Chelsea Splashing Again

Roman Abramovich can't stand the humiliation of losing the EPL title to Manchester United for 2 season in succession, and more over losing their first ever Champion's League Finals to the same opponent when it's there for the taking.

So after couping up Luis Filipe Scolari, he's ready to splash his multi-billion pounds again to get all the top superstar players available, preventing all top star players from going to rivals, and trying to do what Real Madrid is doing over the years.

Can his multi-million or billion pounds buy him success? Is it healthy for a club to run that way? Although money is no objection to Chelsea, but if one day the club isn't able to sustain its operational cost due to high overhead, what's the consequences the club is facing?

For now they've got Deco, the next would be Samuel Eto'o and Ronaldinho, and also trying to get is Fernando Torres I believe. But can the coach gather all the superstars together and gel them as a team? From my understanding, Filipe Scolari isn't a kind boss to work with, and he's the kind of boss who a little like Sir Alex Ferguson - He runs the rule, not players. So I believe even if all superstar players go to Chelsea, most of them would have problem playing regular football and eventually team unity would be in disarray!

What you think of this?
