Chelsea supremo Kenyon claims: Now we can prove money doesn't buy titles

'Delighted': Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon Belt-tightening: Roman Abramovich's club have been instituting cost-cutting measures 'We are delighted not to be the richest club any more and other clubs may spend more without having as much success on the pitch,' said Kenyon. 'This would dispel the idea that we have just bought our titles.' 'We have taken sound financial decisions recently regarding trimming costs. We are not generally in the market for players at present as the best players are not usually available mid-season and it takes new players time to adapt. 'He (Scolari) has said consistently that he doesn't want random replacements if we can't get the players he identified. 'We have a long-term plan with him and will build on what we have achieved so far. We are in great shape and the best thing we can do is win trophies and be self-sufficient.' And despite the current financial climate and Chelsea's huge wage bill, Kenyon maintained that the club's operating profit will break even next season.   More.
