Mmmmm the best player I’ve seen in the flesh was Eusebio !!

Sadly I don’t remember a thing about the game as I was just young .. . he played in a testimonial at Burnden Park, Bolton .

The next best player I’ve seen in the flesh was Peter Osgood who I saw quite a few times in the seventies ... my dad took me anywhere that Chelsea visited nearby ... against both Manchester clubs , Burnley and Bolton ... even lowly Bury in a couple of Cup games .

He’d be priceless these days .

I was a Chelsea fan as a teenager...
