My Blood Is Blue Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Our captain came on for his 500th appearance for the club vs Liverpool. He is now Chelsea’s 6th highest appearance maker and the highest foreign appearance maker for the club. Legend. Although his form may be in decline, you cannot dispute the fact that he has been a huge contributor to our club and it’s success. He has maintained such a high level throughout his time with us. I remember when we signed him and I had no idea who he was, I definitely do now. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CnsDZAKJerx/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xceleryx Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Arguably one of, if not the most, consistent signings we've ever had. Not to mention absolute peak value for money. Will be interesting to see what his future holds come the summer. Happy to keep him around for the final year of his contract as filler, but also wouldn't begrudge him wanting to maybe move on for a bigger role elsewhere.

Mark Kelly Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 He's been nothing short of fantastic for us a real gem , sadly his legs appear to be letting him down now so I wouldn't be surprised to see him incorporated into the coaching team or allowed to retire back to Spajn.

I think he can still play RCB if we play a 3, but at RB or RWB, he just isn't fast enough anymore. Brilliant signing and ridiculously consistent. Great pro and example.

And a legend in his own right. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisb Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Sad to see him go but he deserves all the plaudits that will come his way. A true stalwart who gave everything for Chelsea and won almost everything too! Good luck for the future Dave, you’ve truly earned it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Kelly Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Its right and proper that they describe him as a "Chelsea Legend" because that's exactly what he is , I hope he thoroughly enjoys his time at Athletico but the time was right for all of us to part ways . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
