I'm a West Ham fan but have to admit, the Chelsea team of this era was just scary. Essien and Drogba in particular, absolute beasts, but Chelsea as a whole were one of the most dominant teams around. Crazy how far they've fallen in 2023
Yup i remember this season i was in year8, the battles with Liverpool were peak, all top4 teams in PL used to reach semis or knock each out at the quarters
i love the fact that chelsea has so many dominant cultures.. You have the african players ( who speak french), then you have the french players,, then you have the portugese,, and then you have the english.. we do all get along

Yes these black boys used to be monsters. Football is getting less interesting after the old school players retire.. It started with Roberto Baggio and now Pirlo, Ronaldinho, Kaka and so on..
So three of the best 4 defensive midfielders of all time have played for Chelsea, Maka, Lassana and Kante, the 4th Vieira. We actually had Maka, and his heir apparent Lassana in the team at same time. Wow!
Huh? Makalele was one of the best defensive midfielders of all time. Lassana Diarra is lightyears away from that conversation however you think of him, positionally. Like, he's futher than Nicky Butt from that conversation. There are twenty better DM's playing the the EPL this weekend.
This just made my day LMFAO ! The Innocence, Brotherliness and lack of Ego amongst pairs no wonder the team did so well and of course under the Great Jose Mourinho. The good old days
UA-cam recommends me after 14 years... Btw feeling nostalgic great old days. L. Diarra was feeling really nervous and uncomfortable while speaking English 😂 but these players were really good 👌
I cant believe Lass Diarra was the most underrated player, Yet he made Lionel Messi with 2 Ballon d'Or look useless; as all his fast dribbles on Diarra failed when Diarra played for Real Madrid. But Perez sold him
@@ahmadsalihin8210 Yes Sir that what make football interesting. On Day Is One Day. That’s why Leo got away from Diarra. And it’s Messi if you can win most of challenges vs; Ronaldinho, Messi or Ronaldo 9. Then your are outstanding and that was That Diarra.
i'm a liverpool supporter and this is iike the funniest thing i have ever seen! Drogba and Essien are HILARIOUS i will never look at them the same way again!!!
Yeah, I miss Lass! We never should have sold him. I don't know why we ever got rid of SWP or Lass, two great players that were never properly replaced!
Yes, Geremi is from Cameroon where they speak french (also a 15% of english speakers there, especially in the west, for your culture ;)) ; and Kalou and Drogba are from Ivory Coast where people only speak french. As for Essien, he is from Ghana which is an english speaking country, but he has played in France for many years before coming to Chelsea (Olympique Lyonnais and SC Bastia were his previous teams) and that's why he is able to speak french.
@@ugo31u Say only essien and Drogba then Makelele so not only cuz these are 3 on 5. Lassana was also World class player and Salomon Kalou was very good player too.
Gap2050 So are you saying Diarra is the Omega male there? Given that you have a picture of a wolf as your profile pic its not strange that you very much care about wolf packs.
Because times flies, i would like to introduce those players, from the left; Claude Makélélé, Michael Essien, Florent Malouda, Lassana Diarra, Didier Drogba. At nowdays they would be worth billions...
The respect these African guys have is incredible, Essien let go the second Geremi told him to, because he is an older guy. Chelsea really had some characters back then. The current crop are arseholes.
There are only 3 white guys in the pitch which cech terry and lampard. The strongest team in playsation 2. Once they have the ball you'll never get ot back
u gotta say geremi was iek his mentor at chelsea, now hes better then geremi, GEREMI WAS LIKE A BOSS!! essien was holding on to diarras hand. geemi says essien. and essien lets go.

With Ramires on RW, just for lols

The rivalry between Chelsea, United and Liverpool then was goated. Such a shame to see United and Chelsea so far off their peak

We didn't have eyes back then😂😂
I think that there's something with the quality video with UA-cam, maybe in 2030 720p will be this quality
They need to show this clip at the start of every season at Chelsea. There is unity here.
quality banter
