‘Disgusting, Pathetic, a Disgrace’: Gary Neville Slams Chelsea – And Todd Boehly for ‘Playing Football Manager’ | Football/Soccer

Gary Neville has slammed Todd Boehly for creating a ‘mess’ at Chelsea as he urged the American to ‘stop meddling’ with football matters.

Chelsea’s season sank to new depths in Tuesday’s 3-1 loss to Arsenal – their sixth defeat in a row under Frank Lampard – and they are currently 12th in the Premier League table.

Since taking over at Stamford Bridge, Boehly has overseen expenditure on players of more than £600million, which has been spent in just two transfer windows.

Former Manchester United defender Neville described Chelsea’s performance at the Emirates as ‘disgusting’ on the Gary Neville Podcast.

The Sky Sports pundit was also deeply critical of how the Blues’ co-owner Boehly has taken on major football decisions himself.

‘It was the best team on paper I’ve ever seen play as badly as that. It was a shambles in the first half,’ Neville, said. ‘Pathetic.

‘There were World Cup winners, internationals, so expensive – I can’t believe it. Frank Lampard will be thinking the same. They were as bad as I’ve seen.
