GK: Petr Cech
Although Ancelotti has also worked with the legendary Iker Casillas at Madrid and Dida at Milan, Chelsea great Petr Cech gets the nod in this lineup.
DR: Cafu
One of the best right-backs of all time, Cafu is comfortably in ahead of the likes of Branislav Ivanovic and Daniel Carvajal after his great success with Milan.
DL: Ashley Cole
