"The American guy Boehly looks like he wants to play Football Manager. There's something in him, they're a bit panicky. That pressure is on him."
Above are the words from Gary Neville before the start of the season. The former Manchester United defender has been very critical of Chelsea's co-owner Todd Boehly since his appointment in May.
The comment seemed unfair at the time and it still does now. Yes, Chelsea's transfer window was messy – to say the least – but this is someone who took on about 10 jobs at once in his first summer in football. It was never going to be pretty.
