Jamie Carragher gives Chelsea transfer spend assessment with key Todd Boehly questions asked

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher believes that Todd Boehly deserves praise for his Chelsea transfer methods, if they pay off. The former Liverpool defender also questioned whether the philosophy implemented by the Blues will work as intended, with it still in the early phases.

It comes after an unprecedented spending spree by the club over the past two transfer windows, backed by new co-owners Boehly and Clearlake Capital following their takeover in May. A frantic summer window saw the squad bolstered following some key losses, though January's attention switched towards signings for the future.

There were eight additions by the time the deadline closed, with over half-a-billion-pounds spent so far. "The club has gone through tremendous change with the ownership, there needs to be stability and calm which is hard for me to say when we have made the signings we have made," Graham Potter told Sky Sports after deadline day.
