This one sentence shows how much the club has changed in a nutshell.
Mourinho: "I said ‘Begovic’ and they said ‘Okay, you can have Begovic’. End of story. Petr is happy. I am happy with what we have." [Mirror]
Indeed and from what I've heard Marina Granovskiaia deserves a lot of credit for the way the club has changed over the past couple of years. She was the one who engineered the return of Mourinho and the signing of Diego Costa, among others. But one of my favourite stories about her is that apparently during contract negotiations with Terry she basically told him to "Either take it or f*****g leave it".
Equally though Abramovich has a deeper knowledge and understanding of football now. Also it appears as though he's learnt from his mistakes, so hopefully we won't see another "I want him" Shevchenko/ Torres signing. But I suppose we'll see how much he's changed or hasn't when/ if Mourinho has a poor season with us. Nevertheless at the moment the future looks bright for Chelsea Football Club.
KTBFFH!
