Pires, Ferguson, Henry, Sven, they've not waited for gray hair and grandchildren: they're already telling the world how Chelsea wanted them, "back in the day." So who's next? Every time you see a big name telling the world how he was chased by RA and CR, list it here and we'll see who we could have had, if only they'd deigned come off their throne to play for Chelsea.
I'm sure at one time we offered quite a few of the Madrid stars to come and play in that purple patch of transfers we had. Ronaldo was one of those and I think Beckham may have been. We offerred millions for Henry but he'd never leave Arsenal. What a pick up we could of had with Henry hitting the back of the net 30-40 times a year. Maybe we could start being competitive at Highbury. Go the Blues!
