8. Frank Lampard
The club’s record goalscorer, with 147 goals in 429 appearances, actually made some fans unhappy with his expensive price tag of £11m in 2001. But looking back, that could be one of the best transfer deals of all time, as the midfielder helped Chelsea win just about everything you can win in his time, including the Footballer of the Year for himself.
7. Petr Cech
Despite having to see Cech in Arsenal’s colours next season, there is no denying that Cech has been the best keeper in Chelsea’s history. The £7m transfer fee, paid to Rennes in 2002, was great value.
