When you realise what the intentions at Chelsea are, you begin to understand the downfall and why it's happening.
Here is Clearlake co-founder Jose Feliciano in October 2022. Business first. Football later. "A long term sustainable business that can accrue in value significantly and that means a lot more than just winning or losing on the pitch".
The appetite to win and be the best is not there. It's the appetite to generate revenue by relying on data and without relying on football results to make it happen. Football results become just a bonus instead of the main protagonist. That's what a "sustainable business" is to them. Mediocrity on a footballing level becomes accepted this way. From sporting directors to manager to players. As we are seeing in front of our eyes. Simple.
Here's the full interview if you're interested: https://t.co/WLnYQkIQPO
@JoezMcfLy Umm im not sure about this. Search up Jose Felicianoโs quotes when Clearlake Capital took over Chelsea. He in particular focuses alot on the wage bills and business side than the actual results. But you never know

๐จ๐ก Villarreal agree deal to sign Canada international midfielder Nathan Saliba, here we go!
Deal done for โฌ15m fee from Anderlecht.
22 year old midfielder set to travel for medical tests and contract signing. ๐จ๐ฆ
Brighton have signed Promise David from Royale Union Saint-Gilloise on a season-long loan with a conditional obligation to buy.
Promise, who goes by the nickname Tobi, was part of Jesse Marsch's World Cup squad with Canada.๐จ๐ฆ
๐ฃ๏ธ Sporting director Mike Cave: โPromise is someone we have been watching for some time, he is an out-and-out striker who possesses outstanding physical attributes and a track record of scoring goals.
โHis experience at international level and in European competition will hopefully prove valuable this season.
โAt 25, heโs entering his prime playing years and weโre excited to see him continue to develop in our environment.โ
@Bluecoxtra@GlenWilliams12 Who knows how this would turn out. Diegzy turned out v good and Amougou turned out bad .. Chelsea fans were happy when both left. Hope Omari kills it ๐ฅ
@Melchizedek2000@iam_brau Agreed. All those teams either played back 5 or 3 midfielders with back 4. With Caicenzo, we are playing back 4 and double pivot aka midfield 2
@FabrizioRomano Great Signing imo. At Barca, Araujo always had to be the A side defender. With Virgil taking responsibility, I expect him to be amazing ๐
