Todd Boehly has urged Chelsea fans to keep the faith, insisting the ownership ‘are going to figure it out’ following a disastrous campaign that has them 12th in the Premier League.
The Blues co-owner was speaking out on his first 12 months with Chelsea in Beverley Hills in conversation with Milken Institute chairman, Michael Milken.
Chelsea are winless in their last nine games in all competitions, a run that stretches back almost two months, and they will end the season without silverware and without Champions League qualification.
But Boehly, while understanding the ‘demanding’ nature of the fans, believes better times are on the horizon for Chelsea. I think our view though was that this is a long-term project and you know we’re committed to the long-term.
‘We very much believe that we’re going to figure it out.’
He added: ‘We’ve got the best league in the world, we’ve got what I think is the top city in the world and we’ve got an unbelievable location in the top city in the world.’
Boehly was speaking just days after Chelsea were humbled in a 3-1 loss to London rivals Arsenal.
Fans in the ground could be heard chanting for former owner Roman Abramovich, and interim boss Frank Lampard offered a scathing assessment of issues off the pitch afterwards.
‘The gap was the other way around for many years.’
After losing at home to Brighton, a match which saw Boehly heckled by home fans from his executive box, he went into the dressing room at the final whistle.
Boehly told Chelsea’s stars their season was ’embarrassing’ in his address.
But the American billionaire is convinced the slate will be clean heading into next season and he pointed to his success with the Dodgers in making them one of the most attractive teams to watch in Major League Baseball.
For now Chelsea fans are eager to see the back of this season with a trip to Bournemouth this weekend followed by Nottingham Forest coming to Stamford Bridge.
Lampard has yet to win since taking interim charge and will look to arrest that run down on the south coast.
