Great team, but you will have all the dippers choking on their Jam butties.

Take out Sterling and replace with Kane and I'd go along with that.

GK: DDG probably most obvious one. Could also argue Lloris and Cech.

RB: I think walker or Azpilicueta are better options than Zabaleta. They have had more longevity and just as many seasons at a high class level as Zab.
CBs: Kompany a cert. and Terry as well, who actually left Terry a bit later than I think ppl realise, at end of 16/17. Was there for Conte’s title win as well as Jose’s, if not a starter in the former. Not really anyone else..as a Chelsea fan I feel luiz and Cahill have also had a successful last decade. Alderwiereld and Bertongjen, actually, could definitely be considered.
LB: i’d be loathe to choose Cole as he left the PL in 2013 and was declining in the years coming upto that. Baines and Rose could be considered, but i’d Probably cheat with Azpi at LB. tbf arguably his best season was at LB for our Jose title win.

CMs: Toure, Kante, Fabregas, Silva, Milner, Eriksen, Fernandinho could all be considered and probably more. I’d go for Silva and Milner personally. Milner has had a consistent, and long and successful decade. For DM it is tough and probably equal between Kante and Fernandinho. Kante plays for us so guess I’ll choose him 🤷🏿‍♂️

RW: Sterling defo has this on lock.
LW: Hazard
ST: kane or aguero the only choices, though you could perhaps consider Suarez on basis that the level he hit at Liverpool eclipses Aguero or Kane. But, Aguero for just being at the top longer than Kane, equal quality for me.

DDG
Walker Kompany Terry Azpi
Silva Kante Milner
Sterling Aguero Hazard
