Back to the normal format this week, six questions with a City/Chelsea connection – answers tomorrow.

90’s. Easy one this, name the Chelsea player who had a loan spell at Cardiff in 91/92 and which other player in our squad that season started his career at Stamford Bridge?
00’s. This player had a spell with us during this decade and then went on to win Champions League and FA Cup winners medals, can you name him?
