Jurgen Klopp has admitted he is 'happy' to see Chelsea's high spending under Todd Boehly has not worked out so far.
Chelsea have endured a terrible season in the Premier League despite spending £600 million across two transfer windows and bringing in 17 new players to the squad.
Boehly has also parted ways with two managers in his year in charge after sacking Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter before appointing Frank Lampard on an interim basis.

Before Liverpool's win over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday evening, Klopp admitted he felt sorry for Chelsea but was also pleased to see the high spending not work out.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the Reds boss said: “I feel a little bit for Chelsea to be honest, because it’s not going well, I think they’re a top, top team, but on the other side it's good to see that you cannot just bring top players together and think it works out. You have to build a team and that’s what the guys there underestimated and gave their coaches a nearly impossible job to do.
"You cannot have two dressing rooms, you cannot train on two pitches, you have to create relationships, you have to create team spirit, and that’s the only reason why I’m a little bit happy about it. Chelsea will be fine in the end and they will be incredibly strong next year, but I’m using them just as an example."
Klopp then spoke about Liverpool spending in the summer after a lacklustre campaign themselves.
“At the highest level, no, we cannot do it like that [like Chelsea]. And that’s what we will not do. You have to bring in the right players and build a new team. This team wrote a sensational story and now we start a new one, that’s it," he added.
