I think Chelsea is such a risky move for any young player. They are constantly buying, constantly changing personnel, shipping players on loan and back - how do you know where you stand? Players are treated like commodities more than anywhere else, they are people second at that club. Obviously they are grossly overpaying contacts in a lot of cases, so there is the attraction, but from a footballing point of view it is a risk at best and disaster at worst. Obviously Delap still has time, but the list of players going there and coming out worse off is lengthening all the time.
There is pretty much no sense of identity at that club anymore. For me they epitomise everything wrong with modern football and IMO are the first club in England that has completely lost its soul to greed. Stamford Bridge is such a nothing stadium too, every time I've been there I've never felt a sense of community or like it really feels like anyone's home, I've never really felt that at any other stadium (except the monstrosity West Ham play in of course).
