Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has slammed Todd Boehly's running of Chelsea.

O'Hara was reacting after Chelsea's elimination from the Champions League by Real Madrid.

O'Hara told Grosvenor Sport: Everything Todd Boehly has done so far has been a mistake.

"The recruitment has been shocking. He brought in Graham Potter and all his backroom staff which turned out to be a nightmare, and now they haven't won a game yet under Lampard so you'd have to say that's probably another mistake appointing him.

In my opinion, Todd Boehly's a bit of an idiot, and he's thrown Frank a bone to 'come and bring Chelsea back', but Frank's too low on confidence he has lost all eight of his games as a manager in 2023.

"It's Micky Mouse stuff what has happened at that football club recently. They've got a billionaire owner in Boehly, but you could have all the money in the world and not have a clue how to run a football club.

"It's been a joke Boehly has actually buried the mentality of that football team, and the DNA of Chelsea is completely lost at the moment. They need to find it again, and quickly.

I don't know where his [Lampard's] career goes from here. I think he's a bit lost for ideas. He needs to go away and work on his managerial skills and game.

"I look at Chelsea and they just look totally lost under him. The players don't know what they're doing.

There's no point in doing another managerial change now, unless that manager is guaranteed to be there at the start of next season.

"I don't know who the manager is that they're trying to get, but he'd want to bring in his own people and own staff and have a fresh start. They wouldn't want to come into this it's a poisoned chalice right now."
