Palmer’s success ended up being the best thing that ever happened to Joe Shields. The moment Palmer exploded, Shields gained untouchable status and suddenly Chelsea started looking more and more like a retirement home for ex-Manchester City academy products.
Every transfer window feels the same: another familiar name, another former City kid, another excuse. At some point people have to ask whether these signings are genuinely for Chelsea’s benefit or simply because certain people have too much influence behind the scenes.
A few good calls don’t make someone immune from scrutiny. If Chelsea keep collecting players because of connections instead of quality, the club will keep paying the price for it.
Not to mention the money of commission Joe shields is earning from these deals and his connection with kinetic academy . Can’t believe Chelsea till now haven’t start an investigation on Joe shields and continue to blindly trust him .
