It's fair to say that not many Chelsea supporters and rival fans have not expected certain elements of the Todd Boehly Chelsea tenure.
From the hap-hazardous spending in his first summer as sporting director to the brutal sacking of Champions League winning boss Thomas Tuchel, Boehly certainly hasn't failed to make his mark on English football, four months into his new regime post-Roman Abramovich. The likes of Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and many others have mocked, intimidated and even questioned the part-LA Dodgers owner and his credentials to have the ability to know how to operate in English football.
However, he has already silenced these doubts with a series of moves made on his behalf, including the ambitious spending in the first transfer window and the smart and intelligent appointment of Graham Potter on a five-year contract to front up this new project. Boehly had to pay £20million plus in compensation to ensure that the Brighton manager was available to lead this new project, coupled with the five staff he dragged with him from the South Coast.
