CHELSEA icon Eidur Gudjohnsen was caught in two minds as was spotted at Stamford Bridge, cheering on his son.
Gudjohnsen, 46, starred for Chelsea across six seasons from 2000 to 2006.

While at Stamford Bridge the Iceland international made 263 appearances, scoring 78 goals and adding 40 assists.
His exploits helped the Blues win the Premier League twice under Jose Mourinho and landed the League Cup and Community Shield twice – one of which was pre-Mourinho.
Gudjohnsen returned to his old stomping ground during Chelsea’s clash with Gent in the Europa Conference League on Thursday night, but was not simply there to support the home side.
Instead, Gudjohnsen was present to cheer on his son, Andri, who was appearing for the visitors.
The 22-year-old managed to chip in with an assist as Tsuyoshi Watanabe scored for the Belgian side in the second half.
However, it was not enough to overcome Enzo Maresca‘s side as they romped to a 4-2 victory thanks to goals from Renato Veiga, Pedro Nero, Christopher Nkunku and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
Gudjohnsen senior was spotted in the stands wearing a black jumper, blue blazer and flat cap while also enjoying a hot beverage.
The 88-cap Iceland star has one daughter and three sons, all of whom are footballers at different levels.

Andri is his middle son, while 26-year-old eldest son Sveinn Aron stars for Norwegian outfit Sarpsborg 08 and youngest son Daníel Tristán stars for Swedish club Malmo.
Sveinn Aron joined his father on the trip, taking to Instagram to share a video as the stars emerged from the tunnel before the game.
Following his time at Chelsea Gudjohnsen went on to star for Barcelona from 2006, winning the Continental Treble under Pep Guardiola in 2009.
After moving to Monaco, Gudjohnsen then returned to England on loan with Tottenham from January 2010 to June 2010.
This was followed by a permanent transfer to Stoke that summer, where he stayed until January when he went to Fulham on loan.
Stints with Club Brugge, Bolton and Molde would follow before he retired in 2017.
