In a scathing critique, Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson has strongly criticized Chelsea’s haphazard recruitment policy and questions the club’s ability to resolve its current predicament. Reflecting on Chelsea’s stunning Champions League triumph three years ago, Merson expresses disbelief at the club’s current struggles, particularly their humiliating defeat to Arsenal. He highlights the excessive spending on players like Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo, questioning their quality and the lack of a clear strategy behind their acquisition. Merson suggests that the club’s reliance on agents and YouTube clips has led them astray, creating a farcical situation where players brought in for exorbitant fees fail to deliver.
