Gary Neville mocks Chelsea owner Todd Boehly and compares him to Ed Woodward over his 'scattergun and unsustainable' approach to the transfer market... as he insists the American needs to stop acting like a 'kid in a sweet shop'

Gary Neville has mocked Chelsea owner Todd Boehly's approach to the transfer market by comparing him to Manchester United's unpopular former vice-chairman Ed Woodward.

The Blues are looking to bring more players through the door before the window shuts on Thursday, having already forked out around £150million this summer.

Performances on the pitch have left a lot to be desired however, with Tuesday's 2-1 defeat to Southampton the third time they have failed to win in five matches this season.
