Chelsea are struggling a lot this season. Sometimes they do well, and other times they don’t. Even though getting young players can be good for later, at the moment, it doesn’t seem like a smart move. Chelsea’s idea is to get young players, and some people think it’s because they want to sell them to make money. Chelsea legend William Gallas doesn’t like this plan and has criticized it.
William Gallas criticizes Chelsea
Chelsea’s player recruitment under Todd Boehly hasn’t been good, and now the team is in a really bad situation. Mauricio Pochettino is trying hard to make things better, but his team’s attacks aren’t working well. In the Premier League this season, Chelsea have missed more important scoring opportunities than any other team. If they can bring in a goal-scoring striker in the January transfer window, it might help turn things around in the second half of the season. However, it’s crucial for Chelsea to make the right choices in player recruitment. If they make mistakes, they could end up finishing in the lower half of the Premier League table, and Pochettino might lose his job at Stamford Bridge.
Former Chelsea player William Gallas has criticized Chelsea’s transfer policy under Todd Boehly.
“I think Chelsea’s board have a different strategy and that is to try and buy young players and then sell them to make money,” Gallas said.
“They are not trying to win the Premier League straight away, it’s about business and investment and that’s why Chelsea bought so many young players. You have to wait and be patient, but the fans will not be patient. With the squad they have at the moment, they will be ready next year?” he added.

Chelsea have been having a tough time this season. They’re in 9th place in the Premier League, with nine wins, four draws, and eight losses. To avoid playing poorly in the league again, Chelsea needs to change how they buy players. They should get experienced players to help improve the team.
