Whats going to happen if Roman leaves, or if the Bank of Abramovic closes for business?

What do you think about the loyalty of the players, will they take a wage cut? Will Chelsea do a 'Leeds'?

He'll just sell it to some other Russian billionaire. There seems to be loads of em. Chelsea will dominate for 10 years at least. Cmon the Blues.

I think they will do a Leeds if that does happen, but I think it won't happen anyway! Unless Abramovic gets bored or something… Before he invested in Chelsea he was looking at NHL teams, maybe he'll go back to that. Well I don’t think Chelsea will win the League with all that money or not.

It's quite conceivable that Abramovic will get bored, though. Let's face it, when he growing up in Russia, he wasn't watching Chelsea every week on the TV, shouting 'Come on-ski you Blues' was he?

I heard, from somewhere, could have been a dream, that abramovic was leaving the club to his son once he had finished playing football god? anyone hear anything like that?

But who's to say his son won't just flog them off to the highest bidder?

I'd love it if his son was a Gooner

Very true... I would love it if his son was a scouser! Would help Liverpool a lot... but I think at the moment Liverpool just need sum sorting out by Rafa that’s all. Same with Arsenal, the team is fine; all they need is practice with their players.

Never heard anything like that. You're all just jealous because we can buy anyone we like and will keep on winning the league forever.

We're also jealous of being the most hated team in the league

But ok we all take the point, I don't know anyone who wouldn't want their team to have stack loads of cash but at the same time, If i were a Chelsea fan i would still be worried that Mr Abramovic is NOT going to be around forever and when the bank of Abramovic does close, where is the money for the wage bill going to come from?

Take last season, £115m on WAGES compared to West Broms £5m.. and thats before Shevchenko and Ballacks £5.6m a year each!!

Chelsea will be the next Leeds in the next 10 years.

There are other candidates for the next Leeds...Newcastle United being high up the list. But regardless of what blueisthecolour says, Chelsea without Abramovich will free fall faster than Sheffield Wednesday and Wimbledon put together.

Will they bollocks. There's loads of millonaires fishing around premiership clubs. Abramovic will just sell to one of them. Even if he doesn't, they're promising to put Chelsea on a proper business footing within 3 years or something, so it will run itself after that. Doesnt matter who owns it then.

I'd like to know where a 'proper' business footing will generate £100m + from.

despite the iranian fellow sniffing around West Ham, i dont recall any teams across Europe being bought by millionaires who give them millions to buy useless talent with,

Perhaps im wrong, any clubs across Europe got lucky like Chelsea?

Take Fulham, millionaire bought them out but didnt spend hundreds of millions of his own money and as such the club are still in midtable mediocrity

Abrahamovich is one reason why Chelsea are strong and are doing well in the league. He has the money to the needful for the club. If he leaves it will mean  a difficult period for the London club.

A team like Chelsea will always attract rich owners for two reasons.... money making potential, and the status of owning a huge team.

Definitely- Abrahamovic is ultimately the money behind Chelsea. And its is his money that has brought together the team that Chelsea are so proudly fielding in the league..
I don't think they'll be screwed as such if he leaves because he's already done most of the hard part of raising the level of the club..now its down to the guys to get the results..

Yeah, like I said, (and in agreement with thegame) a team like this will always have a waiting list of people hoping to put their money into the team.

Losing the player is a common that situation that every professional or amateur team has to face of one point or another.  The outcome of such a scenario could be good or bad.  It just takes a little bit of time to discover what the final outcome will be
