Chelsea are struggling without the 'core' group they had in their glory days, claims former Blues and England defender, who says it will 'take time' for the squad to gel together

A former Chelsea favourite has offered up transfer advice to his former club by suggesting an easier route for future recruitment plans.

Since taking ownership of the club last summer Todd Boehly has spent over £1bn on new players in just three transfer windows, leaving the Blues will a squad full to the brim of new arrivals.

However, one former Chelsea star doesn't agree with the way Boehly has gone about his transfer business and believes there is a better way to achieve success.

Former defender Gary Cahill is of the opinion that is less is more for the club, and that they'd find more reward in adding one or two players at a time, rather than investing in a wrath new names in every window.
