This podcast is like a message to the new regime about what Chelsea is over the years ,we don't care about project ,we are winners,either ugly or beautiful football,just win and get a trophy or two at the end of the season,I am very sure the current players are watching this as a source of motivation
Can we all kindly take a moment to appreciate John obi Mikel, you can agree he’s bringing us way closer to the unfiltered life of footballers and coaches. Thank you Skippo!
There’s nothing that makes me more happy than this. I love Chelsea more then my own life so seeing all these legends comeback and John obi lead it all warms my heart top men all around 💙
This is podcast is so wild for the last generation of fans. I remember early 90s we were a bit up n down, but that year Hoddle came, brought Gullit, & within a very short period our beloved Chelsea was transforming into a dominant team. Not what we saw with Roman; but the foundations had been laid, by Wise, Clarkey, Luca, Roberto, Leboeuf, Zola, Marcel etc, top notch pro’s leading the charge for the next generation. Thanks Zola, for everything, we love you. 💙 #GotPlentyOfHistory #Carefree
I like how the host just goes smooth with the questions. Love the chemistry between you two. I cant wait to see African legends like Essien, Drogba, Adebayor, Eto, Asamoah Gyan etc
The Italian Magician #25 when Gianfranco Zola played it was like watching art and magic. This was before Hazard. Before J Cole. The fact that Chelsea signed him at the time they did was incredible. What's your top 5 Gianfranco Zola moments at Chelsea?
OBI ONE Podcast actually came when we needed the solidarity and love for Chelsea again despite the challenges we are facing. This is the best time and I hope the players when they have the time should listen to this. This will give them them the perspective of what this club is and the culture and where we should be. I love this…this is igniting and a wake up motivation for all Chelsea fans. I hope someday they interview Boehly and Egbahli. I love this podcast.
I remember being five years old when I first saw zola play for chelsea, took my dad to the charity game against bayern a couple months ago and seeing Zola with the flick assist, the crowd roaring when he stood up, made me and my dad almost cry with joy
Deffo Obi is a legend in football and he's able to draw in big player's to interview... Zola was my favorite Chelsea player and he learnt from the likes of Maradona...💙💙💙
Weldon John great work, bringing us closer to the Legends. Here's a suggestion, some of the younger generations sometimes get lost when you guys talk about great highlight moments, it would be awesome to play some of the clips.
Wow Mikel training alone for 6 months for representing the Nigerian Olympic team?! And even paying for player's welfare and accomodations. Then going on to win the bronze 🥉 medal. Wow! Mikel you deserve every good thing that comes your way and even more. We the Nigerian citizens appreciate your dedication, passion and contributions. God bless your good heart Skippo! 🩵
A select few may remember the ‘Zola Power’ section of the 1998/99 season VHS. Had that on repeat as a child. What a legend. Such a classy player and gentlemen. Thank you Gianfranco! Legend!
I fell in love with this club when I watched the final in 1998 against Stuttgart and watching Zola. 25 years later I am still loving this club and Zola is the reason for it.
As an ardent Chelsea Football Club fan and a thoroughbred Nigerian, I cannot express enough how proud I am of Mikel Obi and The Obi One Podcast! #UTC #CFC 💙
Thank you Obi for having Zola on the podcast. I don't know how you can top this episode. absolute legend and one of the greatest to pull a Chelsea shirt on.
Franco was and is the best all round gentleman in football but one moment will always stay with me was a game where he was substituted and received a standing ovation from both sets of supporters, he is alongside Kante my absolute best Chelsea player(s)
A lot of kids when growing up playing football in the streets, the best ones will always have a Zola nickname ❤ Legend, you will be surprised how many people have Zola nickname in Africa especially Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
John PLEASE bring me Eden Hazard, he’s the reason I love football & I really started to watch football properly once I fell in love with hazard, he’s my football idol, I would love to see him on here🙏🏼
Zola was the reason I started to support Chelsea. I remember the Cup winners cup victory in 1997. Autoglass sky blue jersey. Zola was the real deal, exceptionally gifted
Zola Power! The Chelsea GOAT I wish you asked him about the USA 94 red card in the game against Nigeria, the Euro 96 penalty miss or the goal against England in the run-up to the 98 world cup(I still don't know why he wasn't in the 98 squad). I wished he had more success in the Italian national team. I have so many memories watching the great "25" (Caicedo better shape up or take off the jersey number)
For real. He is. I didn't expect him to go this route but it seems natural and organic because he loves the game & enjoys football conversations. Amazing mate!
I know it is additional work , and there may be copyright issues to sort out, but the details of these video interviews will be more enriched if you cut in some of the reference highlights like Zola's technical goal and so on
Chris asked where is Kanu now?...This is why he should be a guest on the show. Because he currently is the Chairman of the most successful Nigerian men's club #EnyimbaFC and he recently secured them a shirt sponsor literally months after being announced as the new Chairman for Enyimba FC
This Podcast came up at a time whereby the current Chelsea players in my view tapped inspiration. Cos they have been improving since this podcast. Maybe, just maybe they listened to constructive analyses. Well done John.
As a lifelong Chelsea fan these podcasts are just amazing
Yes sir 💙
Ditto to that 👌🏻🔵
Indeed! He got heavyweight guests in all 5 episodes. We are over the moon!
Not Chelsea but agree these are class to watch, so many gems.
Can't agree more with this. So nostalgic seeing all these Chelsea legends talking about their times
The best podcast for Chelsea fans, bringing those LEGENDS is wild 🙌
Absolutely love what Mikel is doing
Bring Hazard
This podcast is like a message to the new regime about what Chelsea is over the years ,we don't care about project ,we are winners,either ugly or beautiful football,just win and get a trophy or two at the end of the season,I am very sure the current players are watching this as a source of motivation
Bring Essien
Can we all kindly take a moment to appreciate John obi Mikel, you can agree he’s bringing us way closer to the unfiltered life of footballers and coaches. Thank you Skippo!
There’s nothing that makes me more happy than this. I love Chelsea more then my own life so seeing all these legends comeback and John obi lead it all warms my heart top men all around 💙
The BEST Chelsea podcast by far! By legends on the club, it could not be any better. Just hoping for Drogba and Hazard and maybe even Mata as guests!
Zola is the reason I started support chelsea. It was a pleasure when he came back as a coach. It didn't matter to me that it was so short
This is podcast is so wild for the last generation of fans.

The greatest Chelsea player ever at Stamford bridge. Zola never disappointed.

His assist for Babayaro against Boro in 2002.
THAT goal vs Norwich
When you look on paper that team was filled with legends wow
Zola, Gullit, desaily, viali, wise...

Another legend on the pod. It only gets better. Every Chelsea fan should plug into this 💙
This podcast just doesn't miss. Hit guest after hit guest. If they pull in Roman, that wouldn't be topped. Ever!
Wow Mikel training alone for 6 months for representing the Nigerian Olympic team?! And even paying for player's welfare and accomodations. Then going on to win the bronze 🥉 medal. Wow!

Glad to see the legendary Zola on the pod. Man was the reason I started to support Chelsea FC.
I loved watching Gianfranco play, his sublime technique and deft touches on the ball made him a joy to watch. Dude was sooo good 👌
The best podcast ever, I mean Zola!! Im a huge fan
Brilliant , just brilliant , really makes my week,
A lot of kids when growing up playing football in the streets, the best ones will always have a Zola nickname ❤ Legend, you will be surprised how many people have Zola nickname in Africa especially Zimbabwe 🇿🇼
John PLEASE bring me Eden Hazard, he’s the reason I love football & I really started to watch football properly once I fell in love with hazard, he’s my football idol, I would love to see him on here🙏🏼

Amazing work John Obi and Chris
As a Chelsea fan I am so happy and as a Nigerian I am so proud❤🎉
It's another favourite series, thanks, Obi
Always interesting to watch, i watch with a lot of patience 💙
We need eps 10 only for Eden Hazard 😉
Loved Zola growing up.. what a player. Absolute magician 🪄
Wherever he is , Zola is the one player who lured me to Chelsea. Because of his special skills and goals.
Gianfranco will always be my number one. Legend in every sense.
Zola is still my favorite player! Same as number 25🎉 One love!
I didn't watch Zola play for Chelsea back then we didn't have electricity or a tv but we used to listen to football on my dad's radio
Zola Power! The Chelsea GOAT
I wish you asked him about the USA 94 red card in the game against Nigeria, the Euro 96 penalty miss or the goal against England in the run-up to the 98 world cup(I still don't know why he wasn't in the 98 squad).
I wished he had more success in the Italian national team. I have so many memories watching the great "25" (Caicedo better shape up or take off the jersey number)
So happy for my brother, you're doing well.
For real. He is. I didn't expect him to go this route but it seems natural and organic because he loves the game & enjoys football conversations. Amazing mate!
Bring Schurlle I wanted to know what happened to him at Chelsea
Great shout
He’s on Instagram. Does fitness stuff. Would be really cool
Morinho didn’t fancy him
Yeah…was a very good player.
I agree with you 💯
Gianfranco Zola the man that made love and support Chelsea.
Legends everywhere...💙
Such a top episode, love the Chelsea space
I love to dig up old matches watching talent like him play
I know it is additional work , and there may be copyright issues to sort out, but the details of these video interviews will be more enriched if you cut in some of the reference highlights like Zola's technical goal and so on
Zola era at Chelsea made going to the Bridge a must
The man who made me love football and become a chelsea fan as a 6 year old, annoying all the arsenal fans in my family. True legend
These podcasts are just amazing 💥
Chris asked where is Kanu now?...This is why he should be a guest on the show. Because he currently is the Chairman of the most successful Nigerian men's club #EnyimbaFC and he recently secured them a shirt sponsor literally months after being announced as the new Chairman for Enyimba FC
What an awesome session!
Great work guys...keep on bringing the great guests 💯🔥
Awesome when players go back to their childhood club to end their career. Zola at Cagliari and Roberto Baggio at Brescia
Big up obi don’t think you get credit you deserve very under appreciated but your a true Chelsea great the real faithful know utc 💙
Zola was imperious. Hazard was wizardry. Palmer will grow....he's a Prince.
Gianfranco Zola is not a “Chelsea” producut, he learned how to be a Magician at and thanks to Napoli, watching Maradona playing and train everydays!
Bring in Eden Hazard next
I’ve seen all the podcasts bar Oshiman. If he comes to Chelsea then I’ll have a listen. I’m still in for Ivan Toney to be fair
Hazard and Drogba next. And also maybe some of the girls… Fran Kirb or a legend from the past 👀
A podcast for every true Chelsea fan
This Podcast came up at a time whereby the current Chelsea players in my view tapped inspiration. Cos they have been improving since this podcast. Maybe, just maybe they listened to constructive analyses. Well done John.
MY FAVE PODCAST
Hazard will always be an Enigma for me.
Amazing podcast
Piont Of Correction, Kanu Played Till 2010 So He Played And Achieved Literally Everything The Game Has To Offer.
Zola small man with big talent.
Great podcast...
Ps: Mikel has finished the word "obviously" from the dictionary 😂
I think more Pictures of the ex players who join the podcast would make the podcast much better
Kanu is actually doing much 😅😅 as he is currently the Chairman of Nigeria Professional Football League side Enyimba.
Zola played with a smile like our Kante used to
The real Chelsea tv is right here
Legend.
Is this podcast going to be on Naples😅😂😂😂😂 @zola legend
Damn obi i love u
Please John Mikel Obi pleaseeee bring Nicola Anelka
Grande Zola ❤️🙏
Please get Hazard on this
yeesssss
Great Zola
This is the man that made me become a Chelsea fan when I was a kid watching football that game against Liverpool he destroyed Jamie Carriger
Please can you track Celestine Babayaro and get him on this poscast?
Please get NGOLO and HAZARD on the podcast
PLEASE INCREASE THE AUDIO..THE VOLUME IS ALWAYS VERY LOW
The king
Blues Legend
Can you someday invite Andre schurrle and why he retired so early from the Game 😊
