#6 Mehrajuddin Wadoo
The 32-year-old from Srinagar is the epitome of the phrase ‘cool as a cucumber’. Being asked to captain the Chennaiyin side when you have the likes of Bernard Mendy and John Arne Riise on the same team is quite a compliment.
He might not be the most adventurous of full-backs, but he is wily as a fox. He uses his body brilliantly against wingers and is a neat passer of the ball.
Wadoo also has a good shot on him, which was seen earlier this season when he scored with a long-ranger that was too powerful for FC Goa's defence to handle, as the ball deflected into the goal.
Sir Alex Ferguson once famously said that Denis Irwin was the most valuable player in his squad, we wouldn’t bet against Marco Materazzi saying the same about his captain.
