    Granted that Bosingwa played excellent in the UCL semi final against Barcelona he was always too inconsistent. He wouldn't even make the squad. David Webb is a two time Chelsea player of the year winner and also Steve Clarke won Chelsea player of the year. Both Webb and Clarke easily get in the squad ahead of Bosingwa.

    AC--I think you've come close to the team I'd pick! I'm always creating my best ever X1 and it tends to be slightly different each time. I think I might have to have Jimmy-Floyd in my squad, and it would be a toss up between Clarkie and Webbie at RB! TBF it also seems a crime to leave Greaves out of the starting X1, but who do you leave out when Drogs and Ossie are there?

    Difficult one!! I've tried to do this many times; I pick a team and then remind myself about a player which I've left out!! So my squad of favorite players, not necessarily the best, since I started supporting Chelsea ('92)is;

    Cech
    Cudicini
    Kharine

    Petrescu
    Clarke
    Terry
    Desailly
    LeBouef
    Carvalho
    Gullit
    A. Cole
    Babayaro

    Wise
    Peacock
    Poyet
    DiMatteo
    Lampard
    Makalele
    J.Cole
    Gronkjaer (for 'that' goal)

    Zola
    Hasslebaink
    Drogba
    Spencer
    Gudjohnsen

    You can't have an all time best 11 without Jimmy Greaves and Charlie Cooke.

    It's too hard, we had a good discussion last year about it. I'm going to give one a go with players who played during my lifetime! Give me time :grin:

    That was so ****ing hard I decided to make two <laugh>

    and I've still left out some greats. Nevin being one of them, he had signed for Chelsea just before I was born so I'm obviously not too familiar with him. Peacock simply for his FA Cup antics of 94 and Spencer scored some wonder goals when I was a kid, those two were heroes. We've had too many brilliant players to merely include 11 so those two are teams that consist of my favourites <ok>

    Robben over Ballack, Petrescu over Clark...

    This game is the hardest in the world and always open to people doing waht I just have!

    Too many players, not enough positions!
