"La la la la Zola.... "... rings around the ground on a Saturday afternoon as the Chelsea fans salute their Italian hero. Zola has taken the place by storm since his arrival in November 1996. He is a free kick maestro, and can bend the ball with either foot in either direction with pace and amazing accuracy. Many a keeper have stood and admired as the ball whips past and sits in the back in the net ready for collection. He is without doubt one of the best players in the world, and that is all that needs to be said.
