The class of Chelsea
The Chelsea midfield comprising Eidur Gudjohnsen, Lampard, Damien Duff and Arjen Robben has looked a class apart this season.
Duff and Robben, operating on the flanks, were in sizzling touch and cut through several defences, leaving them spellbound.
Robben's presence on the field was however limited due to injuries as he played just 14 of the 35 league games.
Frenchman Claude Makelele was also a key player for Chelsea this season as he not only excelled in midfield, but also shored up the defence whenever needed. It came as no shock as Mourinho recently described him as one of the players of the season for Chelsea.
"I would make Makelele the Chelsea player of the year," Mourinho had said of the 32-year-old who featured in 33 games this season.
