"In Italy you think first and then you run. In the Premier league you run as you're thinking" - Kalidou Koulibaly, Chelsea FC
As a Chelsea season ticket holder of over 30 years, I found this enlightening. Boehly is an intelligent and successful businessman with a clear vision of what he wants to do at Chelsea. and the brutal the sacking of the ever-popular Thomas Tuchel proves he will be ruthless in discarding anyone who does not align with his thinking.
On one level I am excited about the future, but at the same time I am apprehensive and somewhat sceptical. He is right in identifying that the Premier League is the 'premier' global sports brand and that there are potentially untold untapped riches to be made if he is able to commercialise Chelsea in the way he is planning.
However, football, especially in England is very traditional and adverse to change so he has a big job on his hands. In 50 years, Bohley will either be viewed as a visionary who changed football forever, or an upstart American entrepreneur who bit off more than he could chew and got his fingers burnt. It will be fascinating to see which one of those two it is.
I don’t think he’s looking to change football fundamentally just improve in some of areas he sees deficient. He has a lot to learn but it seems he is open to learning and has learned a lot, hopefully the cringe level of his some of his comments will decrease as he learns.
This is refreshing to hear from an owner. Considering that we never heard anything from Abramovich, besides the odd offical club statements. I really like how Todd and his team have identified issues with existing loan system and player development. I'm sure they have a long list of things that need to improve in both business and football and they seem to moving quickly.
This business has tended to attract the super wealthy who have looked at it as a passion. Typically those that have bought into it and operated it as a business haven't had much success because until the media money came in, football clubs have been a drain on resources. Liverpool are the exception, but nobody has aggressively chased revenue. It's an interesting take, and if you look at the trajectory in recent years, its enormous but it hasn't reached it's full potential because it's still very much a niche sport in China & India. As a fan, I want this guy to spend big money on the best players. I don't care whether he does it through his own pocket or through money he makes, we want to win. Although I take your point about tradition, you don't want to be fleeced as a fan at every opportunity because the club you love has decided to prostitute itself. But listening to him, he's a bright boy, he'll make mistakes but I think we are heading in the right direction.
@@Agtsmirnoff concur . He did not speak negatively about Tuechel . And this is the third time Tuechel had problems with owners or club management . And it’s his last three clubs . That’s a pattern . A coach has to align with his superiors . Although I agree with Tuechel not to buy Ronaldo ( on Rangnicks advice - the two know each other well ) , it’s ultimately the decision of those who have the money to decide . Tuechel has a masters degree in business . He should know that .
@@AliHussain-fz7pd nonsense . You are only looking at premier league , but there is other sports and other countries . In EPL , City is a good example of how money has transformed the club . And have a look a usa
THIS MAN VISION IS JUST ABOUT BUSINESS AND NOT TROPHIES
Holy shit....I didn't even know he was behind A24 too....Pretty much everything this man touches turns to gold and he's only 48 years-old.
I did not know that either, that is incredible from him. such a good film company
Boehly's 4-4-3 system will revolutionise the game of football. 🤭
He would change the name Chelsea Soccer Club
I've said it before and I'll say it again - Todd Boehly is Roman's farewell gift to Chelsea ❤
And here I thought the £1.5 billion of debt forgiveness was his main farewell gift. Can you imagine ??
No, but seriously, RA had nothing to do with it. In fact, the Raine Group, who RA DID hand select to oversee the vetting of candidates and final decision process had people that were cozy with the Ricketts Family out of Chicago and tried to give them a boost. If that one member of the family wasn't a unabashed racist and another one a homophobe, who knows what would have happened? I was despondent. I thought the fix was in. They would have Glazered us back to the late Victorian era. No, Boehly/Clearlake made it happen by being the best candidate in category after category. Implying a link between this ownership and the last is inviting unwarranted criticism and unwanted scrutiny..
I'm not sure I wanted Nick Candy English Owner Chelsea Fan and no hidden agendas. I am always suspect of American's in European Football. The decisions on transfers have been a bit muddled and Potter is an experiment.
It's going well so far 🤣
As a Chelsea supporter from 1967 has seen the bad and good times. Interesting in what Boehly was saying, he still has a lot to learn about the EPL. I believe Chelsea is now in good hands and the future is bright.
Your old lol 😂
Todd Boehly many thanks for talking and your warm positive responses.
Life long Chelsea supporter
WELCOME AND THANK YOU.
@@abdifatahhassan4510 your parents aint old or what? Soon you will be, nothing to laugh about
The guy hasn’t got a clue about football he’s American
@@Stupidestvideos yeah but he acknowledges that tho lol football culture (supporters and all that is the same) but football as an entertainment/global business is changing, time will tell if the club reaps from them I guess 😅
Let's just take a moment to appreciate the fact that we didn't get a "Glazer" for a owner. Todd actually has a VISION for the future.
We are lucky honestly as Chelsea fans. To go from one owner who cared for the club to another who cares just in a different way.
Roman made sure of that when he selected Boehly's bid.
Lets see how he does first before we judge.
Talking is easy - that's why everyone does it..... so far he sounds utterly brainless..... He admits he doesn't know anything & needs to hire experts to learn than proceeds to tell everyone how the PL should function..... He has no idea the amt of negative pressure coming his way if Chelsea fail to win Immediately.... Thank God we have the Chelsea Pitch Owners
@@jackzeldon2883 Chelsea fans have already lower their standard massively with Tuchel. Praising mediocrity after CL win. Boehly will be fine with new dof and recruitment.
Bit too early to judge... No?
7 months later, where's Chelsea now? lol
He wants Chelsea to be at the very top of global football. That's for sure.
Let's hope he can deliver.
Lesson from this interview: passion for growing revenue is different from passion for the game.
😄😄😄
Never could imagine Roman doing an interview like this.. its refreshing to see. Potter was right, Todd is very intelligent however as Chelsea fans we hope his passion remains the same down the years as well..
We don't care for this type of thing though.
Nobody has more passion than Roman please, these Americans cares about the money and kill your club
@@jt19933 sure its easier to care for an owner who never speaks to the media. You never know how or where the money came from. Even if its aiding in a war. as long as he keeps on pumping money in the club and leaves it full of debt. Thats way easier to get behind. nice one mate.
"The challenge Chelsea have now, . . is to put the 18, 19 yr old super stars' development in someone else's (paraphrased ).Our goal is to make sure we can show pathways for our young superstars to get onto the Chelsea pitch while getting them real game time". I waited for someone to voice this for this for years!
Good interview Todd. I hope the vision and plans you’ve got for my beloved club Chelsea comes to fruition.
As a Chelsea fan of 30 years that also has a Marketing Degree I found this conversation fascinating. I agree with Todd on how he can see growth but there will be hard push back against it by the football fans and governing bodies which are ultra conservative and traditionalist. My idea is that the Premier League need to have their own app and fans can watch their club without needing a TV package subscription so the money goes directly to the Premier League and not TV companies. I am very excited for the future of Chelsea with Todd and the Clearlake group as owners.
He make chelsea laughing stock
I’m impressed by Todd. He’s vision is clear for the club. I like the fact that he admits to not knowing much about the game but will get the right people in place who do.
Wow this is a very impressive and educational interview. I like how he has taken time to learn about the club and has already built a philosophy of he's own. I now have great belief in him as the one of the new owners, the man is knowledgeable and decisive, he's also a visionary and seems well organized. Excited about the future of the blues, next up he must get the sporting director at Brentford.
Interesting key note. Todd is definitely impressive and has learned extremely quickly as sporting director at Chelsea.
Very impressive! I can’t see how Chelsea can degrade under his ownership, especially now that we know he is not just all words, meaning we saw him investing historic amount of money on new players and pragmatically firing the popular manager Tuchel. Overall , his words and actions combined are anything but assuring that Chelsea is on course to continue being amongst the top 5-7 elite football teams in the world. His business knowhow also indicates Chelsea’s finances would be intact too and the global foot print is going to increase.
Kdb and Salah are apparently home grown talents of Chelsea, yeah he's a genius all right.
I did laugh a bit when he said that, they were both young when they left as was Tammy Abraham so I understand the confusion
Im sure he appreciates your useless comment. Apart from all other teams he co-owns or is involved in he knows all the players their wives ,children, great parents and their ancestors. For a club he just recently bought , i think he dropped the ball big time , do you own any clubs.
@@elvinmani941 gotta love a lovesick puppy who defends it's master who doesn't even know it exists.
@@killercook2656 says the dog that barks at anything...here's a stick.
@@elvinmani941 keep it maybe gift it to to your master
Very intelligent owner we are looking forward to seeing more success on and off the pitch Mr Todd
It's so refreshing to see an owner really being open about their vision and plans for the club.
There was no panic with Tuchels dismissal. When Tuchel pushed out Tammy it was clear he didn't want to coach players up. When he pushed for Billy to be sold to Brighton Tuchel had pretty much sealed his fate. As soon as that happened I said to people that it was clear Tuchels vision wasn't in line with the new owners and he had one foot out of the door. People said I was stupid for saying he was near being sacked but the sale didnt fit with recent signings of young talent with high potential. Billys intelligence and creativity is also just what Chelsea have been lacking. It was also pretty clear with the amount of business done with Brighton that there was a lot of sniffing around Potter going on. Its a shame Boehly didn't just refuse to sell Billy or seal a low buyback knowing Potter would be the perfect coach for him.
For now I really believe Potter is the right choice for the clubs vision and desire to be more sustainable. I hope it lasts a long time. Long enough at least for Lampard to get enough track record to return. Without him we wouldn't hear Todd talking about Tammy, Reece, Mount etc. Lampard literally added hundreds of millions and potentially more in value to the team through his implementation of the academy with the 1st team.
Great interview. I loved that he talked abit about the vision he had when it cames to Chelsea because then its easier to understand some of the decisions they have made and will make in the future. Excited times ahead. KTBFFH
Evertonian here, what an absolute f*cking whopper this fella is. Thanks
Hey why don’t you win a game first
'evertonian here' no one cares mate, focus on getting your first win :)
Good luck with avoiding relegation mate ;)
So easily impressed. He said nothing of note
The way the guy is articulating the details of the premier league and football in general shows he has an astute understanding of what he has got himself into. This gives me hope as a Chelsea fan😊😊.
after seen this I now fully trust and back Todd 100%. I just hope he is making the correct decisions etc. seems like a nice and very intelligent guy.
Really nice interview to get to hear from Todd, thanks!
My full respect to this man. 💯 He is open minded and sees opportunities clearly
I love how they both call Chelsea a franchise and they call the Premier League the Premiere League
I live this HES more informed than the English media thinks they think he’s just spending carelessly but guess what he has a visions and plan to take us where we reallyBELONG💙
I was very bleak about the Tuchel sacking but after this interview I feel a lot better. He wasn't sacked because he wasn't adequate enough, it was a pure business decision and I have to respect that.
Also remember that TT was sacked after two years in his last three clubs , each time after issues we owners .
TT was sacked because he would have wanted full control over incoming and outgoing players. Todd wants to choose the players and with Graham Potter he will be a yes man, much easier for Todd to get the players he wants an example Ronaldo and Neymar would have been purchased if TT wasn't manager.
@@ryanreeve8515 well Tuechel was given that control. Then he complained that it was all too much and did not want too much responsibility .
Whats “business decision”?
He's definitely intelligent. We are seeing some signs of his vision for Chelsea FC. And it safe to say Chelsea FC will definitely grow immensely under Todd and co.
And what visionis that.. spending somuch money and then thinking about hiring DOF.. hes clearly being a cowboy andsacking great TT. years of misery is on the horizon with these americans..
He is not lost. He is well informed and has a vision. That's all I can ask for. Now let's make the vision real.
From 9:10 when he begins to talk about how to develop the academy players by handling their progress instead of just leaving it up to chance by other teams was pretty impressive. I like how straight forward he is with these questions and giving an insight on what he sees could be improved on.. pretty telling.
I just like the fact that he's not taking the academy for granted and recognizes that it's one of the best and looking to build upon on what The Masia was able to pull off but make it unique to Chelsea is promising.
It means he would spend less in the future to make chelsea more profitable for the owners. It is good. But the problem with that approach we must lower our expectations for more trophies, because depend heavily on academy need long process, just like liverpool, klopp need five years to get what achieve
@@tomster95 that is pretty true man, there would be that added issue of time/patience on waiting for these players to come through and maybe running the risk of not being "successful" or "competitive" with the other big spenders.. only time will tell
How can you develop the academy with that much attention while competing at the top? Fans have to be realistic, you’re not gonna be competing for silverware and titles with this approach. Chelsea fans aren’t gonna like it.
At first I didn't believe in their Consortium. Bt through progress he has made in the boardroom staffs, Chelsea women the U21 and men teams is really incredible. We are happy to have him us our owners, I kwn abromovich error will not die easily in our heart bt the effort Todd doing will pay some day.#always blueforevertheblues. 💪💪
Todd is so intelligent men, the way he talk ( within short time interval) he understand many things & idea's, epl global fanbase power etc ..... present & future. We are cooking something delicious 😋💙
Amazing interview. We’re going right to the very top. Todd…you’re giving us hope. Seems like the vision is clear 🥹💙👑
Great chat around talent & Human capital. This is a great lesson 👏
As a Chelsea fan, I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Todd and hearing his ideas. Nothing but the best of luck from me!
I'm confident about Chelseas future under Todd. He has big plans and ideas and I see Chelsea becoming his No.1 project
Very smart man and looking forward to the new look chelsea! #KTBFFH 💙 Cmon Chelsea!
He will take us right back to the top. No doubts
He will take us to mid table , these Americans are lie bags and I will never trust an American at all.
We can see by appointing potter , what a shame .
No doubts
I like his ideas. It will be interesting to look back at this in 10 years time🤞🏻
I will be 37😨😨😨💔💔😭😭😭
@@homeofdlsplayers2029 i will be 34… crazy
I'll be 33, richer and happier than now😁
@@Iamdubai lucky u guyz😭😭😭.... these yeare scare me
Q. What's most different about owning a premier League franchise...?
A. The fact that it's not a franchise.
I can follow such a vision for Chelsea FC from Todd.
Very insightful.
Top quality content, top quality owner , top quality club
Content and club correct… the owner nope! Worse than the glazers
This man really said Salah and De Bruyne came from our academy...
Quite an insight and passion! Even though Salah and KDB weren’t from our academy, they were lost so cheaply and could have served us if we had sustainable system in place! TB has clear vision, our academy must be so happy now!
"When you take over any business..." it already makes me sick
He seems pretty knowledgeable, given his exec level and the short time he has been with Chelsea.
When u take over any business, you have to show whos the boss
We will see where his ideas take us in 10 years time, I really trust him
He's good and smart and all. But not even one question if he loved the have or the club?!? Everything ended up in biz terms. This is pure biz for him!
Just a correction Boss Boehly: Salah we bought from FC Basel and De Bruyne from FC Genk. The rest of the mentioned players are our true CFC academy graduates.
Impressed by your passion and vision for CFC, boss. I’m confident that with time we’ll rise again to our rightful place.
Mo Salah ,De Bruyne From Cobham that Make Me Cry As Chelsea Fans 👀🥺😭😭
Wow! Thank u Roman and The rain group for giving us Todd
In Todd we trust
Thank you so much for this. Love you Boss Todd.
As chalsea fan i see great vision in Boehly’s interview
This guy has my vote..he knows how to put a vision into place..firing the coach was on e of the best things i took as a man with a vision in motion.
interviewer asked the perfect questions
Boehly knows what’s he is doing we’re good hands. We’ll still continue to win trophies throughout the years
As Chelsea fan, I'm so excited! 💙💙
Boehly should do a video like this addressing the fans directly!!! the backlash would've been no where near the level it was if he just told us the reasoning1
Will someone please teach him the basics?
11 players, 1 is goalie, 10 outfield - 4 4 3 cannot be a thing.
English Premier League footballers work for most of the year, unlike the American system where there is 3 months holiday. This is why a North vs South competition is not possible in the schedule. The top clubs are actually trying to reduce the number of games, not increase them.
Is he just another American who dreams about money but not about protecting the club and it's supporters and winning?
I like his idea of investing in a Portuguese club that can give us more control over developing our talented academy players & young signings. We can make it feel like a "home away from home", where the players can develop good relationships with each other both on & off the pitch, which can potentially translate to our first teams. We can even adjust the style of the team so the systems are like-for-like.
We did it with Eredivisie.
disgraceful. you can't be a football fan. liga portugal being used as a training ground what about fans of clubs in liga portugal ruin their league to benefit some American fat cat.
@@Wiintb not to the extent we could have
This guy is fvucking brilliant man! I really enjoyed listening to this talk
His language was revealing how he sees the world. Not a team but a franchise, not people but capital, not players but products. Fans are just a revenue source from part of his portfolio and the club means nothing to him other than a cash cow and a potential ego boost. Tuchel was never going to be his puppet.
Now I’m trying to theorize about what club in Portugal 🇵🇹 or Belgium 🇧🇪 he’s looking to acquire. 😮
Found that interesting. Thought Vitesse would have been the natural choice given the existing relationship between the clubs.
I trust this man has passion for sports though he is not an expert in that department but he is good business man . He can employ the best in their departments to take the club forward and Chelsea will be a force to reckon with once again.
in the long run - i believe Todd Boehly + his partners would 100% succeed at Chelsea. they may get some of their judgments wrong-of course (rational people would understand this). but, overall, these guys are sound, practical, and creatively unconventional in their approach to building things - which is an absolutely needed quality into creating something beautiful and trailblazing. Chelsea shall rise again and even more particularly - set a direction that’d have been proven to be successful for others to copy. i firmly believe in the instincts of Boehly & Co.
Great interview owning a global talent pool is impressive!
I didn't think there could be a more ambitious owner than Roman Abramovich but here he is!
😂 boehly made chelsea laughable club
Some interesting points. I'm still not convinced he knows what he's doing in English Football, but I think he'll obviously do his best, for his investors for a start.
De Bryune secretly trained at our academy , Nice :D
An interesting insight into Todd's vision for Chelsea football club, only 27 minutes long but 27 minutes more than we got from Roman.
Roman did us proud for almost 20 years and kept us thinking every 2 years who our next manager was going to be, lots of trophies and success with a number of ups and downs with 2 champions league winners medals. What's Todd's Chelsea got in store for us Chelsea fans for the next twenty years? Another 2 Champions league winners medals by any chance, you know Todd will want that. Strap yourself in for the ride, I think by the amount of travel to get players in for the new season and the amount of meetings and phone calls he must have made he definitely is looking to hit the ground running and get a Squad fit for success and a top four finish, along with a trophy- that would be nice.
Good luck Mr Boehly. We will be successful because you are a hugely successful businessman and not only intelligent but smart with a vision for our future. Glazers and Kronkes just stay as you are, all money money money and no vision for the club or respect for the fans or the club you now own.
The only thing american capitalists respect is money. That's it. Say goodbye to your club ...its now a cash cow for American capitalists who don't even like the game
You also have to keep in mind that Abramovich forced many conditions prior to purchase on the new owner for the next 10 years so we'll only be able to tell his true colours after that period to some. Abramovich will go down as CFC's greatest owner even if boehly wins more simply because he did whatever he could to protect the club from thieving owners.
Roman didn't buy Chelsea to make money.. But Todd did!!
He's trying to turn Chelsea into UTD and how their owners work.
@@KingArtoriusTV Well at least he wont be able to do a lot what the glazers did with utd for at least 10 years. With the Americanisation of the UK to some extent and football teams being bought out by Americans, it's worrying times ahead. American owners should be banned outright in the UK
@@MrAce86Productions Source please. Abramovich forced nothing. He was completely impotent from an ownership perspective from the day the sanctions came down. He had been scrambling to sell it since he made the announcement out of the blue that he was passing ownership to the Chelsea Charitable Trust in preparation to sell it. That's when he was giving stipulations. All of that changed on March 10th. Spreading misinformation and trying to invite suspicion of someone who has given no provocation for it is strange. If you were better informed or even care to be, it's easy enough to go and look at his and other members of the ownership's track record when it comes to sports team ownership. You're worried about the fans getting ripped off in 10 years when 3/4 of Europe can't afford to heat their homes and Russia is slipping that word nuclear into their rhetoric more and more everyday. I'm surprised you chose to dig so far to find a boogie man.
I love the vision the Boehly consortium has for Chelsea
Football is a serious business n not just the entertainment aspect. Boehly should hire me in his administration. Great job ,man. Graham Potters improving very well.i wish him all the best;his motivation n how he rotates the team giving each player opportunity to develop themselves. Tuchel never knew this! No wonder the same with PSG.
Enjoyed it, thank you.
10:30 Didn't realise FC Basel and Genk are part of the Chelsea Academy
Although I may not agree with every decision made from Boehly and Co. you cannot deny the man has ambitious and has big plans for Chelsea. After hearing this interview I’m more confident of a sustainable success model being implemented.
As an Attack Helicopter I'm looking forward to seeing what Tawd does in the Premieeeeer League
I think he won us all over after the tuchel sacking with this interview, this is what we needed sky shuldv done this
I see his vision is to make Chelsea to have a proper structure from the bottom all the way up in terms of development of it's players. All Chelsea fans know that we have a great academy, but except a very little few, the rest does not really have a chance of progression to the first team. A long term 1st team manager can help set the academy to produce players according to his requirements, and wants to use these players. TT didn't want the academy players he got as it doesnt fit his style and vision, hence the difference of direction. Tammy & Gilmour is a great example.
The future seems bright. Just need to go thru the growing pains.
#KTBFFH
What happened to Tammy is shameful!
@@Agtsmirnoff Tammy was not good enough & most Academy players just not good enough.... Tammy was benched by Frank after he hit the wall & the younger players won only 12 of 26 PL Gm's in 19/20' - To rescue Top 4 Frank switched to Vets, specifically Giroud for Tammy & Oli G saved Top.... 20/21' Tammy started 9 of 19 PL Gm's as Frank mixed & matched desperately trying to find a winning combination......
Younger Chelsea fans who only know Roman have no clue how lucky they are to be a Buying Club - there are only about 7 in all of Europe......
Meanwhile, Chelsea supporters are crying about giving younger players a chance when younger players do not win trophies.....
This obsession that Chelsea fans have with the academy is baffling.
I heard the host call Chelsea (est. 1905) a franchise 1 minute in and wanted to puke.
noun: franchise; plural noun: franchises; noun: the franchise
(chiefly in North America) an ownership structure in professional sports in which a league is limited to a fixed number of teams.
So a man from North America described owning a professional sports team like Chelsea as being in a leage of a fixed number of teams. God I know you hate him for being American, but do some fucking homework.
@@14tralfaz I hate no one for being American. Been a fan of NFL and College since I was very young. Had multiple great holidays to America. Respect the culture. It's a Club. Respect.
@@14tralfaz 'an authorization granted by a government or company to an individual or group enabling them to carry out specified commercial activities, for example acting as an agent for a company's products'. All English football clubs operated before the need for this authorisation. They were and still are clubs so they literally aren't franchises. Without any money Arsenal would still exist for example, the Jaguars would not. Don't compare our cultured history of Football with your absolute MK Dons mentality of time. dO sOmE hOmEwOrK.
@@flawleics9135 I agree completely! But what I was driving at is the EPL is essentially like the NFL or any franchised American team. There are only 20 teams per year that split the revenue of the EPL. If you are not there then you are not a part of that sharing. Sure the structure is not the same as the NFL but the structure of distributing media rights which is where they make money is only distributed to those in the EPL.
@@14tralfaz That's factually not true, some of the money gets sent further down the pyramid, and franchise leagues like the NFL are usually protected teams, where as the Prem will have 3 new teams every year. It literally isn't a franchise league by all definitions. The only franchises in football are the likes of Red Bull group, King Power group, Etihad group etc but they are only franchises pertaining to their business model, but in the eyes of the football leagues those teams are not individually franchises as none of the teams are.
In Todd we trust !
Cmon Chelsea 💙💙
I cant believe he said de bruyne and salah are from the chelsea academy 😭😭 hes still got a lot to learn
Out of everything he said so that’s the only thing you picked up🤦🏾♂️ sometimes we have to look at the big picture
well they have academy games for chelsea
help me find what time in the video it says it? tks
Boehly was discussing “18, 19, 20 year old superstars” and also academy kids and their development when he mentioned Salah, DeBruyne, Tammy, Mason, etc. Back then Salah and KDB were sold because they couldn’t get enough playing time at Chelsea. Finding an affiliated team for them to play in and develop would solve that problem.
They were scouted young and cheap. After Emenalo, we have been very shit for scouting young players.
That idea to have a second team like Red bull, that was big brain.
Brilliant . A welcome addition to the premier league
Man said Mo Salah and Kevin DeBruyne xD
His vision is so unique, the guy is real
He’s so American lol
The good and bad.
The Kalidou comment. 🤣🤣
He seems to know what he is doing. Chelsea fans can relax. Time will tell if he gets the big decisions right. Onwards and upwards. Come on Chelsea.
Feel confident with Boehly after watching this, bit skeptical but this interview swayed me. Blue blood
Nice interview.Shame the gossip msm is already spinning some of the interview out of context (talksport this early morning).Thank you Roman and best of luck to Todd.😁👍🏾👍
Love from India now we are better than before 💙
STAMFORD BRIDGE DEVELOPMENT WILL MAKE US ALL HAPPY....NEW LEVEL 😀😀👑💙🙏.....
Superb Todd!!!
Time stamps? Anyone
