2:25 Yan Arm Knuckle Shuffle 😂

[@TBlow]

Yan got stuck in, Alfie Gilchrist approves 😂

[@JMEcooper]

I’d say all of the summer signings when Todd boely was acting sporting director were at the request of tuchel. We had no back room staff and if boely likes to get professional people in and let them do their jobs I’d imagine he’s ask tuchel who he wants and gone and tried to do the deals for him as he would have been the only expert there? Which is probably what led to him leaving once they started getting staff in, going in a new direction perhaps tuchel wasn’t happy with and perhaps he didn’t get his first choice targets, who knows but there’s no way tuchel would be standing for egbhali and co around the training ground etc etc sticking their noses in.

[@gamemasteroffun]

I’m team Boehly he genuinely cares about the clubs he owns

[@davidpereira4567]

Im starting to look at Boehly as the good guy now. I kinda understand why it’s been a mix of different signings with crazy risky players. You absolutely cannot accept Clearlake’s approach on the stadium situation and transfer strategies. Kinda gross behavior too letting Boehly catch all the slack while the rest of the investors being the real reason this club has been shambolic.

[@hnaku8748]

Boehly has the sporting background for sure. I don't think Clearlake would have been too popular during bidding period among fans if Boehly didn't lead the bid with his Dodgers reputation. Hence why he was put forward as the face, despite lesser share. Once Clearlake got in, it was up to them what to do with the club. So we are here.

im focusing on the footy season, media can jog on

[@tylermoreland7401]

[@ScipioScandinavia]

[@MaxPower162]

I dont pay attention to the media anymore tbh. Pitch only, anything else wrecks my head

[@SW6Blue67]

Agree totally, back how it used to be. Before the media grabbed hold of the game and bore us to death with the over analysis of both the game and now the business.

[@davereckoning5910]

Yes. I mean, if you want to buy a new car, then you just decide what car you want, buy it and enjoy it, no? Who really cares what company, billionaire or fund "owns the brand"? It's just about the car. "Ownership" and "politics" sh1t goes on at loads of clubs - e.g. utd, 'pool, gunners, the toon, everton, citey even. The media are just focusing on us because they have an agenda.

[@nlsnmrgn_theblukid]

Ugh... this is why an international break is bad at the beginning of the season

[@dt6355]

Clearlake is why we get bantered by everyone and why we lose

[@ShashankD137]

How though ? Boely in charge did much worse getting all those expensive signings we now sold. The youngsters and unproven are doing better than the big names.

[@terry3252]

@@ShashankD137 in fairness I think Boehly was thrown into a tough situation directly after the buyout and backed his manager TT with the players he wanted.

[@ShashankD137]

@@terry3252 yeah I guess TT wanted sterling. Koulabily etc did seem like good buys. Atleast we know boehly has the right intentions. Hoping this doesn't trickle down to our performances on the pitch. We actually have a decent team now

[@dt6355]

@@ShashankD137 exactly boehly actually wants us to win, Clearlake just want to protect their investments and make profit, they don’t care about the players, fans, the history or culture of the club, they just milk us.

[@50centhc]

I have heard rumours that Todd was planning to buy Chelsea from Roman before. When they imposed sanctions and ordered the sale Todd no longer had a partner to put up the money so he joined forces with Clearlake. Rumour has it that this second patrner was Amanda Stavaley who went into partnership with Arabia to buy Newcastle. Todd and Amanda are friends and from what I understand she has left Newcastle. It is possible that she has reunited with Todd and they are planning to buy out Clearlake.

[@nightops9526]

Not going to happen with Stavely. Todd may go with other investors or he sell out.

[@SirEEf13]

If it's true that they know each other then I won't mind her joining forces with Boehly. However, from all I could find her financial power alone wouldn't be enough to buy out Clearlake so we'd still need more money on top of that.

[@davidanderson6839]

Had exactly the same last season, early international break and the press spent 2 weeks droning on about Chelsea PSR problems (which turned out to be rubbish) because they had nothing else to report on and bashing Chels is the hot trend de jour.

[@Wumao50centarmy]

Yans comedy is highly underrated ,man is funny af.

[@Logicsupersedes]

I don't see this is a negative. I think it would absolutely be a positive to have an ownership that are fully focused on going in the same direction

[@nothanks3236]

Even if that direction is Brighton money-ball?

[@beeancahexagonal6213]

I think the owners disagree with each other

[@Logicsupersedes]

@@nothanks3236 see everyone says this but it's just not the truth. It's such an easy way of coming to a conclusion someone else formed so you don't have to think. 1. Chelsea have a multi club model. 2. Chelsea keep all their best players. 3. Chelsea purchase a plethora of talent and then sell on the ones that aren't good enough to make the first team 4. Brighton sell their best players to turn a profit then rinse and repeat. The models are completely different. And anybody with even an ounce of common sense that cares to take a few minutes to think about it objectively would come to that conclusion.

Outstanding work Yan. 30+ mins long video. Engaging and on point as always. 💪🏻👌🏻

[@dt6355]

Boehly for sure

[@SirEEf13]

I hope Boehly survives this trouble and stays with the club. Despite all the shit he got (from media and fans) and everything he did wrong, I still trust him that he has our best interest in mind and that he will bring success eventually.

[@neilcreamer8207]

Can we take a vote? 🤣 I'd prefer Boehly.

[@duncan2858]

Having experience of the private equity world it is obvious that the pension funds and family offices that provide Clearlake with their funding will be asking at every quarterly call 'what is going on at Chelsea? When is the value going to increase?'. Beghali may own Clearlake but the investors will call the shots. On that basis Bohley buying them out may be better but (a) at over £2bn he'll probobly need another financial partner - same problems? and (b) Chelsea are not worth what they paid for us so the buying party will be asking the selling party to take a loss , hard for Clearlakes investors to swallow. Difficult times boys and girls.

[@duncan9058]

Spot on. Inevitable.

[@absolutespoon2074]

I’d say (a) wouldn’t be the same problem. Boehly and Clearlake was likely a marriage of convenience cause the sale of the club came so quickly. In this case Boehly’s probably has the opportunity to pick his partner more carefully

[@filipkuster5013]

20:05 this is the kinda stuff i prefer from you over other chelsea channels. cracking jokes, love the new room too

[@ShinnaDEW]

I have a brilliant idea to solve this mess! Boehly and Eghbali play Rock, Paper, Siscour. The winner gets Chelsea. The looser can buy Everton.🤣

[@tilewajohnson4427]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 laughing my brains out

[@douglasshedd6119]

OR, Todd knows enough of the major money players in the US that he contacts his fellow Billionaires and have them pull their funds from the Clearlake portfolio of Eghbali isn’t removed and they don’t or they don’t sell. I believe Boehly owns an insurance company that uses Clearlake. So does Wyss? I’d have to look into. This is the point: Eghbali and Feliciano don’t even have a definite grip on Clearlake … much less Chelsea

[@_Seru_]

Why do you hate Everton? 😂

[@oscarpapa8936]

[@MotoNomad350]

As “irreconcilable differences” go, those articulated seem pretty minor. Best guess is that it’s personal, not professional differences driving them apart.

[@SirEEf13]

I agree. In terms of business direction those differences seem pretty mild. I think they just had and argument and their egos started to clash and now they can't stand each other. It's in both of their best interest to make Chelsea work so either they get it together or they find a way to do that without having to see or speak to each other. Both should work short term. Especially if Maresca can work a little magic on the pitch. I wouldn't be surprised if that ownership Drama just starts calming down a bit and then lingers around until one party buys out the other next summer.

[@douglasshedd6119]

Clearlake tried to buy several sports franchises. They were turned down. They are based out of LA, and when Boehly and the Guggenheim guys went looking for favorable terms from a 10 year fund investor in time for a bid.

So much makes more sense now, for me two cents i would back the man that has actually purchased and improved a bedrock sports organization. I back the man putting his own cash into the project . I back the guy that so many fans blamed for literally everything when he was NEVER in charge. Even as acting sporting director he was technically working for Clearlake. What a mess. Egbhali out.

Not sure the general consensus but I would rather have Boehly run the club considering his time as owner of a winning professional sports team (LA Dodgers) Clearlake is more financial and Boehly is the one with passion for sport, imo 🙏🏻

[@radical6905]

Its like we are back to when we were sanctioned haha, try to drown it all out and just watch the team i think is the best move

[@hnaku8748]

At least we had a half consistent team then. TT somehow formed a siege mentality with the 7 seater joke and went on a run. Right now I truly can't predict what happens against Bournemouth. Could win, could draw, could lose. None would be a surprise.

[@surreal.lotus11]

Boehly as interim director led Chelsea to one of the worst summer transfer windows and even if you rate cucurella and fofana, we massively overpaid in fee and wages. HOWEVER giving Clearlake full control would be the worst outcome for fans

[@ShinnaDEW]

It was pretty obivous how Boehly and Eghbali think about the Club. When we had our first game last season vs. LFC they set near the FSG Dude, Kinda trying to dunk on him with the Caicedo signing. Both Boehley and Eghbali having big Egos. I doubt Eghali aka Clearlake will sell their Shares. Considering how much was already spend on top off the initial fee. We are looking at 1,5bil ininital for buying 61% of the club. 104mil in loses to stay within FFP/PSR. Buying the two hotels for almost 80mil. So another 200mil plus their share in transfer/agent fees for new signings. I guess that sums up at approx 2,3bil spend so far. So any bid below 2,5bil isnt something fancy by Clarelake at all.

[@terry3252]

I look at this a little differently than most comments and media reports regarding who may be in the better position as far as a potential buyout. Boehly and two others own 39 percent that they invested from personal finance whereas Clearlake have used investors money which leads them in a position to answer to many different shareholders and a Clearlake board. One thing boards and investors don’t like is uncertainty and conflict. It does not help that the team has struggled and spent a large sum of money ( but in fairness they have brought in a lot of money through player sells) . I just don’t think Boehly and the other two that comprise the 39 percent are potentially under as much outside pressure. Also if they have to buy out Boehly etc will this not put FFP at risk

[@SW6Blue67]

I agree that this is all good. Part of the process really, better to have it out and get it sorted quickly rather than it cause issues going forward.

[@nightops9526]

I will say it for one last time, Clearlake didnt ruined Chelsea, Roman Abramovich did! If the fans still cant see the truth, the club will forever be a joke. Unfortunately majority of Chelsea fans are plastic fans, even those matchgoing fans. A true supporter understands the club, a fake fan will attack the club.

The Chelsea situation is great. Maresca learned Pep’s most complex tactical system in the world. You now have Pep’s tactics.
