Marcel Desailly believes Mauricio Pochettino cannot guide Chelsea back to top-four despite mass spending spree.
WHAT THEY SAID:
"I want Chelsea to finish top-four because I am a fan, but I don’t think it will happen when you look at their rivals right now," he told"The people who are invested in Chelsea know that this is a medium to long-term process before they can come back to top-four. It is a two to three-year project before getting back into the system. You need to build the players and increase their value, get them up to speed with the project.
"I think people should leave Todd Boehly alone, look at what he’s achieved. Whatever step he is making, he has elements that we don’t have. As fans we want results now. He’s an investor and of course he’s looking for money," he stated. "Some fans say if they don’t win straight away, they want him to go. I’m just happy he has invested. Your team has not performed, and it’s not easy to identify the right person in the dugout. The players knew Lampard would not be there the next season. We are now waiting to see how things will turn out under Boehly," he said.Chelsea fans are eager to see their team bounce back in the 2023-24 season after they finished in the 11th spot in the league standings in the previous campaign.
