Chelsea chairman Todd Boehly said the club's plan is "coming together" as uncertainty surrounds the future of manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Speaking at a Sportico conference in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Boehly appeared to be positive about Chelsea's evolution under his stewardship and private equity firm Clearlake Capital since their takeover of the English side in May 2022.
During the interview, Boehly also took a swipe at Chelsea's critics.
“We’ve seen the last two and a half games, at least in the second half at Aston Villa (2-2 draw) and Tottenham (2-0 win) and West Ham (5-0 win) where we played just beautiful football.
“It was so fluid, it was exactly the way we drew it up, when we came out of the back, built up and moved up the pitch, (it was) very organised and the number of shots we had on board. In those two and a half games, you could really start to see what we were working on coming together.
“Even the commentary has changed over the last two and a half games. I’ve never seen anything change so quickly.”
Boehly, who is also the co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, also touched on global sports icon and baseball superstar Shohei Ohtani.
"When you compare (Ohtani) and Babe Ruth, they're literally on top of each other," Boehly said.
"The only difference is that Ohtani has one more pitching win than Babe does at this point in time. So we're talking about a phenomenon. Forget generational, this is every 100 years."
