Manchester United vs Chelsea: Combined XI

Manchester United v Chelsea - Premier League
Mourinho vs Conte: Who is the better manager?

Attack:

Chelsea v Manchester City - Premier League
Eden Hazard has once again been Chelsea's talisman this season

Both teams have an extremely talented attacking pool to choose from with the likes of Hazard, Alexis Sanchez, Anthony Martial and Alvaro Morata in their ranks.

In the end, I go with Hazard, Martial and Sánchez. Choosing Hazard is a no-brainer as he has been one of the top performers in the league yet again and is an automatic choice for the left wing position.

Martial has been almost equally brilliant for United, chipping in with nine goals and four assists as well as his ability to weave through the opposition defenses.

The choice of Sánchez may be a controversial one as he hasn't been in his best form for a few months. However, one cannot argue with the fact that he is a world-class player, and therefore gets ahead of others who have been in better form.

He plays up front, a role that he has played occasionally when he was at Arsenal. The possibility of the front three rotating with each other makes this an even more deadly trio.

Morata and Lukaku haven't been able to replicate their early-season form, while Rashford has lacked game-time to showcase his immense ability. Willian also gets an honorary mention as he has been in good form recently but misses out to better all-round players.
