Shocker

Oh my god, you mean to tell me that Putins right hand man had links to Putin??? This is a revelation

And some fans still want him back.

They still sing his name every week. The murder of thousands of women and children mean nothing to these people as long as Daddy Abramovich kept the money rolling in. They should erase him from their history.

Well of course, because before him Chelsea wasn’t competitive team. Look at this fool who is in charge now due to unjust political decisions. And yes, I said unjust, because I don’t see israel being banned from competitions 😉

And I’m not a fan of any premier league club. Just facts.

No shit..

Worst part for me is that back in 2010 the exchange rate for $40m was £24m, take me back

Wow. A Russian billionaire had links to the Russian president? How uncommon is that.

Considering oligarchs who don't back Putain end up committing suicide with 3 gunshots to the back of the head, Abrahamovic only lasted this long by being on his good graces.

Youll still see the Chelsea sub full of worshipping «daddy roman». That shite is absolutely pathetic.

[–] vivaelteclado@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If you only found $40m, I don't think you're looking hard enough.

Isn't this the case with all the other wealthy Russians? Unless they line Putin's pockets, they would be in a lot of bother. One of the main reasons Roman brought a prominent English football team was to make him famous enough in international media so that Putin would have to think twice before taking any action against him.
