Explanation

Chelsea's first crest, used from 1905-1952, featured a Chelsea Pensioner - a military pensioner from the nearby Royal Hospital Chelsea. In 1953, the club changed to the upright blue lion crest (option C). The current blue lion rampant design was adopted later in the 1950s. The 'C.F.C.' initials and 'Three red roses' were never part of Chelsea's official crest designs.
