What should Chelsea do in the January transfer window ? Chelsea are only three points behind the leaders heading into the new year’s fixtures, but that has not prevented suggestions that the club are on the precipice of disaster with each questionable result.
Simply put, Abramovich is no longer spending money like it’s going out of fashion, as the credit crunch is eroding his vast fortune by the day.

Chelsea being usurped in their pursuit of Robinho by the noveau riche at Eastlands was the nail in the Blues’ sugar-daddy coffin.

The Russian wants to break even and fast on his Chelsea project, and the days of spending over £50 million on Juan Sebastian Veron, Adrian Mutu and Shevchenko are well and truly over.

So where does that leave Chelsea, a club who need to make one significant purchase in the winter?
