Why Chelsea ?

[Tomo 21,733]

You dont choose your club it choses you.

I was about 3 when i realized i was a Chelsea supporter but in reality i think the decision was made for me when i was born.

[Rubber bullets 1,183]

My Dad and Brother were West Ham fans and as a sort of an act f rebellion I decided to support another London club and Chelsea just seem to attract me.

tbh , it all started with mourinho .

but then i developed this bond with the likes of Lamps , JT , Drogba , Maka , Essien , godjensen and co . ... i started to support chelsea for 2 reasons:

1- Mourinho : i used to support mourinho since his days with porto and i liked his tactics

2- Man utd : My most hated team .

but now those reasons mean nothing for me .

Started off as a Gers supporter, seemed only natural to support Chelsea. Over time my infatuation has grown.

*Im not from englend, its just that my country name not existed in the list here... dont know why btw *

I like Chelsea since 2005 but i didnt really support them yet. I started to watch games and really follow them since 2006/7.

I started to like Chelsea because of couple of things:

1. Drogba!

2. Lampard!

3. Mourinho!!! I was crazy about him since the first interview with him that i saw. I also off course liked the football that he bring to chelsea, how everybody loved

him in the squad and fought for him. And the fact that he doesnt give a shit about any media staff and "respect for the other clubs"... i wish he will be back in chelsea!

4. The fact that everybody hates Chelsea. I mean now its not like before, a lot less, but in 2005 after Roman spend that big money in 2003,

and than Mourinho came... everyone hated that rich Chelsea that reached the top so quickly without any building and shit(fuck that!)

A lot of times i like what everyone hates X:

Blame my dad, he's a United fan. Was also a huge fan of JFH at the time when I started getting into the sport. I was never that big on football to be frank, I preferred basketball but now it's totally the other way around.

Adrian Mutu.

Before him, it was Petrescu, but the media in Romania was not so developed when Mr. Dan was playing for The Blues. Mutu is the one who made Chelsea known in Romania, even though his Chelsea story had a bad ending. I started to watch Chelsea's matches in the Uefa Champions League. Then, the TV stations started to broadcast the English Premier League. I can not lie. I used to like Liverpool too (specially after the 2005 UCL final), but neh...Lampard is better than Gerrard.

Gianluca Vialli held me at gunpoint and said 'Support Chelsea you little bitch,' I thought it would have been rude to say no.

My whole family (on my dads side) have always been Chelsea fans, it was a natural thing for me to support Chelsea and have been wearing Chelsea kits since i was born. Still have nothing but love for the club, and i'll support them forever.

firstly it was game against arsenal in champions league 2004, but the right fact is Petr Čech. He is my favourite player from years when he was in Sparta Prague (I hate Sparta Prague, but Čech was the best for me ). Nowdays I love all around the club!

I started to watch football around 98-99 but in my country I could only watch national games and Champions League so I watched all the matches of my country (Slovenia) and the matches that they showed of CL. I didn't really cheer for anyone but I liked Real Madrid and Juventus because of players like Figo, Ronaldo, Trezeguet, Davids, Nedved and some others. Usually I start to like the team because of a certain player and I watched alot of games of Crespo & Drogba a season before they went to Chelsea and then started watching Chelsea in Champions League. A year or two later I could watch EPL games on my TV and i realised I really like Chelsea so since then I watched almost every game they play and they are the first team I really cheer for.

Never really showed an intrest in football in general till 2005 when watched the Community Shield game against Arsenal in Greece and from then kinda oooo.

Great Grandad was a Chels fan.His brother was Millwall fan but it he went Chels lucikly lol! Took my Grandad who took my Uncles and my mum so growing up it was always on in the house sorta thing and even when little even though didnt have a clue who played but had the odd key ring and shirt even though didnt really follow knew a little bit.And was always gana be Chels really..espically after the ole 'support Liverpool you can live in the garge' off my mum lol..

And then after the CS,got more into it and volia

This man: Tore André Flo, made me recognise what force chelsea was becoming. It was a joy for me to watch him. I dont know why but it just happened. then came Zola.

But as someone said, you dont choose a club, the club chooses you.
