Todd Boehly’s reaction to Chelsea’s disappointing 2-2 draw against Everton last night was brutally succinct in three words – “a s*** f****** game”.
While an opinion shared by many Blues fans, it has now been made very clear that this is not the kind of performance expected from a club with such ambition.
Despite recent success under Graham Potter, the team are still struggling to gel adequately due to the influx of new players and Thiago Silva’s absence being keenly felt.
Ellis Simms’ equalizer in second half stoppage time left away supporters jubilant as they salvaged a point, and Chelsea faced reality in what was yet another flaky performance.
Whether or not they can close the 11-point gap to Spurs remains to be seen, but Todd Boehly and Stamford Bridge faithful alike know there’s plenty of work ahead if they have top four ambitions.
