How Good Were Chelsea BEFORE Abramovich?

- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- Looking closely into Chelsea’s trophy cabinet, you’re not gonna see much dust on it. They actually look quite brand new and shiny.
Matter of fact, most of those trophies were won in the last 2 decades, which led to many people accusing Chelsea of NOT having a history BEFORE this Roman Abramovich took over.
But the question is, how good were Chelsea BEFORE the take over of Roman Abramovich? And did Chelsea BUY their recent success with money? Did Chelsea BUY their title?
Chelsea are one of the strongest pillars of the Premier League's big 6. Whether you like Chelsea or not, it’s undeniable to consider Chelsea as an elite club.
With 6 Premier Leagues (1 of it before Premier League), 8 FA Cups, and 5 League Cups, they wrote their history in the English Football.
But their success wasn't limited to the borders of English Football, with winning 2 Champions Leagues, 2 Europa League trophies, and 2 UEFA Cup Winners Cup, they certainly have their name in the pantheon of European football.
But the question is...Did Chelsea buy the league?
Well...stay around to watch the last few years before Roman Abramovich bought Chelsea.

Man, what an underrated channel. Love your stuff dude. Hope you make it big on youtube.
Wowwww....Thanks alot dude. That was quite a compliment, my guy !!! 😀😀
Really glad you like the channel dude. Thank you for your love and support. Really appreciate it 🙏🙏
In fact, being Italian, my Premier League favourite is Chelsea, since 96, 'cause Di Matteo was a beast 😎 and I missed him in serie A.
Yep....Good old days, my friend. Him and Ravanelli are the first Italians that I remember going to the Premier League 🙂🙂
Thanks alot, Ben, for the comment. Really appreciate it 🙏🙏
Yep...Chelsea was a European club before the Abramovich takeover. That being said, Chelsea went leaps and bounds to the next level thanks to Abramovich
Yeah, indeed !!! Thanks alot my friend. Really appreciate it. Thank you for the comment 🙏🙏
overpriced starbucks coffee lmaoooo XDXDXDXD
Hahahhaaa....had to include that 😀😀
Thank you for the comment, as always. Really appreciate it, dude 🙏🙏
We have a history it’s not anazing but we have been a force for at least 20 years and we can’t change the past. An elite club at least because every fan gets nervous against Chelsea
Indeed. Very well said. How do you rate the chances of Chelsea adding a 3rd Champions League to the cabinet?
Thank you for your comments, as always.🙏🙏
@@FootballDrawn I think within another 5-10 years we can add another UCL but I think we are more focused on the EPL at the moment
Great video as always, and I love your jokes. Keep it up.
Hahahaa....Thanks alot dude. Yep, just trying new things for the videos. Glad you like them.! Really appreciate your comments as always.🙏🙏
You really caught Abramovich especially the hair and downward glance like he's always having a private chuckle to himself(maybe that's just my take lol), pretty good ancelloti too :) Clubs past stories and exploits always appeal to me. Good stuff
Hahahahaa...Yeah he was a tough man to draw (and so was Ancelotti) 😀😀
Thanks alot for the comment, Phil. Really appreciate it. Really glad you like the video. 🙏🙏
Ken Bates looks like George Lucas
Hahahahaa...Yeah you're right. 😀😀
To be honest, he was verrrrrry challenging to draw. Usually I look at features that stick out in someone's face, but he had a very "normal" face with beard, which made it quite a challenge sketch. 😀
Wow, your videos are really good for someone with only 1K subs, hope your channel grows
Thanks alot, dude. Really appreciate your love and support. Yeah, I hope so too 😀😀
Thank you for your comment, my friend🙏🙏
Mate...I'm in LOVE with your channel 🔥🔥
Awesome, my friend...That really means alot to me. Thank you for your comment. Really appreciate it 🙏🙏
Another good one,.Always keep up the good work

🔥🔥🔥🔥⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️😍😍😍😍
Thank you Mehrnaz. Really appreciate your comment🙏🙏
Wow...you're such an underrated channel, my guy. Keep going man !!!
Loved the video about Chelsea's history before Roman Abramovich
Thank you for the comment. Really appreciate your love and support, my friend. That really means alot to me 🙏🙏
Ah yes... Chelsea do have a history with Italians. That's how my friend, who supports Italy, started following Chelsea as a kid, because there were several Italians in the 90s like Vialli, Zola, Di Matteo, Casiraghi, etc. I think being a London club helps in their appeal too.
Yep...That's what made me have a soft spot for them in the late 90's/early 2000's. It also helped that my Milan gave them a few players at the end of their careers (George Weah, Marcel Desailly), although they returned the favor much later as well (Essien, Torres, Alex). Safe to say Chelsea got the better end of the deals 😀😀
@@FootballDrawn Ah, it must be awesome to see so many legends like Ronaldinho, Beckham, Ronaldo, Rui Costa and even a peak Shevchenko. That's not even including your local boys yet!
@@sususegar Ohhh, times were gooooood :)))
Great video!!
Thanks alot my friend. Really glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your comment 🙏🙏
I would like to know more about Manchester City,
Also I have few topics for you
1) why Tottenham have few trophies despite being an old club of England
2) why Russia is not a Football powerhouse despite have some iconic success (Euro 1960 winner, first Euro champ), why they doesn't continue their success.
Hi Imran. Thanks alot for the comment, and the suggestions. They're all amazing, especially, the Russia one, since there's politics and the cold war involved with the Russian football within that time. It will be a verrrrrry interesting topic to cover for video.
Thank you for the comment. I really appreciate it dude 🙏🙏
@@FootballDrawn you are welcome friend.
Great Vedio Brother 🤗❤️
Heyyyy dude...Good to see you again!!!
Really glad you liked the video, my friend. Thank you for your comments. Really appreciate it🙏🙏
I think you are going to do a similar video about Manchester City. Inevitably. I would like this series. Generally, it is interesting how some clubs/leagues work with their club administration rules. Recently tifo uploaded a video about who owns Barcelona.
And you have made a video about Germany's 50+1, I remember this.
I also like the idea of having some quick looks at some specific periods of various clubs' histories. Like the galacticos that were mentioned here. It's like special editions of a club that have their own history within the club's broader history and within football history in general.
Hi Nektarios. Yeah I really loved the Tifo video on Barcelona. It's interesting how different clubs and nations function their admin side of things. Thank you, as always, for your comments. 🙏🙏🙏
Hahahaa....as soon as I made that sketch, I knew I had to make a video about Real Madrid's first galacticos. Maybe an objective view of why the first galacticos era wasn't as successful as it was intended to be. Let's see how that script will come about.
@@FootballDrawn oh! Well, in case you do present us a video about "Galacticos unsuccessful experiment" let's call it... I think those who were living this era (I am a liiitle bit younger, I was a kid though and I didn't live and breathe football at that time) might argue that the reason it failed was Makelele's departure. (A player who I remember as a Chelsea player! What a coincidence! -or not...)
Brilliant video on Chelsea's history, before and after Roman Abramovich
Thanks alot dude. Really appreciate it man. Thank you for the comment 🙏🙏
Great video appreciate the hardwork 👍
Thanks alot dude. Really appreciate your comments here, as always. Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your love and support 🙏🙏
@@FootballDrawn Welcome hope you get to a million!!!
@@Mnu103 I hope so too :)))
Absolutely brilliant video, i just discovered your channel and it's so underrated. As a german Chelsea fan since the days as Frank Lampard as coach i really had to dig deep in Chelsea's history to understand the culture and controversies about Chelsea, the biggest we're seeing right now in 2022. Abramovich improved Chelsea's standards by a mile, but we had spells of some years at the top of English football in the early to mid 50's, early 60s until the mid 70s and mid 90s until pre 2003, interrupted by relegations and average results. It's been a rollercoaster ride and i love Chelsea, maybe you could make some more Chelsea related videos
Hi Johannes. Thanks alot for the comment, and checking out my channel. It really means alot.
Yeah to be honest, this is the video that I enjoyed the most making it. Older Chelsea fans will tell you how much they've gone through during the 80's 😀😀
I really hope Chelsea comes out of the current situation without any harm. Hope you get an owner that has the club's best interests.
Thank you for your comment. Really appreciate it. Really enjoyed reading it. 🙏🙏
I really enjoyed this video but let's be honest. Madrid and man u spent money they earned thru their own legitimate history whereas Chelsea was a modern day west ham. So yes, they bought success, but City is worse
Hi dude...Thank you for the comment. Really appreciate it 🙏🙏
Yeah, indeed. Money plays a big role in how a club ascends to a whole different level, and I say that as a Milan fan, who was bankrolled by a sugerdaddy in the late 80's from bankruptcy, although we actually DID have history before that as well 😀😀
But I also do think that the money spending in general has gone out of control in the game, and the Neymar transfer certainly didn't help either by doubling the previous record.
Thanks for watching, and the comment. Really appreciate it 🙏
Of course they bought success
Objectively, yes !!! 😀
Man United, the coping is insane with some of them. Arsenal is up there, and this is from a gooner, some of the guys here are too impatient, too emotional, and are setting their expectations too high. Chelsea are like United, they are coping like crazy and they glaze up their players too much when they are on a good run of form.
Idk if they is a group of fans who are distinctly annoying. It’s exaggerated with some of rivals, but it’s also has some true
Hey Benjamin. Thank you soooo much for leaving a comment. Really appreciate it.
To be fair, I'd say we're all guilty of that. Every club (including my own Milan) will have its own set of fans that are nuts :))
Injuries cost Chelsea the title in 1998/99, had Casiraghi, Flo and Poyet stayed fit they could've easily won it all.
Yeah, it was quite close...and only behind a brilliant treble-winning United.
1:40 what's a "chamion"? 😆
Ohhh shit...terrible typo...my bad 😀😀
Not sure how that slipped. Thanks for the comment 👍👍
I wonder if they will retain the UCL this season 🤔
I think they're the most "safe" choice, along with City. Most others are in a weird transition era, but who knows. This could really be interesting. I feel like this year could be a surprise. Maybe a team that's been in turmoil for the first half of season, the way Chelsea were last year at this point. Who knows...maybe a troubled team like Juve or United? 😀😀
Make stanford bridge video please. 10q
It's certainly an interesting story. Definitely worth doing a video on. I just added it on my topic list. Thank you for the comment, my friend. Really appreciate it. 🙏🙏
Chelsea did it in a much moral way then Man City or PSG ever attempted to do
look at last 5 years player sales revenue to get a start to see why.
One thing I appreciated in Chelsea, when Abramovich took over, was that they didn't hide behind fake sponsorships and stuff. Chelsea were like "Yep...we have a sugar daddy, and we're gonna come and get you". Obviously, back then, there wasn't FFP, but Chelsea didn't hide behind fake sponsorships, and eventually adapted to a more self-sustaining model. I don't know what will happen to City or PSG, if their owners leave
@@FootballDrawn not to mentioned i'd love to have Abramovich as an owner at my own club that i support (i go for Milan too since 2006ish :) )
He used to go to every home game before his visa issues, and every quarter/semi-final game he would attend no matter what, can be no denying it was a passion project for him not just a plaything and he left them being able to be self-sustained.
@@Freestyle80 Ohh awesome dude...It's sooo good to see fellow Milan fans in the channel. Honestly, I never thought I'd have this many Milan fans over here when I started this channel. Much love :))
0:50 missed the H lol
Ohh shit...massive mistake 😀😀
Thanks for letting me know. I fixed it in the video title, but unfortunately, that portion of the video is published and I can't change it. Lesson learned for next time :)
@@FootballDrawn It’s common and ok
