The Athletic FC Podcast · What If... Abramovich bought Spurs instead of Chelsea? · 6 Sep 2026 podcast

Now these breaches relate, of course, to a period of time when Roman Abramovich was still the owner of Chelsea. voice-verified

Explain this, just sort of summarise this for us if you can. voice-verified

I said we'll get on to some quotes. voice-verified

Um, given Abramovich's wide ranging influence on football and his reluctance as well, I think, to speak to the media, let's come up with favourite quotes about him. voice-verified

Not necessarily quotes that he's given. voice-verified

So you mentioned that David Dean one, which is is brilliant. voice-verified

Any any others? voice-verified

Was it was it any surprise it all ended blowing up with Jose Mourinho then? voice-verified

How would we then, Liam, before we let you go, sum up Roman Abramovich as a character? voice-verified

Because I think we we we were doing a podcast with David Ornset and James Horncastle wrapping up the the transfer window and James made a really good point about Premier League owners in this era at the moment where they're more Razmatazz and they're kind of got this main character energy. voice-verified

And when you think of Roman Abramovich, he's a main character but he never wants voice-verified

To put himself out there really, did he? voice-verified

Well thank you. voice-verified

We're gonna let you go 'cause we're gonna move over to our alternative timeline. voice-verified

So what does life look like without Roman Abramovich? voice-verified

Firstly, dealing with Chelsea, only one league title before he arrived. voice-verified

That was back in nineteen fifty four, fifty five season. voice-verified

So I guess the big question is, Liam told us the kind of situation they were in heading into that summer of two thousand three. voice-verified

Do they just continue to be a cupside? voice-verified

I feel like um Jose Mourinho is gonna crop up a lot in these episodes. voice-verified
