Chelsea have been linked with a move to Lionel Messi

Despite being 33, Messi is arguably the best player in world football. Having endured a few difficult seasons at the Nou Camp, a chance to start his career afresh elsewhere could be tempting.

As for Chelsea, bringing in a player considered to be among the greatest ever would be nothing short of a coup.

Add Messi to that list and we are in the fray to call this summer as the best ever in the club’s history. Former Manchester United star Rio Ferdinand did little to dispel anticipation by linking Lampard with an interest in the Barcelona star.

A number of Chelsea fans took to Twitter to voice their opinion on the matter. We take a look at a few of them below.
