William Gallas sorely missed
8 January 2007The Blues of Stamford Bridge are definitely missing the versatility of William Gallas.
Injury to John Terry in the heart of our defence would have very easily and conveniently been covered by the talented Frenchman. I suddenly feel that we were conned into exchanging him for Ashley Cole and 5million pounds.
This is not taking anything from Ashley Cole but we definitely would have benefited more if Gallas was still in the side. My only consolation though is that he is injured and not playing presently but he will definitely be back.
Peter Osgood - Goodbye to a Chelsea Great
3 October 2006The greatest honour a club can bestow on a Player was conferred on Peter Osgood on Sunday Oct 1 with his ashes buried under the penalty spot.
It had started with the Chelsea Pensioners forming a guard of honour and the Coldstream Guards providing the music as Ossie entered the arena in his traditional way, behind captain Ron Harris and goalkeeper Peter Bonetti, but for this last time carried in a blue urn by widow Lynn with two of his sons, Anthony and Darren.
