Even Spurs to a degree have shown that as well, although they've faltered in some areas. They're not some Oligarch or Royal's toy.

Honestly, the main issue with Spurs (aside from the year they spent $0), has been horrible recruiting. They spent money on players like Ndombele and Lo Celso and they were both busts. There are a lot of players who've come in and been completely underwhelming. I don't know if that's all Daniel Levy or whether that's guys like Steve Hitchen, but it's pretty pathetic.
Anyway, it would be great to see Chelsea have an actual budget and not just buy whoever they want with dozens of loans out as well. It would also be great if the new owners didn't want to pay players to play elsewhere and they sold guys like Broja, Gallagher and the like. Probably wishful thinking, but it would be good to see.
