London's "Chelsea" coach Jose Mourinho said that the best XI of the 2014-15 Premier League season should be made up only of his team's footballers. Although even six "aristocrats" made it into the symbolic team - Branislav Ivanovic, John Terry, Gary Cahill, Eden Hazard, Nemanja Matic, and Diego Costa - the Portuguese would like to see even more of his proteges in it, especially Cesc Fabregas. When asked whether there should be more "Chelsea" players in the best XI, Mourinho replied: "Yes. All. I think so. But here is speaking the "Chelsea" coach. Obviously, I respect every player in the symbolic team, especially those who assembled the team. Players from other teams have the right to choose." "There are great footballers in both this team and among those who did not make it. It's strange not to see Fabregas, who had a lot of assists this season, in it." "I think this team wouldn't win the Premier League. It lacks balance. It doesn't have a central midfielder. Fabregas should be in that position." The best XI also included "Manchester United" goalkeeper David De Gea, "Southampton" defender and former "Chelsea" player Ryan Bertrand, London's "Arsenal" leader Alexis Sanchez, "Liverpool" attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho, and "Tottenham" striker Harry Kane.
