Todd Boehly Thread

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

Boehly said in a statement that he was "honoured" and "wanted to make fans proud".

''We are honoured to become the new custodians of Chelsea Football Club," he said.

"We're all in - 100% - every minute of every match. Our vision as owners is clear: we want to make the fans proud.

"Along with our commitment to developing the youth squad and acquiring the best talent, our plan of action is to invest in the club for the long term and build on Chelsea's remarkable history of success.

"I personally want to thank ministers and officials in the British government, and the Premier League, for all their work in making this happen."

Bloke's a Chels fan but there's nothing else good to be said about him. Football knowledge close to zero, general knowledge less. 

Merson? He is a former arsenal player and I never really believed he is a real Chelsea fan despite stating so out of the blue during the conte years. He is a regular on some Arsenal channels as well

He is a Chelsea fan, I've heard him before in an interview saying how he would have loved playing for Chelsea but they had a little Italian magician in his preferred position. He's stated it numerous times and talked about celebrating when winning the champions league in 2012.

There will always be an arsenal connection and affinity to them too as a result of his career. He's not the first player with connections to multiple clubs.

Unfortunately his support for Chelsea doesn't protect him from being pretty clueless in his views on football.

It wasn't out of the blue. He was a Shed ender before he started spending his Saturday afternoons another way. Definitely clueless however.

Lol 3/4s of the replies to that thread is embarrassing.

Little babies crying on twitter because we haven’t signed someone yet despite having to restructure a lot of the upper management/senior positions in the club.

Swear half of our fanbase will never learn.

Pretty interesting read, lot of good ideas but remains to be seen how it goes. Lot of people skeptical but his background, track record and past experiences are very impressive.
