Seriously, money doesn't make a good team as I have said, then Real Madrid would be alot better than they currently are. Now Man UTD ain't exactly got a shit team either yet they can't compete with Chelsea. Today they got outplayed and shoulda lost, they made about 2 chances. Now whether you spend 800 billion or 5 million on a team, Ruud, Rooney and Ronaldo should play alot better than they did today.
If you can buy the best players around at any price and have a Manager who can get the best out of them then money helps a great deal as well as other non-ecnomical factors of cousre.

I don't even see the problem, you lot are acting like they go around the top teams buying their star players, they bought Robben who barely anyone knew, and look at him, amazing player.
They do. PSV is one of the top teams in Holland and Robben was probably their best player, and everyone i know knew who he was, which is why ManU wanted him but Chelski were able to pay more money.Also Drogba(Marseille best player), Cole(West ham's best player),Duff (Blackburn's best player), Crespo, Essien, Makelele, Carvalho and SWP. (Money helped)

"buying players just so other teams cant have them or buying star players that they dont need"
Like who? and like who again?
Like SWP who is always on the bench and was coveted by Arsenal till Chelski payed £10M too much and Essien (who they did not need cause they had Smertin,Jarosik,Tiago,Geremi and J.Cole who could play there no problems)

And Chelsea never exactly had shit players to begin with, well unless Terry, Duff, Crespo, Gallas, Bridge, Cole and lampard etc can be considered shite.
I think you'll find that they did. Pre Abromovich, Duff, Crespo, Bridge, Cole, Makelele etc were not around only players like Stanic, Petit,Gronkear etc were around. And we all know what was about to happen to Chelsea with that bunch. (Money helped)
Yes Mourinho is a superb Manager of players cause we've seen what he has done with little money, but if your saying that money did not play a significant part in making chelsea what they are today your wrong, very wrong.
