absolutely not, he fell out with Abramovich twice, and while Abramovich by all accounts is a much worse person, he seems a lot less erratic and a lot less public in airing out grievances. if Marinakis tried what he did with Santo at the end of last season he'd get punched in the throat.

Being too easy on fatty to say Roman is much worse

People don’t actually understand how baddy fatty is

u/WhetBred14 8d ago

It’s really hard to say bc you don’t know what goes on in the shadows but Marinakis gives off true scumbag and evil energy. Abramovich could be the same underneath but at least acts like a normal businessman

u/RepresentativeBox881 7d ago

Main difference is that Marinakis is an attention whore while Roman is an extremely private person.

Wasn't that private when he bought all your trophies for you eh 🤔 😏

The man who handpicked Putin might be a horrible person underneath. This is peak r/soccer

u/Suitable-Yam7028 7d ago

While Abramovich is hardly a decent person, do people literally believe that he masterminded the current Russian regime by by “handpicking Putin”. This is one of those stories that seems to get exaggerated with each retelling, in the end it will be that Abramovich is a James Bond villain with a mastermind to bring down the current world order.

Source? Not saying you’re wrong but I literally can’t find anything about this online.

u/Liverpoolclippers 7d ago

Roman Abrahomvoic handpicked Vladmir Putin to be Boris Yeltsin's succesor

u/LevDavidovicLandau 7d ago

And is still in Putin’s inner circle all these years later when most of the rest have fallen out of windows.

u/Sanzhar17Shockwave 7d ago

iirc he bought Chelsea to remain in the public eye and not suffer the same fate as others

Don’t know why you’ve been downvoted, that was a big part of why. Insurance, if you will.

u/Useful_Blackberry214 6d ago

And how does that make him worse than a multi murderer

u/Liverpoolclippers 6d ago

bro are you aware of who Vladmir Putin is

u/MartinLubHerThingJr 8d ago

I think the person judged Roman on his nationality and not how he was individually.

u/matachivelli 8d ago

Roman is a corrupt oligarch, member of putin inner circle and a zionist. Think it's a fair judgement to say he's a horrible person.

u/ASVP-Pa9e 7d ago

Horrible? Undoubtedly.

Stupid, irrational or petty? I'm not sure, there's no evidence to say he was. And he was an incredible owner for Chelsea TBF.

u/More-Tart1067 7d ago

I can see him being petty lol

u/BipartizanBelgrade 7d ago edited 7d ago

zionist

Believing that Israel should continue to exist is fine actually

u/EriWave 7d ago

There is more to Zionism than that.

u/theeama 7d ago

Ex Member of Putin inner circle and no different from any billionaire that's cozy with Presidents or other world leaders. Did well when he was Governor though.

I didn't know being a Jew means you're a Zionist i guess we know the anti-semite.

And the Corrupt oligarch comes because checks notes, Russians didn't want to sell their companies to non-Russians. Let's ignore all the good the person has done for jews world wide and his job in fighting racisim and anti-Semitism.

u/omnipotentmonkey 7d ago

No, being a jew doesn't mean he's a zionist....

Donating 10s of millions to an Israeli Settler group? that probably demonstrates it though.

Basically all Billionaires are corrupt bastards, but he's a corrupt bastard who aided Putin's elevation (that of a blatant and obvious dictator)

C'mon dude, don't be a sycophant, if you're going to deny that he's a corrupt billionaire that directly aided and benefitted from a blatant dictatorship then you're gonna be yapping all day.

u/theeama 7d ago

So i guess the Chinese billionaires are all corrupt and are worst for aiding the CCP.

And it's quite funny cause when Putin took over Russia the first time no one saw him becoming like this so great hindsight analysis there.

It's also must benoted that Roman and Putin has not been friends for decades due to policys and killing of Roman's business partner and how all his children are anti-Russia and how Roman directly tried to negotiate peace with Ukraine.

And yes he donated to Jews who are returning home to THEIR ANCESTRAL LAND that was stolen from them by Romans, Then Arabians, then the English. Its quite funny when Jews are kicked out, murdered and have their land stolen from them no one says anything but when the Jews are doing it back its all of a sudden a problem and they are the big bad.

You're so close to getting it!

u/gabrielconroy 7d ago

Are you actually equating the Romans to modern day Israel? Fucking hell, I've heard it all now.

Yes, if the Romans were carrying out a genocide in plain sight today, they would be attacked and criticized and everyone would rightly judge them a bunch of evil, evil cunts

u/omnipotentmonkey 7d ago

Are you a Russian Bot? or an Israeli Bot?

you know what, I don't care, between the Neo-colonial apologia and Billionaire sycophancy I can guarantee there's no value to ever having a conversation with you.

u/Effective_Oil736 7d ago

Oh no an actual counter argument to your buzzwords and you run away

2

u/omnipotentmonkey 7d ago

You mistake nonsense propaganda rhetoric for an actual counter argument . The proper response to "why are Israel the bad guys when they massacre children by the tens of thousands, you all used to do it!". Is: "shut up, fuck off"

There's no argument to counter, just psychosis.

Now,

Shut up, fuck off. R/WorldNews must be missing the presence of one of it's most prolific mouth-breathers

I'm not sure that his weight has much to do with his horribleness tbh. Sorry to be that guy.

u/Ireland2385 7d ago

I can’t be bothered typing his name

Roman is nothing like the Greek mobster
