Just how did we buy a champions league? Turning over Barca in Spain with 10 men? Beating the best European club side in recent history in their own back yard?
Your knowledge of football is amazing small. With the team we had back then we should with better luck and better refereeing have won three titles.

Here's how.

2011-12: Blues Arrive in the Promised Land
It seemed a new era was dawning at Stamford Bridge with the appointment of Andre Villas-Boas as manager in July 2011.

It was all short-lived, though, with the young Portuguese fired come March that season as Chelsea's season looked to crumble around them. Roberto Di Matteo stepped in to steady the ship but did a lot more than that as the club lifted the FA Cup and Champions League for the first time.

Including his spending in the 2011 summer transfer window, getting his hands on the Champions League trophy had taken Abramovich just shy of nine years and £597.25 million on transfer fees.

Oriol Romeu (from Barcelona): £4.35 million

Romelu Lukaku (from Anderlecht): £18 million

Juan Mata (from Valencia): £23.5 million

Raul Meireles (from Liverpool): £12 million

Gary Cahill (from Bolton Wanderers): £7 million

Kevin De Bruyne (from Genk): £6.7 million

Yeah ... they must be absolutely disgusted that Abramovic' s financial clout has brought them all those trophies ... and all those global plastic fans <laugh>
You misread my post mate.

I said chavs wouldn't want anyone else reading that link.

Cos it shows what we all know and what they don't like to admit.

They bought anything they've ever won under roman.

Often wondered why fosse always bites when I drag the chavs through the mud for buying thier current status in football.

But its cos lestah basically done that to get to the prem right?
 
Bro we can't be going back 100 years.

Its not fair as none of the rest of us here were alive.

Good point... so you are confirming that in 60 years from now no football fans will remember that Chelsea and Citeh bought the vast majority of their success just like Liverpool and United had done before them? ... glad we got there in the end <cheers>

But we are alive now bro and Chelsea along with city are buying success.

So should we not talk about it?

I think perhaps it's a subject a bit close too home for you, that's why you're being so confrontational.
