MORE MONEY... MAUR PROBLEMS

Hasselbaink insists big price tags don't guarantee success

- MATTHEW DUNN

CHELSEA legend Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has warned Mauricio Pochettino some of his new recruits may never live up to their huge price tags.

Another £350m has been spent on the already bloated squad at Stamford Bridge as the new owners continue their spending spree under Pochettino, already their fifth man in the managerial hot seat.

Huge fees have been laid out for Moises Caicedo (inset, top), Nicolas Jackson (inset, bottom), Romeo Lavia, Christopher Nkunku and Axel Disasi but none of those are an out-and-out striker – possibly the hardest position of all to come in and meet expectations.

Nevertheless, Hasselbaink did just that when he joined Chelsea in 2000 for £15m.
