DC: Thiago Silva
As is often the case with these lineups, Thiago Silva picks himself at centre-back, and in fairness he has been one of the top players in the world in this position for some time.
DC: Alessandro Nesta
Silva’s old team-mate at AC Milan, Alessandro Nesta is a legend of the game and one of the best defenders of the modern era.
MC: Thiago Motta
One of his team-mates at PSG, Thiago Motta has been a key player in midfield for the French giants and looks a good pick in this role.
MC: Andrea Pirlo
Another former Milan team-mate, Andrea Pirlo remains one of Europe’s top playmakers and an all-time midfield great.
MC: Clarence Seedorf
Along with Pirlo, Clarence Seedorf formed one of the great midfields of modern times at Milan, and is not a surprise pick here by Silva.
FR: Neymar
One of the best attacking players in the world right now, Silva’s Brazilian team-mate Neymar is an obvious choice in this front three.
FL: Ronaldinho
A Brazilian legend, Ronaldinho is another obvious pick by Silva on the left-hand side of this attacking trio.
FC: Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Silva’s current PSG team-mate and one of the best strikers in the world, Zlatan Ibrahimovic forms an exciting-looking front three here.
