Okay, it is hard to get past the empty seats. It is hard to get past infantile Infantino dancing around in his mid-life crisis with cringey influencers. The awkward player walkouts and “Superior” players of the match. It is also hard to get past watching a Chelsea game in the US and be told it isn’t a pre-season friendly. You are wading through a forest of caveats before finally reaching some analysis on the actual football.

Tuesday felt like a very Clearlakian day in recent Chelsea history. And by Clearlakian, we are usually referring to something messy, bizarre and annoying to a large swathe of supporters. Chelsea fans witnessed in one-day transfers for Mike Maignan & Jamie Gittens either be called off or halted, to then be told Djordje Petrovic will not be travelling to America. All three of these are different cases with their own backdrops, but they also all reflect a similar theme of incompetence.

I had never been on a proper European away before. I was at home for both Champions League wins with my Dad, lucky to be in the ends for the 07 and 09 FA Cup wins at Wembley, along with lifting of the Premier League title in 05, 15 and 17. The closest I got was a pilsner fueled trip for a pre-season friendly against Gladbach in 2019. Even through lack of sleep and some sore heads for many of us, the trip was worth it and will go down as one of my favorite football experiences.

When you ask people what was the most important win in Chelsea’s modern history, several answers could spring up. For pure joy, winning either of the Champions League crowns in Munich and Porto will hold humungous weight. Others may cite the victories that secured Premier League titles, or the FA Cup in 2007 over Manchester United. However, many cannot look past the 2003 final-day win over Liverpool to secure Champions League football.
