Mendi should have refused to come off, giving Kepa a taste of his own medicine! Still, Kepa got the job done.

Unfortunately due to how you've been hyper inflated by Roman nobody is ever going to much care. To be honest you and City winning these cups is to be expected, if you weren't it would be more of a story.

3 of those 8 were won prior to Roman's involvement.

And even the Spuds have won a trophy since City last won one in Europe....

You were lagging behind Spurs, Everton and probably a few other clubs in terms of trophies won prior to the lottery win though.

As I say, great if you’re a Chelsea fan but nobody else much cares what you City or PSG win anymore.

Not really. Just responding to a post shouting about how you’ve bought a Lambo having won the lottery. Big surprise. hehe

Isn't that stating the bleedin obvious?
Nobody else much cares what any club wins if it isn't your club?

Not really. United used to care about City winning but now it’s just a case of “so what, what do you expect?” Instead of much gnashing of teeth at your rivals success. It’s effectively taken away a lot of the rivalry. An oligarch at Liverpool would do likewise.

Gooners and Spuds I know speak similarly of Chelsea. You winning these cups doesn’t really affect them like it once did any more…your continued silverware collection since the arrival of RA is inversely proportional to your relevence to them.

I’m not saying this isn’t great news for you though, it’s just that something is lost when your competition thinks your success hasn’t been earned but rather handed to you.

Indeed.

Which team has won the Premier League since Jack Walker 'bought' the title for Blackburn that hasn't been backed by money from one source or another - oh that's right none of them.

Personally I'm not sure I class Chelsea quite in the same realm as City and PSG any more. Setting aside for the moment the incredibly shady owner, Chelsea haven't really been that active in the transfer market for several years. They were quiet for several windows, sold Hazard for a decent sum along with one or two other fringe players and then were able to take advantage of those sales in a depressed market at a time when no one else was buying. And now they're reaping the rewards.

I do have far more interest in the likes of Leicester competing for top four places, or self sustaining clubs like Liverpool, Utd or Spurs entering a title challenge, but IMO City and PSG are blatantly flouting FFP, whereas in recent years I think Chelsea have tried to remain within it.

At a guess from your comments I'm going to suggest you support that Red team from Manchester with a higher net spend than us over the last 10 years, with less trophies to show for it.
