Chelsea, A little Indian Guy, George Best, Bobby Charlton and
Denis Law
Sir Bobby Charlton, George Best and Denis Law:
They played together in Manchester United in 1970s. I had never watched them back then, but I had a chance to watch recently in Chelsea Channel showing vintage games. At their peak, George Best was god in England. Bobby was a hero and captain of the 1966 England World Cup Champion Team. Denis is famous player since I was very young, I heard about him. When Johan Cryff showed up and started inventing total football, every body heiled him he was a new George Best

So I looked at the Man U vintage game. Back in 1970s,
landscaping was not that very good, not like these days. Video Taping was not this
great like today’s games footages. And the speed, physical, ball controls, skills and team work was
lagging behind today’s English Premier League, Spain La Liga, Top first class
leagues standards. Even way behind than Asian league games standard. So Football (Soccer)
came a long way to date.
Chelsea FC Golden Years and Now:
Then I looked back and thought about Chelsea, my team. Once it was so colorful with three (3) captains of different national teams played together for only one football club in the world and that was Chelsea. Ivory Coast’s Didier Drogba, Germany’s Michael Ballack and John Terry of English. Back then, other players were Michael Essien (Ghana), Kalou, Mikel, Lampard, Peter Czech, all great players

Then Chelsea disappeared from my radar for a while. Right now,
little Brazilian Indian guy named William, David Luis with Brazil nation team,
French great goalkeeper Thibaut Courtoir, Pedro with Spain, great striker from
Belgium Eden Hazard, British team captain Gary Cahill (24) are playing with
Chelsea FC. Their plays is still colourful and fun
