Gary Lineker has sarcastically responded to news that a furious Todd Boehly visited the Chelsea dressing room in the wake of their dismal 2-1 loss at home to Brighton on Saturday.
Blues co-owner Boehly, who fronted a successful £4.25billion takeover nearly a year ago, spent an hour inside the players' inner sanctum at Stamford Bridge following their third successive defeat under caretaker boss Frank Lampard. The result leaves Chelsea 11th in the Premier League table with seven games to go this season, a campaign which Boehly told the squad was 'embarrassing'.
Former England striker Lineker, who's previously been critical of the American tycoon's business strategy - such as spending more than £400million on transfers within the space of 11 months - took to Twitter on Monday to ruthlessly mock Boehly. Referencing the Guardian's story, Lineker tweeted: "I bet that helped," alongside a woozy emoji.
