It's not too often that a busy transfer window is followed up by an even busier one but Chelsea are trying. After condensing their summer action towards the second half of the window due to ownership changes and interim sporting director hitches they still managed to spend over £250million.
Whether that was wise or not is not yet clear. Early indications suggest not, but with £50million spent on teenagers, Wesley Fofana being just 22 and Raheem Sterling the club's top scorer and assister this season it's perhaps not as simple to write off as first thought.
What is easier to understand is that the job isn't done yet. Todd Boehly is backing Graham Potter and his newly formed recruitment team behind the scenes in order to create a juggernaut for years to come. These things don't just happen overnight but over two windows, around six months and with a lot of funding there could be a big difference to Chelsea.
