Yes, Chelsea has done great during the few recent years. And obviously Chelsea will be outstanding next season too, and more money will be spent to ensure it. Whilst you can only fit 11 into a lineup, by spending loads and loads of (more than others) money on your team, you should be able to cope better with "torrid" injuries and such (as of the 11 names mentioned only John Terry is a more "long time Chelsea", the rest have been bought, a few with more than 20m£). It's not like you could say not claiming a major trophy is acceptable losses to Abrahamovic at this point (see: Claudio Ranieri), given the vast amounts of transfer funds at Mourinho's disposal.
