Whilst I’ve been genuinely surprised with the amount of Arsenal shirts around London, I’ve been even more surprised by the amount of ‘neutrals’ hate-watching, celebrating their defeat, and I absolutely love it.
So you genuinely don’t believe Chelsea are in a better place than 12 months ago? Performances under Maresca have improved massively, mentality has improved and the squad has definitely improved. Remember you said we wouldn’t get top four last season and we did. You didn’t have us battering PSG like we did. That deserves a lot of credit and to me is a clear indication Chelsea are heading in the right direction. As for transfers, Gittens for Madueke is the only transfer this summer in which I understand what you mean, like for like. Bringing in Delap, Pedro, Hato, Estevao that argument doesn’t work for because they’ve actively improved the squad in positions we needed & have given us strength in depth ahead of CL football.
