My Best Chelsea XI : Cech, Azpilicueta, Cahill, Terry, Cole, Luiz, Ramires, Eto’o, Mata, Hazard, Torres) Petr Cech: One of the best keepers in the world. Need I say anything more? As much as I always respected Mark from his Fulham days, he will have to give 200% of his usual performances to even threaten Cech’s position. Azpilicueta: Ivanovic has been solid. But in my view, it’s time we gave Cesar the spot. Frankly speaking, he has the potential to surpass Iva within a season or two, given sufficient playing time that is! It will be a big loss to us as well as azpi himself if he is benched in the long run. Cahill + Terry: I would had loved to include Ivanovic in place of either of these two as in my view Iva is a better CB. But then, there won’t be a cover for RB. Then, we have Jt and Cahill, two old fashioned center backs who are solid at the back and really a threat at set pieces. Ashley Cole: With the current form Ashley Cole deserves to be on the bench, but the poor future planning left us with Ryan as our only possible back up. Ryan is a talented lad, but nothing Ashley Cole- ish in him. We cannot expect a Ashley Cole sort of leveled performance from him. I’ll just hope that this down form of Ash will be just a once in a blue moon sort of thing and he will get back to his very best. David Luiz + Ramires: David Luiz is not a defender! He has too much energy and enthusiasm packed within him to stay at defense. He loves getting forward and helps the attackers, playing as DM the attackers will thrive on his ability to pick a fine pass. While Ramires is one who can cover every inch of grass. He has improvised his goal scoring abilities and time after time he proves why he is so important to the team. Mata: Here is what it gets interesting. I am not fielding a 4-5-1, but more of a 4-3-3 (4-2-1-2-1) Say what you may, Mata’s attacking prowess is unmatched. Oscar may be a better goal scorer, but I’d expect my AM to be more keen to assist rather than score. Moreover, Mata isn’t second best at scoring either. Oscar is better defensively, but the job to look at is attacking, not defending. When Oscar without Mata the plays the play gets too cramped. No one is better than Mata at providing over providing the head passes to our strikers. Hazard: His form may be sort of up and down right now. But when he is on the pitch at least two to three defenders have to stay around him, because you know how he manages to bring in the spectacular now and then. His presence is always beneficial in one way or the other. Eto’o: Not exactly a RW, but an Anelka- ish role. Eto in his past has been a good target man, but a better supporting striker. At Inter he really thrived on his partnership with Diego Milito, and since he has not slacked off in terms of work- rate, I’d love him to form a partnership with our front man. Torres: Our best striker at the moment. He might be goal-shy but his movements always cause terrors to the opposition, and if he manages a similar achievement like last season, its job well done! #InChelseaWeBelieve
