EPL: Chelsea need four top players to catch Man City – Carragher

<p>Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher, has claimed Chelsea are still four top players away from being able to compete for the Premier League.</p>, <p>The Blues have already spent £1bn on new players in the last three transfer windows.</p>, <p>Since the Todd Boehly-Clearlake takeover, 33 new signings have been made since May 2022.</p>, <p>But Chelsea finished 12th in the Premier League last season after Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, Bruno Saltor and Frank Lampard all had spells as head coach.</p>, <p>They are currently stuck in the bottom half following Mauricio Pochettino’s appointment in the summer.</p>, <p>Carragher told Monday Night Football: “If you’re telling me that is Chelsea’s best team after they’ve spent £1bn… that team would still need at least four top players if they had any chance of catching Manchester City.</p>, <p>“The goalkeeper is not good enough, the centre-forward is not good enough, they need a centre-back and probably another midfield player.</p>, <p>“To think Chelsea have spent over £1bn and they still feel like they’re half a team away from competing for the Premier League title is flabbergasting.”</p>
