1. the first game you went to see for your team, what was the result?
Vanilla Park 67: Vanilla 2 - Chelsea 6 was the 1st game I've any recollection of but it's a bit of a blur with the mists of time. My dad took me and Bobby Tambling scored 5.
2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?
I wouldn't have thought I could have gone madder than I did have after Ossie's equaliser at Old Trafford for the 70 FA Cup Final ten minutes from time but I went absolutely berserk when Webby popped the winner in - and that was in the living room watching in Black n White!
3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?
Any one of our three relegations!
4. who is the most underrated player that you have had at your club? someone that you liked, but no one else seemed to rate.
Shevchenko, was never as bad as people made out.
Also Peter Houseman, not that he was particularly underrated but he was a fantastic player and never received the plaudits, that Ossie, Hudson, Cooke, etc used to get.
5. same as above, but an overrated player.
David Luiz
Surprised a lot of Tottenham fans have put BAE, I thought you all rated him and how he was honest about how he’s only in football for money
*have put BAE as overrated
1.No answer.2.Drogba's goals v Barcelona in 2005-2006 and Drogba's equaliser v Bayern Munchen in Champions League final in stoppage time.3.Chelsea losing v Sunderland in 2010-2011 season and Chelsea losing to Aston Villa in 2014-2015 season.4.One of the most overrated players I have ever seen playing for Chelsea are David Luiz,Ramires and John Obi Mikel.One of the most underrated and underappreciated players that played for Chelsea from 2004-2018 are Florent Malouda,Andre Schurrle,Soloman Kalou and Ricardo Quaresma.
Another underrated but quality player for Chelsea was Hernan Crespo.
Hernan Crespo was never quality for Chelsea.
Florent Malouda
Yeah, he was a great player to watch
1. the first game you went to see for your team, what was the result?
City Ground 1978 - First round First leg of the old European Cup. Forest beat Liverpool 2-1
2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?
Stuart Pearce Penalty Against Spain Euro 96. Nearly went as mental as he did!
3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?
Des Walkers own goal when we played Spurs in the 1991 FA Cup final. Would have loved to see Cloughie with that trophy....probably the only thing he didn't win !

Hernan Crespo was never quality for Chelsea.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He was top quality in his last season with us.
1. the first game you went to see for your team, what was the result?
Watford FA Cup 5th round 1980 lost 0-3
2. which goal have you celebrated hardest? (we all remember a goal when we went particularly crazy)?
Bully's winner against the Albion at the Hawthorns October 1989, absolutely mental scenes.
3. what would you say is the lowest point you have felt as a fan?
Relegation to Div 4 and walking in to an empty ground 10 minutes before kick off, unreserved seating sit where you like !!, two stands closed, 3000 eventually rocked up to see us beat Orient 3-2
4. who is the most underrated player that you have had at your club? someone that you liked, but no one else seemed to rate.
Difficult one that, possibly Stephen Ward, got criticised by Wolves fans for not being a natural left sided attacker/wing back, but went on to make over 150 premier league appearances and 50 odd international caps in that position
5. same as above, but an overrated player.
Chris Iwelumo, still revered at Molineux, but only really contributed for 4 months of his two year spell. See also - Leo Bonatini

----------------------------------------------------------------------
You Spurs boys really don't seem to rate him. Does he get abuse or does your current success mean that players avoid all that?

Well the comments about Hernan Crespo by non Chelsea fans just illustrates my point and show that they have lack of football knowledge and ignorance.They are just a bunch of dumb fans who even don't know much about their own beloved football clubs.

People criticise him on here a lot, too much in my opinion. He has limitations with his lack of pace, and isn't always the greatest defensively but can still make important contributions. Fans want to always look at the bad though and ignore the good, like they do with goalkeepers.

Aye, the idea that it is a team game goes out the window. Many fans don't look at the bigger picture and blame an individual when you get a bad result. We used to do the same with Walcott (although to be fair he was a lazy little shiete)
