LEBOEUF - Do you agree with his take on Chelsea?

Frank Leboeuf has been quoted here today stating that he doesn't believe that Chelsea will win anything this season and need a shake up at the end of the season. He said:

“I don't agree that this is the turning point for their season. It is hard for me to criticise my former club but I said at the beginning of the season that I didn't think they would be winning the championship.

I love them but I really feel they are at the end of the cycle. When I saw them flying at the top, I wondered if I knew anything about football any more but now we are seeing the truth and reality of that club and those players.

They need to do something at the end of the season where they will need to sell and buy players. Of course, they didn't have a bad game against Spurs but one or two years ago that match would have been won by Chelsea.

I don't know why Didier Drogba didn't play from the beginning but I was pleased to see Frank Lampard coming back. But I really feel Chelsea is not Chelsea any more. I am sad about that. We need a new Chelsea for next season.

I hope I will be wrong. The vertical column of John Terry, Michael Essien, Lampard and Drogba are back and that's important but it will be a tough game against United.

They have to win and then at least draw against Arsenal if they want to keep surviving in the competition. The positive thing I can say about Chelsea is that they haven't had any luck.”

Make of his comments what you will. The only thing I have to say is that it was obvious about Sunday. Drogba didn't start to give him the kick up the arse he needed as he hasn't been playing well and Carlo said as much.

It will be nice to see the current Chelsea rub his nose in it at the end of the season.

Do you however, think he has a point. Are we at the end of the current Chelsea cycle?
