Obi Mikel then briefly interrupted the Belgian to bring up Tottenham's name to which he mockingly replied, "No, no, Tottenham no. They play good football, yeah but you know Tottenham. As a Chelsea legend, you can't say that man."

Since Todd Boehly took the reins from Roman Abramovich ahead of the 2022/23 season, Chelsea have seen their performance go downhill. Despite spending close to £1 billion (€1.1 billion) to set up the squad, the Blues did not see much success in the past one and a half years. After finishing 12th in the 2022/23 campaign, they currently find themselves 10 in the Premier League, 12 points behind fifth-placed Tottenham.
