McCoist says:
“I’m watching that game [Chelsea 0 Man Utd 1] and thinking where are they going to go from here. I looked at the bench and I’m shaking my head. They’ve spent the biggest part of £1.7bn in the last four seasons. Do they look as though they got value for that money? Nothing can be further from the truth.”
He then goes on to say recruitment and no stability is the issue.
“A lot of is it down to the recruitment. They’ve got to be very, very careful in the upcoming months.
“You have got to have a blend in your team of youth and experience, and Chelsea do not have that. Look at the great Chelsea teams – Terry, Drogba, Lampard, Cech, the spine. They’ve not got anywhere near that level of player this moment in time, and they’ve spent an absolute fortune. Recruitment is absolutely vital. Not only have they not got the signings right but they’ve not got the balance of recruitment right.
