Former Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has once again criticised the club's co-owner Todd Boehly.

Mikel, who spent his career at Chelsea under owner Roman Abramovich, is unhappy with how far the club has slipped in the Premier League.

The Blues have been firmly midtable since Boehly and Clearlake Capital bought the club.

“We've given them time now. it's been half a year. Now it's time to win. In Chelsea there's no time. You have to win - that's our motto," Mikel told Sky Sports at The Best FIFA Football Awards in London regarding the future of manager Mauricio Pochettino.

“If you don't win, Roman gets you out of the door and gets someone else. So I think that should be the new owner's way of thinking - you have to win. If you don't win, what's the point of being at Chelsea?

“The excuse of trying to review is done. So now we have to win games, play better, improve and try to compete.

“This year, knock it on the head now. Next year we need to be up there."
