Chelsea FC: My Best XI by Ross Balaam

Ross Balaam has picked his best ever Chelsea XI, he has had the pleasure of seeing some incredible talent pull on the Blue shirt over the last 50 years plus ….                                                                                                                                                              
There are some very familiar names such as Petr Cech, John Terry and Frank Lampard but younger fans will need to ask their parents and grandparents who the likes of Ken Shellito and Charlie Cooke are.
