January 22, 20197 yr There are 19 according to this site, most I remembered yet some had slipped my mind, I never knew Anelka won the Golden boot with us: https://www.planetfootball.com/quick-reads/ranking-the-19-chelsea-strikers-signed-under-roman-abramovich/
January 22, 20197 yr Without looking i doubt i will be able to name all 19, but if i had to rank the ones i can remember i would go: Drogba Costa Crespo Anelka I would group these 4 together as the top 4 and most influential in terms of how good they were, and what we won with them in the side. Then i would group the following 3 together: Torres Shevchenko Mutu 3 Players that showed flashes of brilliance for us, but it didn't work out for one reason or another Then finally i would group together: Morata Falcao Pato As 3 players we should never have even bothered with signing. Obviously i know that isn't the full 19 and I know people will disagree with some of my placements but it is just my opinion
January 22, 20197 yr Author You missed Demba Ba and for me Mutu actually did ok until his drugs problem became an issue and then he was dropped. I think Morata needs to be grouped with Torres, at least he was decent for a while.

January 24, 20197 yr Lukaku and Michy are another two who didn't hit the heights. Kalou was probably our best second striker.

June 14, 20197 yr Interesting list. Anelka was somewhat underrated and had an outstanding season in 2008/2009 (when Scolari and Hiddink were managing us). I think Drogba and Costa have been our best strikers in the Abramovich era by a country mile. Good to see Ba and Eto'o fairly high on the list. While they were not first choice strikers, their numbers are decent. Edited June 14, 20197 yr by Jezz
