Chelsea had no real history either before the Russian and the reason they were 3rd/4th is they spent a shitloads on buying top players.
Yeah agree on chelsea and now you can say they have ambition if you want to, because they are hungry to win even if its short term succuess. Though id rather watch chelsea in the Zola days to now. They played better then and won cups that the club and fans could be pround of.

I agree Jose M gave them more ambition that thay have now.
