If any of you Chelsea fans anticipate a monopolistic Chelsea regime in the English Premier League, please don't waste time on such dreams. It is better you switch channel and watch anything but a Chelsea game. Not that I have not had such agony as a Chelsea fan before. I have experienced worse times. Something made me hang on and later I saw shades of green on my hopes. That euphoria was only seasonal, and to be frank I never expected that to die before this winter. Roman Abramovich, you will kill the game of football. You already have killed Chelsea. Despite having won a Champions League and a few Premier League titles and many more FA Cup and League Cups, Chelsea FC appears to me as an under-achieving team, not worth its value in terms of money spent. Had Abramovich not laid his eyes on Chelsea, and had Chelsea been spared of his machiavellian plans, Chelsea would have faired better.

Yesterday's loss against West Ham United (1-3) was the right shock treatment that Chelsea needed. I now wish that Chelsea be not graced by luck anymore. It needs to undergo the hardest times ever. Let it face such hard times, let it survive, and let it come out with harder mettle. For this Abramovich has to change his ways, or he will soon find himself changed. Guess who would change him from his throne? Himself! If Chelsea continues its run like it has been of late, soon the club will be in huge losses - revenues from advertising and broadcasts will plummet and Abramovich will be forced to sell Chelsea FC. Abramovich has sacked many famous managers, without giving breathing space to any of them. Alberto di Matteo was the most unfortunate of all, he was a promising man and very much liked by all in the Chelsea team. By sacking di Matteo, Abramovich has placed the last nail on Chelsea's coffin. I have lost all hope but love for the team forces me to watch how Rafael Benitez guides a demoralised team through the rest of the season.
