In sporting terms, a Perfect 10 simply cannot be bettered. When stars get this coveted maximum score, it means they are simply in a class of their own. Now, some of Britain's leading football journalists have adapted the phrase to pick up on a fascinating publishing challenge. They were asked to select a top club and name their "Perfect 10" list of players, using the timescale of the trail-blazing 1960's right up to the modern world of mega million fees and global transfers.

"Chelsea's Perfect 10" features pages of personal debate as Barnett considers and dismisses the claims of some real superstars in his ultimate search for the greatest of them all. Read Less
