Chelsea have been blessed with the presence of many Brazilian stars in recent history. From defender David Luiz to attacking midfielder Oscar, Chelsea haven’t been short of a skilful Samba star.
However, problems arose on Twitter, when a user on the social media platform asked the Blues fans who their favourite Brazilian player to have played for the club was. There were many answers from hundreds of fans, however, none more so popular than Ramires, remember him?

Ramires is best remembered for scoring one of the greatest goals in Chelsea’s recent history, a delicate chip over the head of Victor Valdes, as Chelsea headed into half-time 2-1 and a man down in the Champions League semi-final in 2012.
Ramires enjoyed a brilliant career at Chelsea amassing a total of five trophies during his six years at the club.
Here is a selection of tweets from Chelsea fans, who seem sure that Ramires is the best Brazilian to have ever played for the club:
I’ve got to say I agree with the majority. My favourite Brazilian of all time, to wear a Chelsea shirt is Ramires! Chelsea fans with never forget THAT chip!???? #CFC #ChelseaFamily pic.twitter.com/xHCLiZsx4i

Ramires, but a long range stunner from Alex also got the blood going.
