DC: Laurent Koscielny (Arsenal)
One of the best centre-backs in the Premier League on his day, Laurent Koscielny gets into our combined XI due to John Terry’s poor recent form.
DC: Gary Cahill (Chelsea)
Another of the very best defenders in the country at the moment, Gary Cahill is set to become an even more important part of this Chelsea team now if Terry continues to sit out.
MC: Nemanja Matic (Chelsea)
Consistently excellent in the defensive midfield position last season, Nemanja Matic is undoubtedly one of the finest in Europe in this position, and keeps Arsenal’s impressive Francis Coquelin out.
MC: Santi Cazorla (Arsenal)
One of the best creative midfielders in Europe last season, Santi Cazorla has been exceptional for Arsenal and certainly deserves a spot in this combined XI ahead of the underperforming Cesc Fabregas.
