Chelsea in the 1987-1988 Season
The 1987-1988 season was an important year for Chelsea in the English First Division, then the highest level of English football. The club worked hard to establish itself among the strongest teams in the country and continued building a squad that would become increasingly competitive in the years that followed.
The squad featured well known names from that era. Players such as Kerry Dixon, one of Chelsea’s most prolific goalscorers of the 1980s, played a key role in attack.

In defence, experienced players such as Steve Clarke and Nigel Spackman provided stability and organisation.
With a team full of character and determination, Chelsea remained a dangerous opponent, especially in home matches at Stamford Bridge.
