Chelsea are set to push for a £1.5bn rebuild of Stamford Bridge.
John Cross and Jonathan Liew discussed the options that would be available for Todd Bohely's club.
Under Roman Abramovich's ownership, Chelsea announced they had put plans for a new stadium on hold.
The club were given the go-ahead to start work on their new 60,000-capacity stadium by Hammersmith and Fulham council but plans were shelved in May of 2018.

Kudos for the poster in the background

Lol I’m surprised it was aired 😂
I saw this comment before watching the whole post 🤣😂😂.
Now I understand what you meant by it legend 😂😂😂😂.
Great piece of work
Very impressed with Jonathan and his pursue in the culture of art😅

They're rebuilding the stadium for that all star game.

🤣🤣🤣
Can’t wait to have the best stadium in the championship 😝😝
Gonna be turned to the next Superbowl yankee stadium
oo self burn those are rare...
@Blue Boy if ca do a Spurs and get American football amd events there the money be rolling in. One thing self made Billionaires do is make a tonne of money. People forget that Roman made us debt free and left a sneaky 1 billion in the club for luck as he put it.
Sunderland has the best stadium
@@bobs2kk401 Too sad money cant buy the crap football I’m seeing over there.
I think getting a bigger stadium is the least of Chelsea's issues right now. I like the stadium, it looks unique and has character but oh boy I sure can't wait for it to turn into a generic glass bowl.
That's exactly why I want it to be redone like Anfield. They kept their traditional features and just built on their existing stands. I get it is radically more expensive and more complicated for us but youre paying extra for character to be retained, something a total new build won't have. Arsenal are a perfect case study of why you shouldn't demolish a famous traditional stadium for a bowl
@@lorddiegocosta3307 👏👏💯💯
@@lorddiegocosta3307 anfield has been redone but most of the traditional features which has made it "special" and "historical" has been removed. I put quotation marks on special and historical because most of the stuff that anfield has had has never been historical per say anfield doesn't really have a historic stand with loads of history behind it like Highbury for example and its art deco stand. And don't say The kop end the kop end sounds like a generic name, kop just means a section of seats that's what it means and it isn't really historic like Highbury's art deco stand for example.
@@Extreme2SwaggerHD Well I was sort of implying architectural features when I meant historic, the lower stands still look like a traditional stadium and most of the bones of the older Anfield have been kept. Thats what I want us to do, but our only remaining 'historic feature' (in your interpretation) is the Shed Wall which isn't actually part of the stadium and I sure hope it isn't demolished no matter what route the club goes down
Problem is there's not much room to build on current stands maybe it would add 10,000 to the capacity but that's probably not worth the cost.
Should’ve gone to Battersea power station while they had the chance.
Not only would it have been more then big enough, it would’ve been close to the current ground, and would been one of the most iconic stadiums in the world with the chimneys!
If you remember Battersea development decided against a stadium. High end living spaces brought more money for them. Also, the deal Bates signed with the CPO meant it would have been tricky for Roman to just uproot and move the team.
People trying to talk crap it was agreed in the takeover contract Boehly had to spend at least a billion on playing staff and a further 1.5 billion at least on the stadium
@midsizesedan7620 It's in the contract, do your research 😂
@@midsizesedan7620 isnt that what the point is?
@@midsizesedan7620 that’s the point of owning a club surely

Given the availability of limited spaces in London arsenal and Tottenham are lucky in a way that already built stadiums as lands are taken for developments and apartments
As the fans own the pitch and do not want to sell it rebuilding/extending is the only option.
Not necessarily. CPO shares could transfer to the new ground if they moved to the Earls Court site for example. It's not impossible, only takes 75% of CPO to agree with a vision and should CPO shares transfer the ground and name is still in the hands of the fans.
This was the case in the past that’s why the abramovich vision was expanding under Stamford bridge
If only we can get the right manager
The only manager we need right now is Tuchel
@@Smiling_Ballers better get him again before Spurs sack conte
@blueboy1739 That something that won't happen as long as Boehly is there. Tuchel was sacked because of a falling out with Boehly in the first place. Bringing him back will not only be Boehly admitting he was wrong, but will render the 200 mil spent on Potter completely pointless.
Potter is the right man
@@goldie8501 Nahh if chelsea can give Mourinho another chance Real gives Carlo another chance , Toddy will be a genius. Just suck it up $200 million is peanuts to him
Yeah that was expected, Todd Boehly really want change everything about the club now
Agree, he's has changed them from a great team to a MEH team
He will turn it into Superbowl with hamburgers sandwiches with small drip of ketchup hotdogs everyday u bet
Does he ? Is that why we are sinking towards relegation?
Yeah he sure has. Made the club an absolute graveyard😂 long May it continue.
Perhaps we won't need bigger stadium the way it started.
Really can wait to see the New Stadium 🤩
The model is the States one: giving supporters "fan experiences", it's not about winning for the pleasure of win, victories it's mainly to elevate the prestige of the club and actract more money ( also from the fans). It's interesting the way they look at football, but I am not sure will fit in Europe ( even in a wealthy city like London is now...but in the future?)
Yeah I support him trying to make the club bigger and more profitable but he's gotta think about results eventually too
Honesty, Chelsea are better off building a New 80,000 Seater Stadium in the Earls Court site. Which is still empty after a decade.
More expensive
@@fudgerace4356 Would generate more revenue than a 60,000 seater stadium.
@@fudgerace4356 Initially, but the old ground could be sold for property development offsetting that expense.
They’d make a killing building property around there!
The Chelsea trust has opposed the idea to move away from the current Stamford bridge location and if they go against their will then they will threatened to take the name of Chelsea away from the owners of the club and the name will be sold to someone else, which Boehly will have to come up with another name for the club
We need a 20 feet Graham Potter statue made of gold at the entrance as well
🤣🤣
To be fair he's not a bad manager he has won as many trophies with Chelsea as Tottenham has.
🤦🏿♂️
Drogba, Terry etc... So many players before Potter
This is very good news to our team

@@SuperMcDoes Banter FC. Mind the gap. It’s only 29 points😂
It was confirmed a while back that all the plans of Stamford Bridge rebuild had been finalised during Abramovich's time and the only reason it didn't start then was because UK govt delayed his visa extension. So I don't understand all this talk now about how work still needs to be done. Cost was £1bn even at that time so it going up is understandable, but what's with making it seem like it all needs to start from scratch?
maybe a redesign by Boehly? Maybe he doesnt want the cathedral look.
Planning permissions expire and other things like that. Plus, value of land surrounding the ground has probably gone up significantly. The transport infrastructure is going to be the biggest problem as they're not going to move a railway line for the stadium, not without a HUGE sum as the disruption would be massive.
Money is literally with him 😂😂😂
Good for London Bohley has made the biggest player purchase in England now a stadium I love to see this merge work out like the NFL UK. So good revenue in to England.
For those who know the area, why dont they just build a new stadium at eel brook common, its big enough to hold a stadium and turn the stamford bridge area into a large park, i think thats not a bad idea, its less than 2 mins walk away
Another suggestion is to move slightly North to the Old Earls Court Exhibition Centre Land - infront of West Brompton Station. That land was sold in 2014 and still no work has started on a development, surely Chelsea could strike a deal and it would be better for the club as match going fans would get easy walking access to West Brompton and Earls Court station - where the Southern (National Rail) and TFL services all travel through) as apposed to Fulham Broadway currently who can only hold the District line to transport 40,000plus fans every game day which it struggles to do.
@@salkay7440 I don't know if Earls Court is actually large enough though, its got I think 3 railways to deal with rather than just one at Fulham Broadway
That doesn't look much bigger than the current stadium land.
Pray for Nigeria 😢
Wtf is happening??
When I read the comments about the pictures, when I saw it I was laughing my ass off 😂😂
Looking forward to that sounds great...
How about we get a team that deserves a new stadium to begin with ?
Great news
Using what funds? Or have they offered the stadium a 108 year contract?
I think you’re new round here… Todd Boehly might have 99 problems but funds isn’t one of them 😅
This was added in to the deal when they bought the club they have to developer the stadium it’s all with in budget don’t you worry
UEFA: 👀
Yeah something like that.... 😁
Why are they not consulting the fan on coach or management issues?
0:33 Now thats some background.;)
Getting our stadium ready for Championship football.
I remember since 2009 we heard about it but it never actually materialized till today and wonder the lack of passion in Abramovich era to rebuild Stamford Bridge. I think Todd Boehly is the man.
He could build a few extra dressing rooms for all the teams he will have accumulated
Roman was going to build then he got kicked out because of Geopolitics then forced to sell the club. He already had a design completed.
@@giths19 The project to rebuild Stamford Bridge started few years after Arsenal planned to rebuild Highbury and their plan succeed and even before Tottenham and west ham decided to built thier stadiums too. Roman was act shittly here
@@boickievilho7360west Ham didn’t build that stadium 😂😂😂it’s was built for the Olympics
This project has been on through Roman Abramovic, the man who really loves the club. But left the message along with the new owner to maintain, so is not a new thing. If Todd Boehly really wants to impact the Club now, he should first build the club with a quality football coach, who must be an elite in the business, with a quality signing of players. No doubt, he has managed some success in that department of building a good squad, but so far, has failed woefully by retaining a football coach meant for the likes of Gillingham football club or Millwall fc. So, he should not placate us fans with stadium development when, in fact, it's part of the condition he got Chelsea fc at the time of negotiations for the Club.
I can't... The poster🤣🤣 also stadium renovation is something good but too expensive
It's not one else has spotted it
You're a legend 🤣😂😂.
I understand what you meant by it 🤣😂😂
If only we can get the right manager in place
Just by looking at the Background you could tell Chelsea is not serious
we need to push for a win 1st
what artistic drawing on the wall jonathan🤣🤣
finally 💙.
I swear the chelsea owners hate money or maybe they're allergic to it with the rate they like to get rid of it
i hope this will be better than Spurs stadium.
Just give us another tier not a new stadium
Out of everything Chelsea could have done to improve the squad the board decide to renovate the stadium SMH
Huh
Huh
Did you miss the last two transfer windows bud?
Huh
Can’t finically dope any more like the Russian. That’s why they’re all increasing capacities. Luckily Arsenal were 15 years ahead 😌
That's positive 😊
CPO really needs to come to the party on this, how much longer will we delay this process.
No one wants a new soulless bowl, thats why they won't come to the party. And the CPO is the best representation of the fans, lets not act like a shiny new silent stadium is the best because thats what the internet says
CPO is not delaying anything.
@@lorddiegocosta3307 True.
Why don’t they just extend and redevelop the stands like Liverpool? Too many big clubs movie to lifeless stadiums and losing the core atmosphere of the club. Stanford bridge is a fantastic ground
Not enough space. Realistically I think the stadium needs to move to the west a bit to allow more space for a new East stand. Although we already know that a large chunk of cash is needed to improve the infrastructure in terms of routes to and from the ground. Currently the only way is via Fulham Road and safety regulations doesn't allow us to have a higher capacity because of that.
If Potter is still manager than the capacity might as well should be capped at 5,000
I dont know if you remember us in the 90s but we were struggling and we still got more than 5k and Ken Bates upgraded the stadium to what it is now.
@@giths19 I’m being facetious
@@maxsch8454 haaa sorry i missed that.
This could well be the best stadium in the league.
League One that is
Everyone is a financial analyst. Many can barely balance their own budget.
I will add more to that to keep Potter for 6 more years there!
Todd has found the infinite money glitch I’m gonna need that
Over a 70 year contract?
it's a right old tip
Sports journalists talking about stadium redevelopment was bound to be lacking in understanding🙄 Sky, interview someone who understands where this project is currently at (planning permission granted, will Abramovich’s vision be implemented or are they going to resubmit?) for example. The technical implementation issues aren’t insurmountable. Love the ‘dig down before they dig up’ comment from the all knowing Cross🤦
@1:14 why they knocking down Wembley 👀😂
He’s confused
Pushing? They either do it or they don't , no pushing required.
Hopefully we move to Wembley for 5 years I might be able to purchase a ticket with my chelsea membership I purchase every season
we need the napoli coach then that's it for 5 years !
Spot the picture in the background 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Legend 🤣😂😂😂
Something Postive for the Blues.💙💯
That’s not important for now
The poaster in the background 😂
At least we need 70k capacity
I hear they are thinking of renaming the stadium to Potter Bridge.
This is good news- more investment and redevelopment- hotels, apartments, offices and retail included
Where una dey see money Chelsea 🤔😱
Abramovich could do it, but chose not to when he lost his visa. Planning was in place, design was finalised etc.
Plenty of land around Lots Road and no railway in the way.
He’s not messing about 🤣🤣🤣
Why don't Chelsea bid for Arsenal's stadium.
Maybe they could fly a stadium in from Qutar
Modern news , always some guy voicing his personal opinion from his bedroom on a laptop.
Need a squad rebuild not a stadium rebuild
these men are mad
Chelsea are currently 9th this season in terms of average attendance in the Premier League at 39,000.. That is scarily low for a club of that size, they badly need a new, bigger stadium..
They could easily fill a 65,000+ stadium.. They’re missing out on so much money by not investing in the facilities. Chelsea should of done all of this years ago..
The question is where can they build a 65000+ stadium? they probably can't on the current location and that will have been why it has taken so long to get anywhere before now. They will have to relocate to a different part of london, and that will impact both their reputation amongst sponsors, fans and players as they'll lose some of their identity in the process, something that will take decades to rebuild at a new location. London land is incredibly sought after and expensive as well. Boehly can of course afford it, but is it going to be him building and owning the stadium or the club? will the club be saddled with paying off 1.5bn+ of debt for it? that 1.5bn could rise significantly if it takes 5-10 years given the effects of the UK economy and inflation etc.

This is how you do it spurs invest in the team and the stadium grate to see they have put a 50M bid to buy up land next to stamford bridge to give us more room to build we need a minimum 60K Sradium that is the very best in europe
You’ll be an old man when it’s done 👴🏻
The land is on the other side of the road and will not help in the actual stadium at all , the biggest problem is the rail line behind the stadium if it could be bridged and that end expanded now that’s a start
just keep digging or put it in sea the first underwater stadium?
Please keep Stamford Bridge as it is!
It's not big enough.
Thanks Chelsea. That puts even more pressure on Man Utd to fastly sell and invest in Old Trafford. A football club's stadium is the home, the symbol, the very important part of the history and it must be always a top priority.
Going to potentially be harder with the new ownership test announcement by the PL/FA for Utd to sell to certain groups.
New name will be Goaless Bridge.
Rebuilding the stadium sounds great but the club needs champions league football to help finance it.
Did he just say "knock down Wembley"?
Yes he did
