Also given a nod in passing were Thiago Motta, Esteban Cambiasso, Diego Milito, Samuel Eto’o and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Ibra had actually left Inter the season before they lifted the Champions League, Scudetto and Coppa Italia trophies.

There was one other Serie A player in Mourinho’s ideal XI, in the form of current Roma left-back Ashley Cole due to their time together at Chelsea.

Mourinho’s Ideal XI: Cech; Zanetti, Carvalho, Terry, Cole; Makelele, Lampard, Sneijder, Ozil; Cristiano Ronaldo, Drogba
