WHAT THEY SAID: "I am comfortable with that," he said. "There was maybe some criticism of our old owner and not coming to the game, which wasn't always true, but when the owners are around and want to have input. I was always happy as a player when I could speak to the owner."

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Chelsea's new owners have invested heavily since taking over but have seen their team endure a miserable season. The Blues are already searching for their third manager of the season and are currently down in 11th place in the table, closer in points to the relegation zone than the top four.
