SHOOT’s Chelsea-Arsenal combined XI

Centre-back: Antonio Rudiger (Chelsea)

Partnering Koscielny would be Chelsea’s Antonio Rudiger, a solid and stable centre-half.

The Germany international, 25, has played the full 90 minutes in both of The Blues’ competitive games under new boss Sarri so far this campaign, and he will be a key player under the Italian as he enters his prime years.

Rudiger scored three goals in 45 outings in all competitions in 2017-18.
