Rhapsody in blue - Rick Glanvill

Chelsea fans, perhaps more than any others, are well acquainted with that prickly hardy perennial, Eternal Disappointment. Like the famous local flower shows, London's glamour club has enjoyed some memorable displays but, until they won the FA Cup in 1997 and the League Cup in 1998, too frequently closed each season with a wilt. It remains a club garlanded with glory, though, and in Rhapsody in Blue Rick Glanvill selects his all-time Chelsea dream team. Included are Peter Bonetti, Eddie McCreadie, Dave Webb, Paul Elliott, Dennis Wise, Terry Venables, Ray Wilkins, Pat Nevin, Ruud Gullit, Peter Osgood, Jimmy Greaves and manager Glenn Hoddle.
