Paul Merson has slammed Chelsea's recruitment policy under Todd Boehly, labelling them a 'YouTube team', built by looking at 'five-minute clips' and signing players.
"To spend a billion pounds on those players… Wow. I mean, I don't know who would sign half of them," Merson wrote in his Sky Sports column.
"Enzo Fernandez for £100m and £115m on Moises Caicedo. Who's gone out with the vision that these are going to be the best two midfield players in world football? Because they should be for nearly a quarter of a billion pounds. They should run the show every game.
"It almost seems like agents are sending videos of a player, five-minute clips, and Chelsea have gone, 'I'll take him. Oh my God, how good is he? Look at his clips. Look at him'.
"They've just got a YouTube team together. Like they've looked at clips and put it together and gone, 'this team can play. Look at these.' But it's a million miles off."
