into our first team and looked great - meaning that should they want to leave in a few years, we should be able to sell them for large profit (assuming they keep developing). Summer will see many outgoings, lowering the wage bill too. As much as I dislike the yanks, they are doing a great job at running the club; better than Roman in recent years.
@@denniswaweru9340 The difference is when we changed managers before it often led to a complete shift in playing style. Now even if potter leaves in 2-3 years time he'll have instilled a baseline from which the next manager can build off. Look at Brighton now, De Zerbi hasn't needed time to bed in his style or to bring in 8 new players because his style is so similar to Potter that the players already get it.
As a football club owner Abramovich is definitely up there w the best in terms of results on the pitch. He created a superpower in English football with what Chelsea managed to achieve, its insane to see what has happened this season to them
One thing I’ll love and miss was you can tell he was a fan. Not a “I hope my business is doing well” fan but a true blue through and through. Look at his reaction to Drogba’s goal against Bayern. Looks like a 6 year old feeling pure joy. He was always at games and he always cared about the club. I honestly think that’s why he was so hair trigger with managers because he just couldn’t stand to see Chelsea lose.
It's an adjustment season for them. New owners, new players, new coaches, etc. It's a rebuild and they'll be back next season. Also this channel admin says they haven't won the league in a couple of decades which is false. They literally won it in the 2016-17 season. They also recently won the UCL. An incompetent yut he is. People can't even Google search these days
@@kieranmcmahon1745 Tifo feels very corporate nowadays, since they got acquired by the athletic. This channel on the other has much more passion in it, and the feeling that it's made by a real football fan, and not by a company.
Been a Chelsea fan for 20years now, (since I was 10). And here's my take on the current situation. Tbh, this is due to the accumulation of several problems all along these years. First sign of trouble was the 2nd appointment of Jose Mourinho. I love JM but his 2nd spell at Chelsea actually hurt the club more than those two trophies he won. His team burnt out quickly in 2016 and was rebuilt by Conte afterwards. After that, most of the issues were actually due to the transfer board, who not only failed to replace 2017 departures (JT, DC19, Matic) but also made some atrocious signings (Drinwater, Bakayoko, Morata etc.) The next season, they signed J5 and Kepa for a combined €140m, who never lived up to their price tags especially in the Prem. The board had no clue whether their targets can fit in well in EPL. Then Pulisic, Werner, Havertz, the same case. The club had no real playmaker but yet they chose to sell Tomori, Guehi, Tammy and bought Lukaku. Tuchel wasn't good with the transfers either so it backfired extremel quickly. One year later, Rudiger and Christensen left on free transfers, making the decision of selling Tomori and Guehi even worse. Then they went out to buy Fofana, Koulibali and Cucurella for another 150m. Anddd now they're 10th in the league cus there's simply not enough quality in the team. Mismanagement at its best. I hope the new sporting director realizes those issues and fixes them right away.
Chelsea's transfer success really started to downturn after Emenalo left which was after the 16/17 title win, transfers have been very hit and miss since then as the only directors running the club were cech and marina with no dedicated recruitment head or sporting/technical director beyond those two. This is something the new board have identified and have decided must be fixed straight away and their efforts already look like bearing fruit with mudryk and badiashile looking quality with more to come.
I just cant see how jorginho is a failure for us, Compare his buy to bakayoko and drinkwater. Regular starter for 5 years, balondor contender, cl and european champion as a starter and metronome That is a good buy
You're easily my favourite football channel at the moment. Clever, objective and witty. Cheers ! Wish you'd make videos about foreign leagues or clubs more often though.
@@Browne7100 I am not even an Everton fan ,but even I know Everton has more league titles and football heritage than Chelsea, you clown. Chelsea was a small club until oil owners came knocking the door. You are just Glory hunter plastic fan.
@@unkown981 You know that, there were times, where the traditional big six didn't exist right? Blackburn Rovers, Leeds and Sunderland were still big back in the days. Just because Everton aren't as successful as they were during the 1960's, doesn't mean we can disregard their history. Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham back 30 years ago, weren't considered among the 'big six', were they now? The only Big Six clubs that stayed somewhat consistent were Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United. Just look at Everton's trophy cabinet, ffs
When I became a Chelsea fan in the mid 90s they hadn't won a domestic league title in decades, but were pushing their way up the table, embodied by a "everybody does his job and can trust the guys around him to do theirs" which went from the volunteer supporters who were caring for the pitch all the way up through the club's paid staff, players on the pitch (Dennis Wise would be the public mascot of this attitude), coaches and front office management. By the end of the decade, there were a couple FA cups, and a Cup Winners' cup, but the aging stadium was a millstone around the club's neck, and a big infusion of capital was needed to maintain the upward trajectory, and the league still seemed a big reach. And that's when Abramovich stepped in. He fired a successful manager who had taken the team from mid table mediocrity to challenging for European places each year, just because Jose Mourinho was available for enough money, which he had. That manager would go on to finally win a Premier League with Leicester city during a season in which 3-5 Chelsea regular first 11 players visibly played at 70% effort or worse for half a season to get a manager they disliked fired - that manager being Jose Mourinho, of course. Abramovich brought with him a social disease common to people who lie, cheat and steal to get great fortunes; the belief that short cuts to hard work are justifiable by success. They're not. That said; that 2005-6 team and the UCLs are worth some of the character rot, but that doesn't mean I don't notice the smell.
@@FootballIconic It was unreal watching Hazard, Fabregas and several others jog around the pitch as Ranieri and LCFC looked more like pre-Abramovich CFC than anything we'd seen since, and taking it to the league title. I would suggest that if Potter is on his way out, the club could do worse than bringing Ranieri back in, even at his age, just to renew the pre-Abramovich CFC ethic. That plus American investment banker money could keep CFC at the very top indefinitely. or until the untimely collapse of neoliberal capitalism.
@@evanerys I totally disagree with you. Just because Ranieri did food back those days doesn't mean he can win the UCL for Chelsea. It's totally a different era here.
Well interesting take, I became a Famous CFC fan way way back in feb 1970, My uncle was a QPR fan, and we drew them in the FA Cup quarter finals at loftus road. We won 4 - 2, and that was that , much to my uncles despair i decided to support the famous CFC, and of course we went on to win the FA Cup against leeds in probably one of the most gruelling, ill tempered finals ever. And along the years, have lived through some dark times, especialy when were in the old Div 2 and losing to wrexham, shrewsbury, etc etc, but there have always been bright times also, when we had pat nevin, graham stuart, kerry dixon, john spencer, The 90`s started and we were average at best, but by 1995 when Hoddle came in, that was the beginning of where we are now, and bit by bit we grew,then gullitt and the brilliant Vialli (RIP) came in and suddenly we were starting to get somewhere, FA cups, European cup winners cup,and the buzz around the bridge at the time was electric, The fans could feel something was going to happen, then Ranieri, who did brilliantly, got us a 2nd place finish to Arsenal, Then Abramovich arrived and brought in Mourinho, brought in some class players and at last league success. Now whatever your take on Abramovich and oil and all that, It was his input that got us champions league victories, FA Cups, League Cups, Europa leagues, Yes we got things wrong, but also did a lot of things right, and to keep challenging for everything for 18 years is some achievement. Now we have Boehly and the moneys got ridiculous, but it is what it is, and he`s putting his money where his mouth is, overhauling a squad thats become stale and lifeless, and we`ve bought well, players for positions, and looking to the long term, obviously such a rebuild albeit they`ve done it faster than anyone could have anticipated, will take time and patience and belief. Its a far cry from the olde days of the 70s and 80s , but CFC are still here and still fighting. KTBFFH
The last 5 years of Abramovich were shambolic. Attacking signings who fit the system of our managers and proper squad building were both ignored because we were good in tournament competitions and those trophies papered over huge cracks despite us being terrible in the Premier League during this time Boehly's consortium is addressing these problems. The management team is a sporting director away from being complete and fully fleshed out, as opposed to how it was before whereby it was just Granovskaia and Cech who each had their own flaws in their roles This management team are involving the manager heavily in all transfers which is sending us down the route of buying potential diamonds in the rough like Badiashile for low-ish fees. This is cost-effective, it addresses key problems in the team and it means there's less risk of catastrophic flops like Lukaku and Havertz
Badiashille’s fee wasn’t “low-ish” that was a steal. There are academy products with one loan going for 20million these days. I agree with everything you said here though.
Except they are buying 20+ players that will have to learn a new system that does not exists because potter didnt have one and didnt even have time to produce one because now he's out. They kicked the only manager with a vision and motivation we've had since Mourinho and proceeded to buy every player in the fan's wishlist without ever stopping to think if compulsively buying new players has ever worked for a club. Spoiler: it hasn't.
For all Potter fan, i think we should praise Brighton scout more. They have been buying random wonderkids for ages, now many of them are star. Its more like club policy instead of personal achievements. I commenting this cause people keep saying Potter is good at lay down the good foundation but aside from Brighton, he aint got any achievements in his résumé.
The summer window had no plan as it was last minute. But our January window has been one of the best if not the best transfer window we have had in years, I’m optimistic with our new recruitment team and board making great decisions!
Good to see you again Tinashe. Make a video on Rashford and his journey thus far. He has been a beasttt after returning from the world cup. One of the best post world cup players rn imo
Chelsea's crisis is absolutely normal. The club changed completely in every aspect just months ago. The club didnt even have a sport's director at the last summer. It's not a crisis. It's just : a restaurant change his owner, the last one leave with all the staff, even the tables and the kitchen, it's normal that the firsts months with the new owner are a building site. My opinion is : we CANNOT judge Chelsea's new owner before the next season.
The didn't took "all the staff, even the tables and the kitchen" The management of the restaurant changed, not the players (the cooks), the kitchen (the infrastructure) and the tables (400 million in transfers). It's abysmal to be 10ths after half the season is over. Especially because half that squad has won the CL 2 years ago.
Chelsea are once again the underdogs. As a fan I like that… I’m happy that Egbhali and Todd Boehly are adding more modern methodologies and are making full use of the FFP loophole before it closes. We have done recruitment that will speed up our rebuild by two seasons. We are getting for our top targets which is something fresh
Happy that they´re taking advantage of a FFFP loophole? I´d be embarrased to be happy with my club spending 500 million aimlessly and just fucking up the market whilst having no results ton show for it. Clubs like Chelsea are everything that´s wrong with football nowadays.
@@stefandinu6389 well they are, people keep saying they don’t know what they’re doing they don’t have a plan and keep making up different scenarios of Chelsea’s downfall
I feel like I must say that since finding this amazing channel 1 year ago it has been outstanding the jump in quality since then as I keep finding myself checking every 2 days for a new video to watch, so keep it up! ❤
Ive got to say, thank you for this video. It's really nice to watch a video not loaded with agenda. You just spit facts and sprinkle on your opinion, but never try to sell your opinion as fact. Best football channel by far. I'll always be grateful for Tuchel with what he did, however normally he tenure is sold as far more successful then it was. He won the champions league soon after joining which is no small feat, but after that he lost 3 finals and didn't challenge for the title. We were too reliant (and still are) on Chillwell and James and when they go down we have nothing to fall back on. He didn't have anything other than 343 so when the players werent there he was limited.
Authority is lacking from Potter. I remember Arsenal being very bad last year, but one thing which was universal was Arteta's authority. He told the team who is the boss. He disciplined his team well. Potter needs to show authority. Zero room for indiscipline... See Ten Hag for eg. Rashford at the peak of his powers. But, benched for being late. That's showing authority. Team automatically respects you more as there are no favorites.
As long as Potter doesn't get sacked I believe in the project, the pivot away from big contracts in exchange for performance based ones is a smart move, we've struggled with having players undeserving of their contracts for years, i.e. Lukaku, Drinkwater, Bakayoko etc.
Chelsea is so strange that I wouldn't put it past them to make a deep push into the Champions League this season (dependent on Reece James and Kante being healthy). I swear this season has all the remnants of 2012 written on all over it.
I mean if Kante and their wingers start playing out of their mind like they once did in 2021 season then there is a real possibility that Chelsea might bring home another Champions League trophy again. Nobody think that there is a possibility of Chelsea winning the 2021 UCL but yet here we are.
People tend to question things they can't understand but as a Red Sox fan and with Boehly's LA Dodgers as one of our biggest rivals I can testament that he's not just a clueless overspender. Dude know how to run a sports club. Compared to Granovskaia, yes, Maria was a superb negotiator, arguably the best in the business, she can have the praise but I can't question someone who already proved that he can run and rebuild a sports team like Todd Boehly as the owner. Everyone are laughing when Boehly is chasing for that "superstar" to build around but here's a thing, he also traded for one of my favorite players, Mookie Betts. A former MVP. And it didn't even last long, they won a title. He's also a co-owner of the Lakers and they won a championship in 2020. His teams are the rivals of the teams I support, I should be hating him but I can't cause I know that he have the background to run a successful sports team. Just let them do their job. P.s. Some of the questions raised in this video are actually answered by the media.
Honestly, it cannot be understated how important Reece James is to this squad. Best player I’ve seen in a Chelsea shirt, my beautiful boy Hazard, my childhood legend Lampard included (I was about 2 during Zola’s peak so please forgive me). I would trade every single player in the Chelsea team right now for Reece to have healthy thighs again. A team with 11 healthy Reece James’ would walk the league and it wouldn’t even be close
Chelsea were never "up there" before Abramovich bought them, if you don't believe me then look up their honours list on Wikipedia. 1 league title, 3 FA Cups, 2 League Cups, 2 Conference Leagues (UEFA Cup Winner's Cups). Chelsea back then paled in comparison to Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest and Everton even.
One must also not forget that Chelsea lost several key players because they could not make new contracts under the embargo, so they lost two of their best CBs, for example. It's no surprise that Chelsea couldn't just act like nothing happened in the new season and that the performance on the pitch would suffer as a result. Under the circumstances Tuchel did an outstanding job and sacking him was, in my opinion, a sign that Boehly has a bigger ego than understanding of football and how important it is to have such a high quality coach as Tuchel.
Interesting review but as a Chelsea fan I see better days ahead I believe the signing we have made in this window are much better than those done last summer with the lack of experience from the owners and TT's not so good assesment on the players we bought, the injury crisis also had a huge impact on our results but now with the new signings and some of the injured p[layers coming back I see brighter days ahead we will be back COYB!
These videos are a breath of fresh air in footballing expertise in youtube! Let's go Tinashe! Well.. Chelsea made some wise moves in this tranfer window. Mudryk will be a player, watch him getting behind Mbappé as the best two players in the world and demote Haaland to the Lewandowski role. I think Felix could have benefited of having an option to buy too. One thing Todd Boehly has to do is to clean up the squad, because for too many years managers have been thrown under the bus because of players. If he doesn't, might aswell throw Potter too, and he's a good one, give him time
Long time chelsea fan here. My issue with all this hate is that there has been no time to prove anything. Our old team was never going to win us anything, and owners who are actively trying to incorporate youth and energy into the club is giving me hope, even if the results are not here right now. Hope we don’t splash the cash on Fernandez, but the other signings have had their value. Right now we need to offload old players and focus on the stated goal: get a young generation of geniuses all together in the pitch. From there, we see glory. But there may be a rough patch for a while. Up the blues!
Well-produced video. I’m a full-grown man and a father. I understand how time passes and things progress. I look forward to seeing the follow up in 2025, 2026, 2027… provided your are still making content, of course. Many a content creator have come and gone in the last few years.

I think Chelsea has become has taken over United's spot where for the last decade they spent the most money while consistently underperforming. Unfortunately (for them, not for everyone else) they will need several years of this strategy to see the problem.
Man I hate Chelsea... Has only ever won anything because of oil money coming from a Russian ologarch, and yet i saw every other chelsea fan making fun of FCB when the club used their expected future income to solve current financial problems, and now, Chelshea are spending and losing more than ever... I don't see them talking so much jaja
@@Browne7100 not only chelsea fans lmao the whole PL it's pretty disgusting that you're able to buy players and trainers with money that does not come from football generated income. Small teams from England taking from well established teams from Spain is a good example of that. And yet in the last 16 years, spain has dominated europe in champions league and europa league with 20/32 titles coming home.
As a Chelsea fan one things that’s always annoyed me is the lack of strategy. It seems like we just sack any manager who has a bad few months and replace them with someone new who rebuilds the team in their own image. After the takeover Jose built Chelsea to be the formidable defence team in the league and won the title doing so. Even with conte we had 5 at the back with best best DMs in the world in matic plus kante and won the league. If we built the team around this philosophy and actually replaced Hazard, Diego Costa and matic we’d have won the league again. I just miss seeing Chelsea come up against an unstoppable team and make them look like derby :’(
Chelsea new owners are successful investors and businessman, they did their research that's why they are doing what they are doing. They are positive with their project and as a Chelsea fan, we are happy because we understand what risk taking in business mean. Somehow your assets is a bit blurred because you didn't touch on our achievements during the last 20 plus years, it's a good story indeed and it's worth mentioning more than painting a bleak pictures to your viewers..
Though Chelsea's title cabinet was a lot smaller before Roman we did not rise out obscurity. We were a top 4 side who had won every trophy in England atleast once and a few European titles too. Also we were a far better team then city or Newcastle was before they were bought. Also unlike the other new rich clubs Chelsea is the only one generating genuine capital and is completely self sufficient if needed where as if city were to lose their owners most of the clubs finances would drop to nearly nothing and they couldn't even cover their wage bill
we're doing the same sht city did pre-haaland where we dont have a pure #9 goal scorer type player. that, or boehly wants to use lukaku in the future, and if thats the case, lord help us all.
@@simmosimms2841 last goal scorer we signed from Bundesliga was a flop, call me plastic but I think spending over 400 mil this season without getting a quality first team striker is bad spending
The reason why top flight football is so deeply and openly mired in such fundamentally corrupt financial practices is that taking money from football fans (subscription fees, match-day tickets and merchandise) is as easy as taking sweets from the hands of toddlers.
to me the fact that on average apparently chelsea ran at a loss of £900,000 a week over the 19 years of abramovich's ownership, the excesses of victory i suppose
Chelsea is there for a rebuild. Their current weakness is overestimated. With Felix, Mudryk, Jesus, Madueke etc. they've got a prime attacking squad. They have some problems in midfield and overall tactics, but a great squad depth. They have everything they need to challenge top 4, so they will spend some time tweaking tactics and adjusting the team. I am not a Chelsea fan (was as a kid), but you can clearly see they are going to rebuild, it's just a slow process, can't expect the results tomorrow. +
We are a strange club i agree, and a strange team/ teams we’ve had last phew years, i do like the new owners because i think there looking to build something and forget the car crash sacking method that abramovich used.
Its a transition season for them, they already have a good team, they need some top midfielders and a top striker, they´ll be spending a lot again in the Summer but watch out for em next year.
Can we conclude that our football is actually played by the owners. Look at Chelsea, Everton, the glazes, now Newcastle, arsenal were off wen stan n Josh wer busy with so-fi stadium, n now their attention is back on The club. N not to forget man city n psg. The rich play the game n the players are the pawns.
We need time One season cannot be the judgement of the owners and especially potter. We being to harsh on this club. Chelsea just needs to offload a lot of waste players I'm telling you we will come back stronger than ever
I mean this season is a write off. We're out of every cup besides champions league, tho I wouldn't be surprised if we actually pull that out of our asses. with a lot of new signing coming out and looking like no more player power with half of the starting XI leaving, I'm looking forward to next season
I’ve seen reports that Tuchel did/said something to Boehly that made the relationship untenable. I saw Simon Jordan speaking about it and he said that, based on what he heard from insiders, Tuchel deserved to be sacked. If that’s true, idk why Tuchel was so surprised. Then again, he does have a reputation for not being able to manage up. He’s fallen out with the hierarchy of each of his last three clubs. Maybe it’s just his personality and he doesn’t see how he comes across to people all the time.
The only thing stopping me from switching my support to arsenal is Reece James and the notion of being a bandwagon fan. I loved Thomas Tuchel, so I don’t even know what im I’m still being here I love the club but I just don’t know if I agree with whatever Chelsea is doing rn
Could you take a look at what's going on at Ajax because shit's wild. They're like 5th in the league right now and not looking good at all. Which is sad to me
I wouldn't be suprised if they manages to win the UCL even though they end in middle of the table, they already did that before, that's how chaotic is the RNG in this club.
That punk had a tendency to not give younger players proper playing time and that is a fact. Coaches like Pep, Klopp, Ancelotti and Arteta ALWAYS utilizes young talent, Tuchel was hella irritating for doing the opposite. Plus his tactics got watered down dude simply looked clueless at the start of 2022/23 season.
Predictable. All these American investors are awful owners and ruin historic British clubs. The fa should protect these clubs but they never will. Bunch of clowns.
I'm a bit confused by your conclusion on this matter.... You say Chelsea plan's doesn't seem to be working, fair point. But then you say Man City didn't get it right for the first few years, just like Liverpool.... And yet you say that the new board doesn't seem to be getting it right after only 6 months? After getting in a new manager on top of all that? I'm a Chelsea fan and I believe we will get better through time. We have players like Azpi who I think should have left, which is evident with Chelsea going after Gusto. Potter still needs to implement his tactics (remember this took Arteta 2 and a half years to get spot on). And yet people want to judge after 5 months?
All Chelsea problems started with Lukaku. I'm however happy you are now at 220k, I remember when I first subscribed, you were so shy to show your face 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've heard from Americans that Todd Boehly doesn't care about how much he has to spend as long as he wins so expect more "revisions" to FFP laws in the future
You think you have problems Everton fan here 🤦♂️ fantastic result’s under Tuchel he was a top Manager rate him highly🤙 Potter need’s time but doubt he will get it 🤨 Good Luck 🤞

Also this channel admin says they haven't won the league in a couple of decades which is false. They literally won it in the 2016-17 season. They also recently won the UCL. An incompetent yut he is. People can't even Google search these days
@@ANJIN-p4q The statement that they haven't won the PL in decades was made from the perspective of 2003.......
This channel is easily the best football channel on UA-cam, at the moment.

Ehh, Tifo is probably more diverse and interesting. This guy has got to be the best fan-football channel for sure.
@@kieranmcmahon1745 Tifo has the backing of the Athletic (which is now owned by the NYT), in terms of one man channel, football iconic is pretty good.
@@aandwdabest That's pretty interesting, didn't know it was that big, thanks. I certainly agree with you about this guy though
@@kieranmcmahon1745 Tifo feels very corporate nowadays, since they got acquired by the athletic. This channel on the other has much more passion in it, and the feeling that it's made by a real football fan, and not by a company.
Been a Chelsea fan for 20years now, (since I was 10). And here's my take on the current situation.
Tbh, this is due to the accumulation of several problems all along these years.
First sign of trouble was the 2nd appointment of Jose Mourinho. I love JM but his 2nd spell at Chelsea actually hurt the club more than those two trophies he won. His team burnt out quickly in 2016 and was rebuilt by Conte afterwards.
After that, most of the issues were actually due to the transfer board, who not only failed to replace 2017 departures (JT, DC19, Matic) but also made some atrocious signings (Drinwater, Bakayoko, Morata etc.)
The next season, they signed J5 and Kepa for a combined €140m, who never lived up to their price tags especially in the Prem.
The board had no clue whether their targets can fit in well in EPL. Then Pulisic, Werner, Havertz, the same case. The club had no real playmaker but yet they chose to sell Tomori, Guehi, Tammy and bought Lukaku. Tuchel wasn't good with the transfers either so it backfired extremel quickly. One year later, Rudiger and Christensen left on free transfers, making the decision of selling Tomori and Guehi even worse. Then they went out to buy Fofana, Koulibali and Cucurella for another 150m. Anddd now they're 10th in the league cus there's simply not enough quality in the team. Mismanagement at its best.
I hope the new sporting director realizes those issues and fixes them right away.
Support a real club
@@grivewastaken lemme guess u support Barcelona
Chelsea's transfer success really started to downturn after Emenalo left which was after the 16/17 title win, transfers have been very hit and miss since then as the only directors running the club were cech and marina with no dedicated recruitment head or sporting/technical director beyond those two. This is something the new board have identified and have decided must be fixed straight away and their efforts already look like bearing fruit with mudryk and badiashile looking quality with more to come.
@@HLA_0302 he rebuilt its style by playing 3 at the back
I just cant see how jorginho is a failure for us,
Compare his buy to bakayoko and drinkwater.
Regular starter for 5 years, balondor contender, cl and european champion as a starter and metronome
That is a good buy
You're easily my favourite football channel at the moment. Clever, objective and witty. Cheers !
Wish you'd make videos about foreign leagues or clubs more often though.
As an Evertonian who’s a fan of this channel, was wondering if you were considering making a video on our downfall since Moshiri’s takeover?
@@Browne7100 Everton are massive, what you waffling about. Historic club and the People's club. But sad to see them in the Championship next season
@@Browne7100 I am not even an Everton fan ,but even I know Everton has more league titles and football heritage than Chelsea, you clown. Chelsea was a small club until oil owners came knocking the door. You are just Glory hunter plastic fan.
@@bubble4072 they are not a big 6 team tho so they are not a big club
@@unkown981 You know that, there were times, where the traditional big six didn't exist right? Blackburn Rovers, Leeds and Sunderland were still big back in the days. Just because Everton aren't as successful as they were during the 1960's, doesn't mean we can disregard their history. Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham back 30 years ago, weren't considered among the 'big six', were they now? The only Big Six clubs that stayed somewhat consistent were Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United.
Just look at Everton's trophy cabinet, ffs
I too am an Evertonian & would like to see this too
When I became a Chelsea fan in the mid 90s they hadn't won a domestic league title in decades, but were pushing their way up the table, embodied by a "everybody does his job and can trust the guys around him to do theirs" which went from the volunteer supporters who were caring for the pitch all the way up through the club's paid staff, players on the pitch (Dennis Wise would be the public mascot of this attitude), coaches and front office management. By the end of the decade, there were a couple FA cups, and a Cup Winners' cup, but the aging stadium was a millstone around the club's neck, and a big infusion of capital was needed to maintain the upward trajectory, and the league still seemed a big reach. And that's when Abramovich stepped in.
He fired a successful manager who had taken the team from mid table mediocrity to challenging for European places each year, just because Jose Mourinho was available for enough money, which he had. That manager would go on to finally win a Premier League with Leicester city during a season in which 3-5 Chelsea regular first 11 players visibly played at 70% effort or worse for half a season to get a manager they disliked fired - that manager being Jose Mourinho, of course. Abramovich brought with him a social disease common to people who lie, cheat and steal to get great fortunes; the belief that short cuts to hard work are justifiable by success. They're not.
That said; that 2005-6 team and the UCLs are worth some of the character rot, but that doesn't mean I don't notice the smell.
You're not the first longtime Chelsea fan that I've heard this from. Really interesting perspective!
@@FootballIconic It was unreal watching Hazard, Fabregas and several others jog around the pitch as Ranieri and LCFC looked more like pre-Abramovich CFC than anything we'd seen since, and taking it to the league title. I would suggest that if Potter is on his way out, the club could do worse than bringing Ranieri back in, even at his age, just to renew the pre-Abramovich CFC ethic.
That plus American investment banker money could keep CFC at the very top indefinitely. or until the untimely collapse of neoliberal capitalism.
@@evanerys I totally disagree with you. Just because Ranieri did food back those days doesn't mean he can win the UCL for Chelsea. It's totally a different era here.
@@dermotwallace5533 That's an appeal to novelty; not an argument.
Well interesting take, I became a Famous CFC fan way way back in feb 1970, My uncle was a QPR fan, and we drew them in the FA Cup quarter finals at loftus road. We won 4 - 2, and that was that , much to my uncles despair i decided to support the famous CFC, and of course we went on to win the FA Cup against leeds in probably one of the most gruelling, ill tempered finals ever. And along the years, have lived through some dark times, especialy when were in the old Div 2 and losing to wrexham, shrewsbury, etc etc, but there have always been bright times also, when we had pat nevin, graham stuart, kerry dixon, john spencer, The 90`s started and we were average at best, but by 1995 when Hoddle came in, that was the beginning of where we are now, and bit by bit we grew,then gullitt and the brilliant Vialli (RIP) came in and suddenly we were starting to get somewhere, FA cups, European cup winners cup,and the buzz around the bridge at the time was electric, The fans could feel something was going to happen, then Ranieri, who did brilliantly, got us a 2nd place finish to Arsenal, Then Abramovich arrived and brought in Mourinho, brought in some class players and at last league success. Now whatever your take on Abramovich and oil and all that, It was his input that got us champions league victories, FA Cups, League Cups, Europa leagues, Yes we got things wrong, but also did a lot of things right, and to keep challenging for everything for 18 years is some achievement. Now we have Boehly and the moneys got ridiculous, but it is what it is, and he`s putting his money where his mouth is, overhauling a squad thats become stale and lifeless, and we`ve bought well, players for positions, and looking to the long term, obviously such a rebuild albeit they`ve done it faster than anyone could have anticipated, will take time and patience and belief. Its a far cry from the olde days of the 70s and 80s , but CFC are still here and still fighting. KTBFFH
The last 5 years of Abramovich were shambolic. Attacking signings who fit the system of our managers and proper squad building were both ignored because we were good in tournament competitions and those trophies papered over huge cracks despite us being terrible in the Premier League during this time
Boehly's consortium is addressing these problems. The management team is a sporting director away from being complete and fully fleshed out, as opposed to how it was before whereby it was just Granovskaia and Cech who each had their own flaws in their roles
This management team are involving the manager heavily in all transfers which is sending us down the route of buying potential diamonds in the rough like Badiashile for low-ish fees. This is cost-effective, it addresses key problems in the team and it means there's less risk of catastrophic flops like Lukaku and Havertz
Badiashille’s fee wasn’t “low-ish” that was a steal. There are academy products with one loan going for 20million these days. I agree with everything you said here though.
Except they are buying 20+ players that will have to learn a new system that does not exists because potter didnt have one and didnt even have time to produce one because now he's out.
They kicked the only manager with a vision and motivation we've had since Mourinho and proceeded to buy every player in the fan's wishlist without ever stopping to think if compulsively buying new players has ever worked for a club.
Spoiler: it hasn't.
For all Potter fan, i think we should praise Brighton scout more. They have been buying random wonderkids for ages, now many of them are star.
Its more like club policy instead of personal achievements.
I commenting this cause people keep saying Potter is good at lay down the good foundation but aside from Brighton, he aint got any achievements in his résumé.
Everything really started to fall apart the moment tuchel benched Werner! He didn't score as much as he should but with his runs Chelsea was dangerous

Thanks Tinashe!

Benching him for number 9 lukako was mistake
The summer window had no plan as it was last minute. But our January window has been one of the best if not the best transfer window we have had in years, I’m optimistic with our new recruitment team and board making great decisions!
Not only great analysis, but also great slick editing. You are doing a good job !
Good to see you again Tinashe. Make a video on Rashford and his journey thus far. He has been a beasttt after returning from the world cup. One of the best post world cup players rn imo

The golden boot race is gonna be epic
Bro your story telling keeps me hooked..your channel is GOLD 🥇
i think it's just chelsea's turn to "trust the process"
let’s hope boehly has learnt to not sack two coaches in one season
Chelsea's crisis is absolutely normal.
The club changed completely in every aspect just months ago. The club didnt even have a sport's director at the last summer.
It's not a crisis.
It's just : a restaurant change his owner, the last one leave with all the staff, even the tables and the kitchen, it's normal that the firsts months with the new owner are a building site.
My opinion is : we CANNOT judge Chelsea's new owner before the next season.
The didn't took "all the staff, even the tables and the kitchen"
The management of the restaurant changed, not the players (the cooks), the kitchen (the infrastructure) and the tables (400 million in transfers). It's abysmal to be 10ths after half the season is over.
Especially because half that squad has won the CL 2 years ago.
Chelsea are once again the underdogs. As a fan I like that… I’m happy that Egbhali and Todd Boehly are adding more modern methodologies and are making full use of the FFP loophole before it closes. We have done recruitment that will speed up our rebuild by two seasons. We are getting for our top targets which is something fresh
Underdogs that spend 500m? That's a first.
Happy that they´re taking advantage of a FFFP loophole? I´d be embarrased to be happy with my club spending 500 million aimlessly and just fucking up the market whilst having no results ton show for it. Clubs like Chelsea are everything that´s wrong with football nowadays.
@@stefandinu6389 if we weren't underdogs, we wouldn't need to spend 500m
Lol keep dreaming your team is being run to the ground
@@stefandinu6389 well they are, people keep saying they don’t know what they’re doing they don’t have a plan and keep making up different scenarios of Chelsea’s downfall
I feel like I must say that since finding this amazing channel 1 year ago it has been outstanding the jump in quality since then as I keep finding myself checking every 2 days for a new video to watch, so keep it up! ❤
Ive got to say, thank you for this video. It's really nice to watch a video not loaded with agenda. You just spit facts and sprinkle on your opinion, but never try to sell your opinion as fact. Best football channel by far.
I'll always be grateful for Tuchel with what he did, however normally he tenure is sold as far more successful then it was.
He won the champions league soon after joining which is no small feat, but after that he lost 3 finals and didn't challenge for the title. We were too reliant (and still are) on Chillwell and James and when they go down we have nothing to fall back on. He didn't have anything other than 343 so when the players werent there he was limited.
Authority is lacking from Potter. I remember Arsenal being very bad last year, but one thing which was universal was Arteta's authority. He told the team who is the boss. He disciplined his team well.
Potter needs to show authority. Zero room for indiscipline... See Ten Hag for eg. Rashford at the peak of his powers. But, benched for being late. That's showing authority. Team automatically respects you more as there are no favorites.
As long as Potter doesn't get sacked I believe in the project, the pivot away from big contracts in exchange for performance based ones is a smart move, we've struggled with having players undeserving of their contracts for years, i.e. Lukaku, Drinkwater, Bakayoko etc.
So we’re just going to completely ignore all the very good technical directors that were brought in to replace marina and cech?
I can't wait to start to see their influence on our squad building strategy.
Not ignoring. Just stating that it's a lot of change all at once.
Like I said, they obviously have a plan- just have to wait and see if it works out
3:41 Chalobah has signed. The squad is complete! You even have Kovacic as a sub now
Chelsea is so strange that I wouldn't put it past them to make a deep push into the Champions League this season (dependent on Reece James and Kante being healthy). I swear this season has all the remnants of 2012 written on all over it.
I mean if Kante and their wingers start playing out of their mind like they once did in 2021 season then there is a real possibility that Chelsea might bring home another Champions League trophy again.
Nobody think that there is a possibility of Chelsea winning the 2021 UCL but yet here we are.
@@tuananhhoang7113 coming back after a crazy transfer window, I legitimately think Chelsea are a threat now 😂😂
Loved the video as always, such good narration, I was wondering thought when the granit xhaka video was going to come out
Hopefully soon haha!
People tend to question things they can't understand but as a Red Sox fan and with Boehly's LA Dodgers as one of our biggest rivals I can testament that he's not just a clueless overspender. Dude know how to run a sports club.
Compared to Granovskaia, yes, Maria was a superb negotiator, arguably the best in the business, she can have the praise but I can't question someone who already proved that he can run and rebuild a sports team like Todd Boehly as the owner.
Everyone are laughing when Boehly is chasing for that "superstar" to build around but here's a thing, he also traded for one of my favorite players, Mookie Betts. A former MVP. And it didn't even last long, they won a title.
He's also a co-owner of the Lakers and they won a championship in 2020. His teams are the rivals of the teams I support, I should be hating him but I can't cause I know that he have the background to run a successful sports team. Just let them do their job.
P.s. Some of the questions raised in this video are actually answered by the media.
Good to see you again, Tinashe.
Good to hear from you, my guy
Being a Chelsea fan for 19 years, stability is not our thing. We thrive in chaos 😂😂
relegation fight kinda chaos
I love this channel. I love how they explain things and it is much better
Honestly, it cannot be understated how important Reece James is to this squad. Best player I’ve seen in a Chelsea shirt, my beautiful boy Hazard, my childhood legend Lampard included (I was about 2 during Zola’s peak so please forgive me).
I would trade every single player in the Chelsea team right now for Reece to have healthy thighs again.
A team with 11 healthy Reece James’ would walk the league and it wouldn’t even be close
Agreed , when he is healthy he dominates the right side
from a football perspective, it is too sad to see what happened to abramovich
Bruh I love your channel. As a Portuguese American living in America… my UA-cam recommendations *suck*
Amazing content😊
A Video on Chelsea under Poch and who may be the World Class striker they going to sign.
Always good to see new high quality content. Keep it up 👏
Chelsea were never "up there" before Abramovich bought them, if you don't believe me then look up their honours list on Wikipedia.
1 league title, 3 FA Cups, 2 League Cups, 2 Conference Leagues (UEFA Cup Winner's Cups).
Chelsea back then paled in comparison to Aston Villa, Nottingham Forest and Everton even.
One must also not forget that Chelsea lost several key players because they could not make new contracts under the embargo, so they lost two of their best CBs, for example. It's no surprise that Chelsea couldn't just act like nothing happened in the new season and that the performance on the pitch would suffer as a result. Under the circumstances Tuchel did an outstanding job and sacking him was, in my opinion, a sign that Boehly has a bigger ego than understanding of football and how important it is to have such a high quality coach as Tuchel.
Interesting review but as a Chelsea fan I see better days ahead I believe the signing we have made in this window are much better than those done last summer with the lack of experience from the owners and TT's not so good assesment on the players we bought, the injury crisis also had a huge impact on our results but now with the new signings and some of the injured p[layers coming back I see brighter days ahead we will be back COYB!
I've been deprived.
Keep the great content coming 👏🏼
You should do a video on Everton and the situation they are in I think that would be an interesting video
Excellent response regarding Roman and Putin. Amazingly dignified my friend and I wish there were more of your silky class..👏

can't be complacent, they won the league in 16-17 after finishing 10th in 15-16.
These videos are a breath of fresh air in footballing expertise in youtube! Let's go Tinashe!
Well.. Chelsea made some wise moves in this tranfer window. Mudryk will be a player, watch him getting behind Mbappé as the best two players in the world and demote Haaland to the Lewandowski role. I think Felix could have benefited of having an option to buy too. One thing Todd Boehly has to do is to clean up the squad, because for too many years managers have been thrown under the bus because of players. If he doesn't, might aswell throw Potter too, and he's a good one, give him time
Long time chelsea fan here. My issue with all this hate is that there has been no time to prove anything. Our old team was never going to win us anything, and owners who are actively trying to incorporate youth and energy into the club is giving me hope, even if the results are not here right now. Hope we don’t splash the cash on Fernandez, but the other signings have had their value. Right now we need to offload old players and focus on the stated goal: get a young generation of geniuses all together in the pitch. From there, we see glory. But there may be a rough patch for a while. Up the blues!
Well-produced video. I’m a full-grown man and a father. I understand how time passes and things progress.

I think Chelsea has become has taken over United's spot where for the last decade they spent the most money while consistently underperforming. Unfortunately (for them, not for everyone else) they will need several years of this strategy to see the problem.
The "park the bus" joke made me laugh out loud 😂😂😂
Man I hate Chelsea... Has only ever won anything because of oil money coming from a Russian ologarch, and yet i saw every other chelsea fan making fun of FCB when the club used their expected future income to solve current financial problems, and now, Chelshea are spending and losing more than ever...

As a Chelsea fan one things that’s always annoyed me is the lack of strategy. It seems like we just sack any manager who has a bad few months and replace them with someone new who rebuilds the team in their own image. After the takeover Jose built Chelsea to be the formidable defence team in the league and won the title doing so. Even with conte we had 5 at the back with best best DMs in the world in matic plus kante and won the league. If we built the team around this philosophy and actually replaced Hazard, Diego Costa and matic we’d have won the league again. I just miss seeing Chelsea come up against an unstoppable team and make them look like derby :’(
Chelsea new owners are successful investors and businessman, they did their research that's why they are doing what they are doing. They are positive with their project and as a Chelsea fan, we are happy because we understand what risk taking in business mean. Somehow your assets is a bit blurred because you didn't touch on our achievements during the last 20 plus years, it's a good story indeed and it's worth mentioning more than painting a bleak pictures to your viewers..
Marina was the sporting director. Petr cech was a technical advisor.
Though Chelsea's title cabinet was a lot smaller before Roman we did not rise out obscurity. We were a top 4 side who had won every trophy in England atleast once and a few European titles too. Also we were a far better team then city or Newcastle was before they were bought. Also unlike the other new rich clubs Chelsea is the only one generating genuine capital and is completely self sufficient if needed where as if city were to lose their owners most of the clubs finances would drop to nearly nothing and they couldn't even cover their wage bill
I have no clue why we are spending so much money on wingers, when we don’t have a striker
We have 3 but 1 is injured, D.Fofana and Aubameyang are available for now
we have signed nkunku who is a false nine doing 25 a season we will be fine u plastic

The reason why top flight football is so deeply and openly mired in such fundamentally corrupt financial practices is that taking money from football fans (subscription fees, match-day tickets and merchandise) is as easy as taking sweets from the hands of toddlers.
Your videos are excellent dude, thanks for making them, densely entertaining, well written and well edited, an inspiration to my own videos
to me the fact that on average apparently chelsea ran at a loss of £900,000 a week over the 19 years of abramovich's ownership, the excesses of victory i suppose
Football clubs are rarely profitable except few big clubs.
This is one of the most underrated channels in the world
That laugh from the commentator was downright evil😂😂😂
Chelsea is there for a rebuild. Their current weakness is overestimated. With Felix, Mudryk, Jesus, Madueke etc. they've got a prime attacking squad. They have some problems in midfield and overall tactics, but a great squad depth. They have everything they need to challenge top 4, so they will spend some time tweaking tactics and adjusting the team. I am not a Chelsea fan (was as a kid), but you can clearly see they are going to rebuild, it's just a slow process, can't expect the results tomorrow.

Injuries hampered them last season as well, at a point they had 6 players on the bench with two being keepers
We are a strange club i agree, and a strange team/ teams we’ve had last phew years, i do like the new owners because i think there looking to build something and forget the car crash sacking method that abramovich used.
Its a transition season for them, they already have a good team, they need some top midfielders and a top striker, they´ll be spending a lot again in the Summer but watch out for em next year.
Can we conclude that our football is actually played by the owners. Look at Chelsea, Everton, the glazes, now Newcastle, arsenal were off wen stan n Josh wer busy with so-fi stadium, n now their attention is back on The club. N not to forget man city n psg. The rich play the game n the players are the pawns.

It's Eidur Gudjonssen, not Edgar 😅 Nonetheless, great vid. Keep up the good work, champ! 🔥
Yeah he has prior in business experience he is going to stack the club with players inflate the price of the club and sell it at a premium
We need time
One season cannot be the judgement of the owners and especially potter. We being to harsh on this club. Chelsea just needs to offload a lot of waste players I'm telling you we will come back stronger than ever
I mean this season is a write off. We're out of every cup besides champions league, tho I wouldn't be surprised if we actually pull that out of our asses. with a lot of new signing coming out and looking like no more player power with half of the starting XI leaving, I'm looking forward to next season
Just starting to learn football and the history and this helps a lot
I’ve seen reports that Tuchel did/said something to Boehly that made the relationship untenable. I saw Simon Jordan speaking about it and he said that, based on what he heard from insiders, Tuchel deserved to be sacked. If that’s true, idk why Tuchel was so surprised. Then again, he does have a reputation for not being able to manage up. He’s fallen out with the hierarchy of each of his last three clubs. Maybe it’s just his personality and he doesn’t see how he comes across to people all the time.
Amazing video!!! Can you do a video on Diego Costa? So much to talk about!!
The only thing stopping me from switching my support to arsenal is Reece James and the notion of being a bandwagon fan. I loved Thomas Tuchel, so I don’t even know what im I’m still being here
I love the club but I just don’t know if I agree with whatever Chelsea is doing rn
Mudryk, enzo, and felix probably could really fix them
I'm a simple man.. football iconic uploads and I'm on it faster than America establishing democracy in a country that found oil
Could you take a look at what's going on at Ajax because shit's wild. They're like 5th in the league right now and not looking good at all. Which is sad to me
I wouldn't be suprised if they manages to win the UCL even though they end in middle of the table, they already did that before, that's how chaotic is the RNG in this club.

The clip of the Timberlands after Lukaku 💀 prime
That'd be Eiður Guðjohnsen. It's not even an Icelandic equivalent of Edgar. 11:52
No Roman, no trophies. Chelsea was mid table team before Abramovich and they will be that after him.
That punk had a tendency to not give younger players proper playing time and that is a fact. Coaches like Pep, Klopp, Ancelotti and Arteta ALWAYS utilizes young talent, Tuchel was hella irritating for doing the opposite. Plus his tactics got watered down dude simply looked clueless at the start of 2022/23 season.
Really dig your fresh cut😎
Predictable. All these American investors are awful owners and ruin historic British clubs. The fa should protect these clubs but they never will. Bunch of clowns.
I'm a bit confused by your conclusion on this matter.... You say Chelsea plan's doesn't seem to be working, fair point. But then you say Man City didn't get it right for the first few years, just like Liverpool.... And yet you say that the new board doesn't seem to be getting it right after only 6 months?
After getting in a new manager on top of all that?
I'm a Chelsea fan and I believe we will get better through time. We have players like Azpi who I think should have left, which is evident with Chelsea going after Gusto. Potter still needs to implement his tactics (remember this took Arteta 2 and a half years to get spot on). And yet people want to judge after 5 months?
All Chelsea problems started with Lukaku. I'm however happy you are now at 220k, I remember when I first subscribed, you were so shy to show your face 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good on Fulham having good results vs the big sides this season
Being that rich in Russia... he must have made some shady dealings at some point...
I've heard from Americans that Todd Boehly doesn't care about how much he has to spend as long as he wins so expect more "revisions" to FFP laws in the future
