Todd Boehly can shut Graeme Souness up with ideal transfer after Badiashile and Fernandez deals

Chelsea's summer transfer business was branded as 'madness' by Sky Sports' Graeme Souness, with the Blues' failure to replace Timo Werner and Romelu Lukaku exposed by their lack of goals this season.

Graham Potter's side were held to a disappointing draw by Nottingham Forest on New Year's Day, with the Blues taking an early lead through Raheeem Sterling before Serge Aurier equalised for the hosts. Sterling was signed in the summer to bolster the attack, but has only scored four goals in the Premier League since joining.

Despite this, he is Chelsea's top scorer in all competitions, with his six goals leading the way ahead of Kai Havertz, who has five goals. Fellow summer signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored just three goals in all competitions this season and Sky Sports' Souness slammed Todd Boehly's summer spending after the match at the City Ground.
