'Legend' was Jamie Carragher's advice. For the past few years, Chelsea have been the centre of the transfer window. Chelsea continued to invest heavily in every transfer window after owner Todd Boehly became Chelsea's new owner. It even broke the club's all-time record every time.
This summer is no different. Chelsea, who transformed into Enzo Maresca, added nine players in the summer transfer market. This is not the end. Chelsea are planning to make additional signings before the end of the summer transfer market. Chelsea is already close to signing Joao Felix.
The problem is that despite such recruitment, tangible results have not been achieved. He has not even advanced to the European Champions League, let alone won the championship. Nevertheless, owner Boehly continues to recruit players with a long-term contract of seven to eight years.
Carragher strongly criticized Chelsea's transfer market through Sky Sports on the 20th (Korea time). He said "Chelsea should stop recruiting players. Players should also stop signing for Chelsea. "If I were a player, I would have seen Chelsea's project now. "Why would I sign with them?" he said. "The only reason I sign with Chelsea is because the agent can tell the player that I can sign a long-term contract that guarantees a large amount of money.' Carragher said "Players should have confidence in themselves. If you sign a four-year contract and sharpen yourself to play well, you can naturally get more money when you renew your contract. I don't understand why the players sign a seven-year contract."
He also reacted negatively to the size of Chelsea's squad. Carragher said "Of course a good club needs competition. When I played, there were seven to eight players who knew they were built-in main players. Six to seven players competed for three positions, and six to seven players knew they were squad players"How's Chelsea doing now?" Is there a place for many of these players to change their clothes on the training ground? Where do they all gather. Is there a place to train all at once. I am very serious.'
