Cleaned through billions of money in Chelsea.

Did he? He lost money all throughout his ownership and last I heard still didn’t have access to the sale proceeds. Plus rumor is he wasn’t even allowed within the country for the last few years.

I don’t think Roman “sportswashed” because I don’t think he was trying to clean up his public persona, but instead wanted to have assets outside of Putin’s control in case things went bad. And at least to date that plan backfired.

I don’t get what we’re doing here trying to paint Chelsea’s spending as some new wave ruining football.

Exactly!

This isn’t even the first time Chelsea’s spending ruined football!

The hate for Saudis and American’s is 100% warranted

Juxtaposing those two together is completely unreasonable. Whataboutism and sports washing in action.

Boehly and Chelsea’s transfers have been absurd, the Glazers are leeching money out of ManU, but the rest have been more or less the same as any other group of owners?

Arsenal is at a high point they haven’t been at for a while, and Liverpool had an incredible run of success under FSG. I also think ownership at Villa, Palace, Fulham, Leeds, and West Ham has been fine? As a whole I don’t think those owners are any better or worse than those at Spurs, Wolves, or Brighton.
