Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder, Jamie O’Hara has named three major problems with the current Chelsea team under their manager, Graham Potter this season.

O’Hara believes problems with the current Chelsea squad is that they ‘look soft, weak and are unable to hurt teams.’

He said this while criticizing Chelsea’s performance against Manchester City on Thursday night, with Potter’s side left languishing in 10th place on the Premier League table after the 1-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea lost at home against Pep Guardiola’s side following winger Riyad Mahrez’s second-half goal.

“I think that they [Chelsea] look soft, they look weak, and I think that they don’t hurt you,” O’Hara told talkSPORT.

“They are pragmatic, and this is not the Chelsea of old that I used to watch when they’d turn up and be horrible and hard to beat, don’t concede and have monsters in the team scoring goals.

“I look at this Chelsea team and think that I fancy playing against them.

“It’s one of the most successful football teams in the last 20 years, and they are sat 10th in the table,” he added.

Chelsea legend, Petr Cech, has advised his old club on how to win the UEFA Champions League or the English Premier League.

Chelsea are already out of the Premier League title race this season, and they are at risk of missing out on UEFA Champions League qualification for next season because they are currently not in the ninth position on the Premier League table.

Speaking to The Athletic about Chelsea, Cech said that the Blues need to change their philosophy of signing only young players if they want to win the Premier League or Champions League.

According to the former goalkeeper, the Premier League west London club needs to add experienced players to mentor the young players in the squad.

“You have to look at what you want to achieve. You can have young, talented players, and you can win, but it’s very rare that you manage to do that,” he said.

“If you want to win every season and compete every season, that does not go together.

“You have to change your philosophy. Certain things don’t go together because, in order to win a Champions League or a Premier League… these are really tough competitions, and you have to be consistent.

“You need to have a strong core of the team. And then you can bring young, talented players who will grow faster and then will be held by the experienced players to help navigate them through difficult times when they come.”

Currently, Chelsea have just one player, Tosin Adarabioyo, who is over 28 this season, and the defender has not been playing regularly.
