As line-ups go, it's shaping up to be one of Chelsea's strongest.
First-choice goalkeeper Robert Sanchez keeps his place between the sticks, and Moises Caicedo provides genius in midfield. Marc Cucurella is a dogged presence on the left wing and - as in the fantasies of some Blues fans - Enzo Maresca remains in the dugout.
But this XI is unlikely to ever be played, as it exists only as an example of one of the west London's side's greatest weaknesses.
Chelsea is just four players away from fielding a full red card XI for the 2025-26 season, so bad is the side's discipline problem.
