I'd say a lot of the late-90s Chelsea players fall into that bracket IMO. Granted I started following football in the mid-late 90s and supported Chelsea so am heavily biased.
Will always remember when West Ham fired Zola and the reporters were gathered outside his house. So he came out and served them coffee. A class act for sure.
mmccarthy-
a different class indeed. Most London born Italians I grew up with were Chelsea fans through and through.. and i suspect that players like Gianluca and Gianfranco felt the love, not just from the Bridge or indeed other London clubs but from the city that was home for them at the time of their playing careers.
We were blessed to have him here

There aren’t many at Chelsea, I’d tip my hat to. However Gianluca Vialli..
un uomo da rispettare
un calciatore da ammirare
ciao bello
riposare in pace
