Good riddance to Chelsea I remember when this fella rocked up at Chelsea and them man was spending 25-30 million on players like it was nothing:damn::damn::damn: and a number of them like Kezman, Shevchenko where major flops and written of like nothing. Meanwhile Reyes for 16 million was breaking the bank :damn:

one senior government source said Chelsea’s behaviour was “like a drowning person in shark-infested waters, complaining they aren’t on an oligarch’s yacht and threatening the people throwing them a life ring”.
:damn:

The source added: “We are not opposed to Chelsea having fans at games in the long run, but we will not allow money from ticket sales to flow to a sanctioned entity. Chelsea should spend less time worrying about having a few thousand fans at one game, and focus on moving their club into the hands of someone who isn’t linked to a warmonger.”
Everybody please welcome to the EPL the independent Saudi businessman :troll:

You peak 28/29 and that was what you’d leverage for a big contract/big move

For those prime 28-29 years you would have to pay top dollar. You weren't getting those players on the cheap unless it was on as bosman.

PL MLS Turkish league The Gulf countries Japan China all say otherwise. The league profiles benefit by enticing past their prime players on big wages :manny: This happens in other sports as well.

And then you had Uncle Festa giving out big contract reups to the over 30's for years and years which crippled Milan.
