Villatillidie95 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Chelsea in talks with Saudi state airline Riyadh Air about them becoming their front of shirt sponsor. Riyadh air is owned by PIF and Chelsea are seeking £60 million pounds a year for the deal. The agreement will have to pass the independent premier league fair valuation rules, however it’s not expected to be a problem as Newcastle’s £25 million sponsorship deal passed. Riyadh air was founded in March 2023 and Dosent have plans to start flying until 2025, what a farce this will be, Clearlake is a PIF front!

Villatillidie95 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 They have also introduced a hospitality offering called “the dugout club”, which, for the princely sum of £680 per person, allows you to sit behind the Chelsea substitutes on the dugout and “observe the teams arrival”.

MWARLEY2 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Amazing how everyone could see the issue with buying a ton of promising footballers and getting rid of all the experienced ones apart from the Chelsea board. But more worryingly for them no one really cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are a complete basket case of a club right now. You say the team to gel but thing is I don't their players are very good. If you play Chelsea what are the player you fear before a game? Because I can't think of any. Sterling can be decent on his day but he isn't someone you'd feel nervous about beforehand.

You’re right, their team is a clusterf@&k of overpriced mediocre players purchased on a whim by a clueless owner. The manager now has to try and get all of those players to fit his system, whether they are suitable or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be something to do with having semi competitive preseason tournaments or perhaps because matches are now 10-15 minutes longer with the new added time interpretation?

Chelsea are a complete basket case of a club right now. De Zerbi would do little there. Brighton is a coaching paradise currently. At Chelsea you're still deciding which 5 players can't fit into the room for the latest team meeting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Hopefully we can get a result against this lot, they're terrible. Their players will be well rested, and will be a good litmus test to see if we can cope with Thursday-Sunday matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
