Daily Star Sport takes a look at the seven worst signings during his reign.The Spaniard was undoubtedly one of the best strikers in world football when Chelsea spent £50 million to acquire his services from Liverpool in January 2011.However, the numerous injuries he suffered during his time at Anfield meant he failed to rediscover his prolific form in a blue shirt.In total he scored 45 goals in 172 appearances and won the Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup with the club.However, he ultimately became a peripheral figure at Stamford Bridge and simply didn’t justify his hefty transfer fee.Morata joined Chelsea from Real Madrid for a then club record £60 million in the summer of 2017.Much expectation was placed on the shoulders of the Spain striker who was signed during Antonio Conte’s spell in charge of the club.However, he only scored 24 goals in 72 appearances for the Blues.Morata left Chelsea just two seasons later and joined Atletico Madrid.The Ukrainian goal scoring legend arrived at Stamford Bridge from AC Milan in a £30 million deal in 2006.Shevchenko was expected to take English football by storm given his impressive record in Serie A and the Champions League.But his reputation as a world class striker was questioned after he could only muster nine goals in 48 league appearances.He became a squad player under then manager Jose Mourinho and re-joined AC Milan on loan just two seasons later.The former Leicester midfielder was an integral part of the Foxes side that won the Premier League in 2016.Drinkwater’s impressive form earned him a move to Chelsea a year later in a £35 million deal.However, the former England midfielder failed to establish himself in the Blues’ midfield and has only made 23 appearances

Tottenham, which could end up costing them a top four place.Spurs have suffered a number of setbacks to their ambitions of qualifying for next season’s Champions League and were also dumped out of the FA Cup by Middlesbrough on Tuesday.Their Italian boss has been growing increasingly frustrated in recent weeks, especially following a January transfer window that failed to substantially increase the quality of his squad.The only two signings that Spurs made were in midfield and attack, with their defence still far from the quality of their rivals for a top four place.Conte’s lack of options has led to Eric Dier emerging as one of his first-choice options at centre-back, with the Englishman missing just four Premier League games this season.But former Manchester City star Trevor Sinclair does not believe that Dier suits the role in the back three, highlighting him as a key weakness in Conte’s side.“I look at the quality of the players, I know Dier’s an international player and he’s done good things for England, but he’s not a centre-half and he’s being asked to play in that position,” Sinclair told talkSPORT.“What we’re talking about is quality, elite, experienced centre-halves. They do things second nature, they fight for space before the ball’s even gone there.Is Eric Dier is good enough to be one of Tottenham's first-choice centre-backs? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section...“There’s certain attributes that centre-halves just have naturally and he’s trying to adapt himself into that.

Harry Kane on social media after the Tottenham Hotspur man took one of the worst set-pieces of his life against Middlesbrough in the FA Cup on Tuesday.Antonio Conte's side were dumped out of the competition in extra-time thanks to a late strike from Josh Coburn, but nothing encapsulated their evening like Kane's second-half free-kick.Over the past couple of seasons the England captain has transformed himself into a more dynamic, all-round player who can do a bit of pretty much everything.He's turned into Tottenham's best creator and has developed a passing range that few other strikers around the world can match.But he clearly needs to work on his free-kicks a bit more and Spurs fans will be hiding behind the sofa the next time he decides to one after witnessing his laughable effort at the Riverside Stadium.The away fans held their breath as Kane stepped up from 25-yards out, but the England man slipped over and saw his lifeless effort puff itself into the Middlesbrough wall."That's the worst Kane free kick yet, and that's saying something," one Tottenham fan tweeted.Where will Harry Kane be playing football next season? Let us know in the comments section below..."I love him but it should be illegal for Harry Kane to ever take a free kick outside of the training ground," said another."You're so good at everything at Harry, just not free-kicks.
