Chelsea Will Soon Be Forgotten, There Are Players I Am ashamed Of – Guus Hiddink

By Amaechi Agbo

Former Chelsea and Russia national team Coach, Guus Hiddink, has disclosed that Chelsea could be forgotten even as he questioned the acquisition of some players in the club by the current management
Hiddink, who twice managed Chelsea on interim bases in 2009 and 2016 wondered what had gone wrong with the club after the former owner, Roman Abramovich left.
“I feel very strongly for the former teams, but now I really feel for Chelsea without Mr Abramovich. It’s incredible what happened to the club. It’s unacceptable for a team made by Roman Abramovich to be treated this way.
“I don’t know who the key Chelsea players are today. I just don’t see such players on the team. Without strong football players, the fundamentals are very difficult. It is impossible to analyze Chelsea today. There are a lot of footballers there for whom I am ashamed,” Hiddink said
He expressed concern that despite spending big to bring in new players, Chelsea’s problems are plethora adding that such situations would lead to Chelsea becoming uninteresting and be forgotten
“They spent a lot of money, a lot of money, and now they have problems on the field, problems off the field, problems everywhere. What it is? This is not good, this cannot continue. Ultimately, this will lead to Chelsea becoming uninteresting; Chelsea will soon be forgotten, and this is unacceptable! This needs to be stopped”
Chelsea currently occupy 9th position on the EPL table. Their season-long uninspiring performance got worse recently after they crashed out of the 2024 FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City. This was followed by a 5-0 humiliating defeat at Arsenal in the Premier League, midweek.
