Chelsea Celebrates 120 Years: Legends Assemble in All-Time Best Team
As Chelsea Football Club marks its 120th anniversary, the club and its fans have been reminiscing about the legends who have graced Stamford Bridge over the years. In a celebratory nod to the past, Chelsea has unveiled its all-time best team, featuring iconic names like Thiago Silva, Eden Hazard, and Didier Drogba.
Thiago Silva, the experienced centre-back who has been a stalwart in Chelsea's defense since joining from Paris Saint-Germain, has been included in this prestigious lineup. Alongside him, the attacking prowess of Eden Hazard and Didier Drogba, both of whom have left indelible marks on the club's history, have been recognized. Hazard, known for his flair and creativity, and Drogba, famed for his crucial goals, especially in the Champions League, are celebrated as part of this elite group.
Notably, former captain John Terry named Frank Lampard as Chelsea's best-ever player and Cole Palmer as the most talented player to ever don the blue shirt. However, the selection of the all-time best team has sparked discussions, particularly about omissions like Branislav Ivanovic and Cole Palmer, who have also made significant contributions to the club.
This celebration not only honors the past but also highlights the rich tapestry of talent that has defined Chelsea's journey through football history.
