Greatest XI of Jose Mourinho

Forwards : Cristiano Ronaldo, Arjen Robben, Didier Drogba

The forward line was actually the easiest the fill in.

On the left you have one of the greatest footballers to ever play the game in Cristiano Ronaldo. It is worth mentioning that before Jose arrived at Real Madrid, Ronaldo’s best goal scoring season was 42 with Manchester United. After Jose’s arrival, Cristaino has never score below 50 in a season !

Jose has himself told it on many occasions that the greatest player he has ever managed is Drogba. That is one hell of a stamp of approval for the legendary Ivorian. His combination of power and speed made him a fearsome force at his peak. Add to the fact that he may be the greatest big game player ensures the presence of Drogba in this team.

The most contentious decision was the inclusion of Robben. Samuel Eto, Di Maria, Joe Cole and Eden Hazard were the other options. But for his sheer brilliance over a sustained period of time, Arjen Robben. Chelsea fans often wonder what would have happened if Robben stayed at Stamford Bridge, but for the time he was present he was a joy to watch.
