Centre backs
Per Mertesacker – When the German first arrived from Werder Bremen back in the summer of 2011 he was widely derided for being slow and immobile, but since then the 29-year-old has adapted his game and is a fine defender now – 7/10.
Gary Cahill – Last term the England international finally showed that he was good enough to be relied upon in any scenario and that form saw Cahill named in the 2014 PFA Team of the Year for the first time – 8/10.
