Manchester United v Chelsea squad BATTLE: Is LVG’s best XI now better than Mourinho’s?

Posted by

DC: Chris Smalling vs John Terry

Another easy decision in central defence, with Chelsea star John Terry undoubtedly the superior player in a battle with Chris Smalling.

Vote: Terry

DC: Marcos Rojo vs Gary Cahill

Despite a decent first season for United, Marcos Rojo has some way to go before matching Gary Cahill’s magneficent achievements for Chelsea.

Vote: Cahill

MC: Morgan Schneiderlin vs Nemanja Matic

Two fantastic defensive midfielders and an extremely close call, but Chelsea’s Nemanja Matic is more proven at the very top level and edges this battle for the moment.

Vote: Matic

MC: Bastian Schweinsteiger vs Cesc Fabregas

A close call, but it looks like United could have the edge here with new-boy Bastian Schweinsteiger a real quality addition to the Premier League, while Cesc Fabregas is perhaps past his best.

Vote: Schweinsteiger
