Opinion: Brian Reade on Wayne Bridge's Chelsea deal

Wayne Bridge epitomises the difference between today's top players and the rest of us.

The full-back has just signed a new contract which effectively means he'll spend the next four years sitting down to watch Chelsea play, hoping something nasty happens to Ashley Cole .

Which is what every fan outside of Stamford Bridge will be doing. But we won't be getting paid £16.6million for the pleasure.

Different class, as they say.
