EPL: You lack class - Drogba slams new Chelsea owner Boehly
Didier Drogba has claimed his former club Chelsea 'lacks class' under new owner Todd Boehly.
Boehly led a consortium to buy the Premier League side from Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich earlier this year.
The 48-year-old has already splashed out over £250m on new players over the summer and then sacked Thomas Tuchel as manager after just seven games in the new season.
>Boehly has, however, come under fire for suggesting the Premier League should launch a North vs South all-star game and also for sacking several members of Chelsea's backroom team, including their chief medical officer and physio in chief.
During his time at Stamford Bridge, Drogba enjoyed a good relationship with Abramovich and believes that is no longer the case.
"I knew this club with a certain class at the time of Roman Abramovich, but today I find that it is missing.
"It's very difficult for me to see how they got rid of some people, for example the physiotherapists, who had been there for a very long time. They should go back to the principles and the values that they had," said Drogba at Canal+.
