Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has labelled Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella as flops.

The Blues spent close to £280million following Todd Boehly’s takeover at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea signed Aubameyang, Fofana, Cucurella, Raheem Sterling, Kalidou Koulibaly, Carney Chukwuemeka and Gabriel Slonina in the summer.

Despite spending massively in the summer, Chelsea are 8th in the Premier League.

“I’m very disappointed. I’m very disappointed with where Chelsea are,” Gallas told Genting Casino.

“They are not picking up any results, and I think the club are suffering after a transfer window and period where Tuchel was sacked that lacked any form of strategy.

“They spent a lot of money in the summer. The players that they signed have been performing below the expected level of a Chelsea player.

“Wesley Fofana is injured, but we all knew about his injury record. I don’t know what they are getting from Cucarella, who was signed for £60million! He doesn’t play for Spain. He isn’t in the Chelsea starting eleven. £60million! Wow!

“They signed Aubameyang. He doesn’t look good – he did nothing against Arsenal and was on the bench against Newcastle.

“The club didn’t have any strategy in the transfer window. They rushed it. They tried to buy players for Tuchel, then they sacked him. At the moment, it is a big mess at Chelsea.”
