Drogba didn't give up on the Chelsea Crash · 12:09pm February 17th
In an interview with Sky Sports, a British media outlet, Drogba spoke about Chelsea's recent slump. "Young players need to adjust. When I joined Chelsea, our team's players were 24-27. They were just at an age when their skills and performances were in full bloom. But now Chelsea players are 22-24 years old. They are very young and learning. We have to remember that they are younger than we thought."
"Give them time and later people will say a new generation has emerged in Chelsea's history. It's only a matter of time," he said. "I hope Chelsea has the same vision now, when Roman Abramovich was the owner."
Drogba from Ivory Coast was a legendary Chelsea striker. He was a Chelsea striker from 2004 to 2012, and from 2014 to 2015.
Drogba was at the center of Chelsea's heyday. He was the top scorer twice in the Premier League and the top help player once, showing off his presence as the world's best striker of the time. He also led Chelsea to the first UEFA Champions League title in the club's history. He is one of the leaders who made Chelsea what it is today.
Recently, however, Chelsea has lost its old reputation for a long time. It is hard to even join the top 10 list, let alone win the Premier League title.
Last season's ranking was 12th. This season's ranking is 11th. It is far from advancing to the European Champions League. Now, its status as a mid-ranking team in the Premier League has declined.
It's not that he didn't invest. Rather, he poured in a lot of money after Todd Boehly came as the owner of the club in May last year. He spent a total of 755.6 million pounds 1.25 trillion won in transfer fees in 2023. He spent 2.03 million pounds 3.3 billion won every day.
Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia for £115 million W193 billion and £58 million W97.3 billion, respectively. Christopher Nkunku signed for £56 million W94 billion and Nicola Jackson for £30 million W50.3 billion.
However, their performance is too low than expected. It should be taken into account that they are young, as they say, but it is inevitable that the results of the investment are regrettable. 스포츠토토
