Why do some Chelsea supporters have mixed feelings about their rendition of the pre-match 'Liquidator' song?

Traditionalist supporters argue that singing about rivals regardless of the opponent detracts from supporting Chelsea directly and cheapens the club's identity. However, other fans defend the practice, asserting it creates necessary pre-match energy and reflects the intensified modern rivalry between the two London sides.
