Former Premier League stars, Micah Richards and Chris Sutton have criticized Chelsea’s decision to sign Joao Felix on loan from Atletico Madrid.But Richards believes the 23-year-old Portugal international would not solve Chelsea’s problems this season, while Sutton believes the Blues are missing the likes of three players, Reece James, Ben Chilwell, N’Golo Kante.
“It is not going to solve their problems. It is a really good signing but I think they need to back it up with an actual number nine,” Richards told BBC Radio 5 Live’s Monday Night Club. “They need bodies through that door sooner rather than later because this isn’t the Chelsea we are used to seeing.”
On his part, Sutton said, “This season, they’ve basically been making it up as they go along – and this is the issue with the Joao Felix signing now. “They miss Reece James, Ben Chilwell, N’Golo Kante – I get that – but the bottom line is there are still enough good players within the Chelsea ranks for them to be performing better than they are.”
