Blackpool boss Ian Holloway does not agree that Chelsea are, or ever have been, in crisis since Roman Abramovich's takeover.
The Premier League champions have struggled for consistency this term and are battling for a top four slot.
"I think they were in a crisis a few years ago - and then they were sold and I don't think they have ever been in a crisis since," Holloway said.
"They have gone on, spent money wisely and got trophies.
"They have dispatched of a few managers pretty quickly, probably too quickly.
"But I think they are in fine fettle and although they had a sticky spell, I think they always will be now if you look at the ground and Mr Abramovich's money."
in January Abramovich smashed the British transfer record by signing Fernando Torres from Liverpool for �50million, not exactly a sign of a struggling club.
"He's just bought someone for �50million," Holloway said.
"Do I agree with that? Probably no.
"But can I argue with it? No - he has, and he can do that.
"That is this game at the moment, so good luck to them. They are certainly not in crisis."
