    Rumours about that Chelsea are about to be sold to British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe for around £2 billion.

    What do Chelsea fans think about this if true, gutted to lose Roman? Is this the start of a decline back to where they were pre Russian money?

    Isn't Ratcliffe similarly wealthy, when compared to their current, exiled owner?
    I must admit I'm not familiar with the ****, but he doesn't appear to be short of a few quid.

    Why's everyone slagging off Drinkwater, including a ****ing Leicester fan?
    His move to Chelsea hasn't worked out, by any means, but he's not suddenly ****, is he?
    The latest rumour is that Leicester want him back. Oops!

    FYI, not that the story is true.....
    But Jim Ratcliffes personal net worth is nearly twice that of Romans.

    Romans net worth as of today - £11bn
    Jim Ratcliffes £21.5bn

    He's rumoured to be publicity shy, though. Probably not a great idea to buy Chelsea, if that's the case.
    Does seem to live locally, which would be odd for one of your fans, too.

    He was being hailed as England's saviour a while ago. I see your point, actually! <laugh>

    You mean unlike the attention seeking Abramovich, who I think has given one interview, the entire time he has owned Chelsea :)
    Roman is notoriously cagey himself.

    lol I never rated Drinkwater all that much to be honest.
    He isn't **** by any means, he can do a decent job, but he is very mediocre.
