Gary Neville gives Todd Boehly advice for next year after brutal swipe at Chelsea "mess"

Gary Neville has urged Todd Boehly to stop meddling with football matters at Chelsea and believes that this season's "mess" is "purely down to him."

Boehly, who was part of a consortium which paid £4.25billion to buy the club last May, has been responsible for sacking two managers and spending around £600million on transfers during his eventful first year at Stamford Bridge. Yet the underperforming Blues still lay in the bottom half of the Premier League table with just five games to go, as fans wait for Mauricio Pochettino to become the third permanent boss of Boehly and co's "chaotic" reign.

Neville infamously claimed earlier in the campaign that the American tycoon was "playing Football Manager " and has been a constant critic throughout his regime's tenure. Now, in the wake of Tuesday's shambolic 3-1 defeat away to London rivals Arsenal, the Manchester United legend has once again gone in on Boehly - but this time offered a solution.
