Do we have to read silly articles again whenever Chelsea win games?

seems like it.

We gotta accept that City and Chelsea will compete for the league, Chelsea along with Barca, Real and PSG will compete for the CL.

But it's not just money any more. Chelsea have sold a lot of players and made a lot of money these last windows. It's the players they buy. Ozil is a great player but do you think he's better than Fabregas for the Premier League. Costa was a steal at 32 million when you think how much they got for Lukaku.

What Chelsea have now is a team which can dominate play or play counter or play short or play long. They can play with and without the ball.

You can finally see the pieces of Mourinho's jigsaw falling into place. If they have one weakness, it may be centre defence but Ivanovic can cover and they have Zouma and a host of youngsters.

Tbh Eto'o would have been an ok option considering things now. Better than sanogo, proper striker would have been free, relatively risk free, and would add bit of depth once giroud is back. Reckon he could have got a fair few goals for us. That's unless wenger has a better striker he plans to buy, because we should technically be able to get better than Eto'o

Simple solution. Don't read it.

That's not even the point. The point people in this thread are making is that other teams seem willing to address their needs and buy players on the basis of that; Wenger, however, simply buys the "best value" in the market or, as with Ozil, irrespective of the actual requirements of the side, the "best available option."

I'd love to see some rhyme, reason and seeming thought put into the building of the team and the elements required to ensure the same mistakes aren't repeated, year after year, season after season. At this point, Wenger is on the path to repeating the exact same mistakes half this board píss themselves about whenever a pundit has gall enough to point them out.
