Chelsea ’15 vs. Chelsea ’05: Picking a dream starting XI from Jose Mourinho’s first and latest title winners

DC: John Terry

John Terry was a key man in both the 2005 and the 2015 generation.

The centre-back may have slowed down a little—but the former England captain still has magnificent leadership qualities and the ability to impose himself physically when the occasional calls for it.

DC: Ricardo Carvalho vs. Gary Cahill

Gary Cahill has done a fine job this season under Mourinho and is a worthy title-winner, but he doesn’t quite complement John Terry like Carvalho did.

The centre-back—who also featured for the Portuguese coach at FC Porto and Real Madrid—was composed with the ball at his feet and was able to play the ball out from the back.

He also had grit, and settled well in the Premier League.

Winner: Ricardo Carvalho
