Perhaps due to difficulties in pronouncing the Spaniard&#8217;s surname, Chelsea players opted to affectionately dub him Dave, which is a reference to Trigger&#8217;s name for Rodney in the classic British sitcom <em>Only Fools and Horses<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;C\u00e9sar&#8217;s not even that hard,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/sport\/football\/teams\/chelsea\/9961236\/Cesar-Azpilicueta-my-Chelsea-team-mates-call-me-Dave.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Azpilicueta said in 2013<\/a>. &#8220;But I suppose Azpilicueta is. Some said my name was too difficult to pronounce and could they call me Dave. It&#8217;s stuck. It&#8217;s also done affectionately.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And though Chelsea fans can clearly pronounce the Spaniard&#8217;s surname, as demonstrated by the song, the nickname Dave has stuck.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Hudson-Odoi, Chelsea since birth<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Lyrics:<\/strong> To the tune of Bob Marley &#8211; Buffalo Soldier<\/p>\n<p><em>Local lad from Wandsworth,<br \/>\nBeen Chelsea since birth.<br \/>\nRose through our academy,<br \/>\nPlays for club &amp; country.<br \/>\nWhen he\u2019s running down the wing,<br \/>\nYou can hear the Chelsea boys<br \/>\nSinging,<br \/>\nOi oi oi Hudson-Odoi,<br \/>\nOi oi oi Hudson-Odoi,<br \/>\nOi oi oi Hudson-Odoi,<br \/>\nOi oi oi Hudson-Odoi.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What does it mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not content with the stock &#8216;He&#8217;s one of our own&#8217; chant, Chelsea fans have decided to be a bit more creative with their ode to Callum Hudson-Odoi &#8211; potentially looking to remind the teenager of his roots amid Bayern Munich links.<\/p>\n<p>Very much a Chelsea boy, Hudson-Odoi grew up in the south-west London borough of Wandsworth and joined the club as a seven-year-old in 2007. Rising through the ranks, Hudson-Odoi enjoyed a lot of success with the Blues&#8217; youth teams, including two FA Youth Cups and often looked like a man playing among boys &#8211; such was his ability.<\/p>\n<p>Despite making his first-team debut under Antonio Conte, Hudson-Odoi had been frustrated with his Chelsea game time and only recently began to start frequently in the Premier League after good Europa League performances.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea fans will be hoping they can continue singing the song next season.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ruben Loftus-Cheek: the Lewisham Ballack<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Lyrics:<\/strong> To the tune of Salt-N-Pepa &#8211; Push It<\/p>\n<p><em>Been Chelsea since youth &#8211; but couldn&#8217;t get a game,<br \/>\nOn Loan at Palace &#8211; it just wasn&#8217;t the same,<br \/>\nIn centre mid now &#8211; he&#8217;s playing every week,<br \/>\nLewisham Ballack &#8211; It&#8217;s Ruben Loftus-Cheek <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Du du dududu it&#8217;s Ruben Loftus-Cheek<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does it mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The latest addition to Chelsea&#8217;s songbook praises another of their academy players.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea fans have long had to suffer seeing the club failing to utilise their wonderful youth system, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek one of those talents falling victim.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the Englishman was sent on loan to fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace and showed Chelsea what they were missing, earning himself a place in England&#8217;s World Cup squad.<\/p>\n<p>And after a slow start under Maurizio Sarri, as the Italian learned more about his man, Loftus-Cheek appears to be Chelsea&#8217;s first-choice for the left side of their midfield, much to the delight of the Blues faithful.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Willian hates Tottenham<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Lyrics:<\/strong> To the tune of The Piranhas &#8211; Tom Hark<\/p>\n<p><em>The s*** from Spurs, they bought his flight,<br \/>\nBut Willian he saw the light,<br \/>\nHe got the call from Abramovich,<br \/>\nAnd off he went to Stamford Bridge.<br \/>\nHe hates Tottenham, he hates Tottenham,<br \/>\nHe hates Tottenham and he hates Tottenham.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What does it mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Willian is somewhat of a fanbase-splitting player at Stamford Bridge. Some feel the Brazilian does not do enough to warrant starting ahead of certain youngsters, but that doesn&#8217;t stop his name being chanted at every Chelsea game &#8211; though much of the reason for this is probably due to the latter line.<\/p>\n<p>In August 2013, Willian had travelled to London to undergo a medical at Tottenham Hotspur, which he did complete. But while the medical was ongoing, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich agreed a deal with his Anzhi Makhachkala counterpart Suleyman Kerimov.<\/p>\n<p>The deal would see Chelsea pay slightly more than Tottenham&#8217;s proposed offer and result in Willian joining the Blues.<\/p>\n<p>There were reports the Brazilian had little say in his move, but Willian has since revealed Chelsea were always his first choice, and the Tottenham move only came as there was no other option.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You know my objective was to go to Chelsea, but since Chelsea don\u2019t want, then we\u2019re going to Tottenham,&#8221; he said in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I said &#8216;oh, I\u2019m going to sign with Tottenham, anyway, there\u2019s no other option&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then we\u2019re going in the van, on the way, get to the training centre, Kia [Joorabchian], my agent, is already down there, waiting. I thought it was weird, he was already at the door.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then I got out of the van, he said, \u2018we have problems\u2019. I said \u2018oh, what happened?\u2019 Then he [said] \u2018Chelsea made an offer\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I said, \u2018So make do, I\u2019ll get back in the van, you\u2019ll make do and I\u2019ll go to Chelsea, I will not sign with Tottenham.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Football chants: one of many ways fans show support for their clubs.
