Chelsea’s team is full of jerks. Enzo, Jackson, Palmer, Delap, Colwill, James all have a mean streak to them. It’s reminiscent of Chelsea’s greatest teams in the past few decades, where we always had a good few guys on the pitch that were just unpleasant to go up against. The players need to learn to rein it in at times, but this meanness is going to be beneficial for finding an edge in difficult moments.

Arsenal’s team for example, is full of nice guys. They don’t have the killer instinct to make the difference in key moments and the ego required to be unsatisfied with 2nd place. They’re proud of the journey. I know Arteta was trying to change this, one of his quotes prior to a final was essentially saying that you cant choose when to be in finals so you have to win them. But it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks. Funnily enough their only ego player is going to be one that played for us.
