About this episode
It's time for The Truth! Sam Tighe and Dougie Critchley sit down to discuss the hottest topic in the world of football right now - whether Chelsea's transfer strategy is a 4D Chess plan that will leave others in the dust, or a chaotic playground of excess that's destined to struggle for some time. Chelsea's additions of João Felix, Jadon Sancho, Pedro Neto, Tosin Adarabioyo, Marc Guiu, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Filip Jorgensen, amid others - caused some consternation on social media; whilst their outgoings of Conor Gallagher, Ian Maatsen, Thiago Silva and Lewis Hall depleted the squad further of homegrown talent and valuable experience. It led to a bit of an online firestorm regarding what Chelsea were up to under Todd Boehly and Clearlake, and whether the soul of the club was being traded in to allow for a blitzkrieg transfer policy to remain in operation. Is the whole thing a disaster, or could it be that Chelsea are just a few steps ahead of the rest? The Truth is somewhere in the middle...
