As you say a major issue is centred around... who is steering this ship..? It isn't great to see two youngsters choosing Chelsea over us however. We might not want the players.. but
it is symbolic that we are now on that side of the Klopp bounce
A factor, potentially - sure.
But I think it's worth reminding ourselves that Chelsea won the -
04/05 Premier League
05/06 Premier League
09/10 Premier League
14/15 Premier League
16/17 Premier League
and the -
11/12 Champion's League
20/21 Champion's League
whilst also being pretty consistent with FA Cup wins as well -
2006/07
2008/09
2009/10
2011/12
2017/18
- plus some League Cups - so there is a younger generation of lads (fans and players alike) who are very accustomed to Chelsea lifting trophies, which makes them desirable. Plus money, plus London.
They have lifted the Champion's League the same number of times as us (twice) since (and including) 04/05 which is a nearly two-decade spell now and won the League 5 times in that spell compared to our one - whilst we were always the "bigger" club and will be for some serious time yet, there's a lot of that period of time from Rafa's tenure through to some of Klopp's time where Chelsea were sadly the more "relevant" club between the two.
