Debate Ersk? More like a bollocking for me! My Mrs said to me this morning you seem distant, what you thinking about?.... I said I'm thinking of Chelsea's most exciting front three, apparantely she'd been talking to me for 10 minutes about jobs around the house!! I didn't hear a thing, anyway she's cleared off shopping now!! another underated striker Kevin Wilson!!

Ha Ha you not listening to your Mrs.

Sorry!

I still blame my poor 4th Year exam results in Secondary School, back in 1982/83 on our fight against relegation to Division 3!!

Greaves

Osgood

Drogba

Snap mate, I'm same as you, the sh*t we got at school as well from mates taking piss, I was in third year then, but hey worth it, following season Dixon, Nevin, speedie, ' Chelsea are back'

It used to be a front five when I started going! I'm going to say Tambling, Drogba and Greaves, with Lampard lurking just behind. No doubt someone else will dig some name out and I'll be cursing why I didn't put him in.

Agreed mate. Used to listen to Sport on 2 and watch the Grandstand Vidiprinter back then hoping we' won or got a draw back then.

The complete turn around in 1983/84 was amazing.

Chelsea were back. Memories.

I ended up going to college and getting reasonable Grades Ordinary and Higher-level Passes.

It helped we had got promotion and then were doing well in Division 1!

Charlie Cooke beside Lampard in midfield?

With N'Golo Kante scurrying around behind. What an engine that lad has got! I watched Makalele and Kante but Kante gets the nod from me.

Picking only players I've actually seen play

Zola,
Drogba and
Hazard

Zola, Hazard, Eidur.

Robben . Brilliant player.

Now onto my third all time forward list.

So many to choose from.

Hard choices...

My second front three.

Drogba, Crespo and Vialli.

Three brilliant players.

Not Bobby Fleck, I considered him but he still holds cult hero status and still has his song sang to this very day.

Here we go:

Number 1 is Bobby Fleck

Number 2 is Bobby Fleck

Number 3 is Bobby Fleck

Number 4 is Bobby Fleck

Regarding Robert Fleck. In August 1986 Graeme Souness was about to sell him from Rangers to Dundee, but Dundee could not afford the £25,000 fee.

Colin West got injured. Souness played Fleck who scored a hat trick and was never out the Rangers team the rest of 1986/87. A year later Fleck moved to Norwich City in Oct 87 for £500,000.

With all three of them arcing their runs, they'd all be bumping into one another!

Hazard DD Zola/Robben

Even though robben was not world class for us.

True, he was a frustrating player. Mahrez reminds me of him a bit, especially his time with us. Maybe Mahrez will benefit from going to Europe as Robben did. At the time, I thought Damien Duff brought far more to the team.

Thought Damien Duff was very influential in that Chelsea side.

What I liked about Damien was, not only his skill and pace, but that he walked off the pitch at the end of the game knowing he'd given his all. Now, we need someone like him now, don't you think? 

It's funny I never really rated Duff, he seemed to threaten a lot yet not deliver, of course he was a different proposition wearing a green shirt.

Mick Hartford, Tony Cascarino, and either Bill Garner or Droba.

More like a panzer division than a front three

#1 Jimmy Greaves

#2 Zola

#3 Kerry Dixon

Mark Falco, Alan Mayes and Robert Fleck.

 

Unless we're talking seriously, then it's Hazard, Drogba, Franco.

Apologies to the King, wee Pat, Kerry, Eidur, Hutch, Anelka, Finnieston and Baldwin.

 

Oh, and Jimmy Floyd.
