	Peter Osgood - Telegraph
		Peter Osgood, who died yesterday aged 59, was a talismanic figure in the Chelsea side of the late 1960s and early 1970s.

	Peter Osgood - Profile of the Chelsea footballers career
		Osgood was the main man on and off the pitch when Chelsea first truly came to prominence in the 1960's and early 70's, providing class, flair and character both on and off the pitch.
		Peter Osgood was hugely influential in the 4-1 Stamford Bridge drubbing of Roma which probably led to Milan also choosing to man mark him in the next round.
		Peter Osgood is another example of a flair player from that era who flattered to deceive, perhaps, although when it is considered what defenders were allowed to get away with in their efforts to stop these players that is hardly surprising.

		Osgood was born in Windsor and joined Chelsea as a junior in 1964.
		Osgood was never likely to see eye to eye with Ramsey, nor was it likely that he would have easy relations with his Chelsea manager, Dave Sexton, an altogether more sober character, a devotee of the Jesuit philospher Teilhard de Chardin.
		On retiring, Osgood subsequently became a match day host at Stamford Bridge, only to cross swords with the always abrasive chairman, Ken Bates, and be brusquely banned from the stadium, though subsequently he was permitted to return.
