Same Old Song

Is there any depth that Chelsea won't stoop to? Is there any governing authority that can inflict a punishment that actually means something?

I'm referring of course to the outlandish charges that Chelsea have levied against Gallas here

Hmmmm, threatened the same thing last year? Why then was he allowed to play when Davey's boys were creeping up on them kinda sharpish in the late spring? Does such recklessness sound credible?

Hmmmm, can we trust the lying liars of Chelsea?

example - When the Ashley Cole story broke Peter Kenyon denied any such meeting took place while here’s a transcript of a Sky Sports interview with Jose Mourinho about the Ashley Cole meeting:

Mourinho: “On that day at that time I was in Milan, speaking with Adriano.”

Reporter: “So no contact was made with Ashley Cole?”

Mourinho: “I never met the boy. I just play against him. No more than that.”

He wasn’t in Milan. He wasn’t speaking to Adriano. He was in a hotel room with with Kenyon and Jonathan Barnett tapping up Ashley Cole just days before Arsenal played an important match. Add those lies to the unproven accusations about Anders Frisk, about Frank Rijkaard being in the referee’s dressing room and there’s a history of tall tales coming out of Stamford Bridge.

Maureenyo's arrogance was not in any way tongue in cheek. The bluster was OTT, and he went on to label Arsene Wenger a ‘voyeur’ in another personal vendetta he launched. He lacks humility and manners. He’s a great manager - although my mother could win the Prem given 250mil - but not much of a person - at least that’s the public image he projects.

Arsene Wenger said some time ago that the ‘moral leadership’ at Chelsea left something to be desired. He suggested that the owner should impose his standards on the club and that’s what has happened. Abramovich is a fantastically successful man but, by all accounts, a ruthless individual who knows what he wants and will do what he has to to get it.
